Cum & Go
Onstage, the Jack Daniels-swigging, wheelchair-wheelie Steven Dynasty and Yamaha keyboard-pervert Chuck Hollywood seem to have just emerged from the ooze of the slimiest bar in LA. That's the only observation you have time for before you are overcome with the giggles at Cum & Go's raunchy originals. Or groaning -- their inspired version of "My Heart Will Go On (Love Theme from Titanic)" makes up for every treacly replay of Celine Dion's. We discovered the band opening for the Zsa Zsas; our reporter Kyle suggests we disclaim his interview as "possibly fictional." You decide. We don't miss a single gig. cia romano, spring 2003 NAME:"Chuck Hollywood and Steven Dynasty." OCCUPATION:"Band." QUOTE:"Rack 'em up, break my balls." BAND:"Cum & Go."

You got to work your arms!" [The band says they also star in various "amateur films," and have two other CDs (In Yo Face and Pay at the Pump) that were huge in Iowa.
