Why they might be annoying:

    But for his towering cowlick, The Doctor could be comparable to Pete Burns.
    Jackson took his nickname from his failure to gain entry into medical school!
    Yes, the Anadin Brothers were women.
    They went on to become a tribute band (in the vein of Mini Kiss).
    McGuire and the Doctor felt the 1980s to be a rather dull musical decade.
    Vom and the Doctor tried to throw Searle out of a hotel window.

Why they might not be annoying:

    The Doctor was a former disc jockey who ended up reviving the psychedelic period at his club (The Clinic).
    They made excellent use of psychedelia, glitter rock styles, and kabuki makeup.
    The early Anadins (including Wendi and Colette) were former synchronized swimmers, which helped their unison choreography.
    ‘Spirit in the Sky’ received silver certification in the UK and the #1 spot in more than 30 nations.
    Wendi was the mother of the Doctor’s three kids!
