I felt kinda like a dick for being rather negative in Krokus' Roughhouse thread (sorry bro!) so I thought I'd throw my own "forgotten band" thread out there to make up for it... anyone here remember/ever heard of MISSDEMEANOR, from Staten Island, NY? I caught these gals live a few times in the late 80s/early 90s on the urging of my buddy Ralph, whose short-lived band had played a gig with them previously; he developed a crush on their drummer at that show (I believe she's the one in the pink zebra-striped top in the above pic) so he called me up the next time they played around our 'hood, saying "YOU GOTTA COME SEE THESE GIRLS, THEY'RE HOT!" Haha. So yeah, I went to two or three of their shows (I believe I may have been present at their last-
ever show in New Jersey, which is mentioned in an interview I'll link at the end of this post), and they were pretty damn good stuff. Commercial hard rock i.e. Aerosmith, Ratt, Van Halen, '80s KISS, that sorta thing. They released a couple of demos and recorded an album for a label that went bankrupt before it could be released, so that's lost to the ages.
There's an interview with their guitarist here at the "Metal Maidens" site which has way more info than I can provide for those who are interested in learning more:

And of course, since even bands that have been defunct for over a decade have MySpaces these days, here's theirs
