"The finale of the first season of Everybody's Live With John Mulaney on Netflix closed with Sleater-Kinney and Fred Armisen covering Kim Wilde's '80s classic "Kids in America." For the season wrap party, Mulaney asked them to perform a few Ramones covers. They had so much fun doing it, they decided to keep it going. They learned a full set and played two sold-out Halloween shows in Portland and you can watch video of that below."
"Having now given the group a name, The Return of Jackie and Judy (named after a song on the band's 1980 album End of the Century), they're taking the tribute act on the road. So far they've only announced one show - Bottlerock in Napa, CA in June - but they say we can expect a few more "select live appearances across the country." Stay tuned."
The Everybody's Live With John Mulaney finale featured Sleater-Kinney and Fred Armisen covering Kim Wilde's '80s hit "Kids in America." A season wrap party request led them to perform several Ramones covers, which they enjoyed enough to continue. The musicians learned a full Ramones set and played two sold-out Halloween shows in Portland, with video available. The group named itself The Return of Jackie and Judy, taken from a song on the Ramones' 1980 album End of the Century. The tribute act is going on the road, with Bottlerock in Napa announced and more select live appearances expected.
