This time we visit with The Dummies who stopped by wdoa.com circa 2003. Formed in the early 2000's we have Dirty Walter, (Walt Lab) on vocals /guitar, Johnny O...Bass, Ian Hickey, on drums, Dan Hickey on Guitar. Influenced by The Ramones and The Queers, they played true straight ahead Punk Rock. Shortly after gaining attention, they changed their name to The Brainless Wonders when they discovered another group called The Dummies, and didn't want any legal hassles. An all time favorite in the city, they played along side all the Wormtown Bands gaining a loyal following. They released two CD's as BW via Average Day Productions that are long since out of print. As was the case back then, they disbanded and left the fans wanting more. Walter went on to form The Flicks, played along side Joe Queer for a while, returned to the scene as a member of After the Blackout and now currently playing with Dirty Walter and the Smelltones who perform punk rock cover versions of classic 50's & 60's hits.
