I can’t even begin to share with you my experience. I know that the following picture taken LIVE at the show yesterday and subsequent band info is enough for you to know.

Adrian Zmed’s wikipedia entry shows that these are indeed his sons. Forget interviews with the likes of Nick Lowe, I can’t believe you didn’t forge an opportunity to interview these two and, could it have been possible, maybe lead to an interview with AZ himself.
I know Mr. Mod is in that exclusive club that I belong to, The T,J, Hooker Fan Club? Sammy, are you a member as well?
Et tu, Al? In college Sammy and I bonded over Hooker as much as we did music. He owns the box set in dvd and has been known to travel with it.
What box set?!?! I only know of (and own) the Complete Season 1 & 2. I wasn’t aware the other seasons were released. Tell me more.
If ever there was something for which the phrase “it’s so bad, it’s good” holds true, it’s TJ Hooker. The acting – by the regulars, guest stars, cameos – is uniformly terrible and the plots were laughable. Put it all together and it’s great.
Maybe that’s what he has, the Complete Seasons 1 & 2. A cable station, HDNET (?), has been running the show nightly the last 6 months or so. All that you mention about the show’s strengths still holds up.
I’m thrilled to learn of the rocking of the sons of Officer Vince Romano, but am disappointed we have no iphone proof of this event. Sometimes a reporter has to overcome their understandable infatuation and awe to get the story. Especially when seeing that the Janks band link has already been suspended. I wanted to send them a pitch about launching a TV show of 2 brothers that are cops during the day, and rock stars at night. Possible title: Wanted: Zmed or Alive. Still working on that.
Great premise for a show and an even better title!
Now, I don’t have a band but there appear to be many RThers who do. One should immediately consider changing the name of their band to “The Sons Of Adrian Zmed”. Not sure why the The Janks are The Janks as opposed to that name but it’s an even better name for a band that is Zmedless
I’ve got the “Complete First and Secons Seasons”, which comes with the original TV promos for 24 episodes. The promos alone are worth the price.
I warmly greet you, al, as a fellow brother and supporter of Thomas Jefferson Hooker and the renowned LCPD.
Yo Chick. “Wanted: Zmed or Alive” is beyond brilliant. I shed a tear for what could be.
I do find it oddly coincidental that the thejanksmusic.com site was suspended within a day of this post going up…
It gets better. Adrian Zmed stars on the show as the brother’s police captain, band manager, and their FATHER!
USA would greenlight this tomorrow.
Above all, the Sons of Zmed did not want to ride on their father’s coattails. They went through great lengths to hide their heritage through use of the Janks name. You exposed them. They had to move on. I’m sure a new URL with a new band name was up within minutes.
Any way we can work Whorewolf into the plot?
Wait! Whaaaaaat?! …
Their FATHER!!! No way!!!!!!!
I think Belladonna may played a whorewolf in one of her delightful romps…you guys may want to consider litigation.
I really wanted to post Deke Dickerson’s instrumental tribute, “T.J. Tuck & Roll”, here, but I can’t find it on the YousTube.
