Biography
Big Boys were an Austin, Texas punk band formed in 1979 by Randy 'Biscuit' Turner, Tim Kerr and Chris Gates. Pioneers of skate punk, they fused hardcore with funk rhythms and a horn section, and made their name with theatrical, participatory live shows. Their albums include 'Where's My Towel / Industry Standard' (1981), 'Lullabies Help the Brain Grow' (1983) and 'No Matter How Long the Line Is at the Cafeteria, There's Always a Seat!'. The band split in the mid-1980s, and Turner died in 2005.
