Adam and the Ants made Music for Ant Humans.

Adam and the Ants made music for ant humans. Their music was music from the 1980s music scene from the United Kingdom. Not many bands in 2022 make music for ant humans and many people wonder why. This music phenomenon of the 1980s was likely attributed to the anti-ant policies of Margarete Thatcher as a response to the war in the Falklands Islands. What is Adam and the Ants net worth? It is hard to determine Adam and the Ants net worth but it is believed that they generative significant income still from touring and the sale of educational ant farms to students of antomology around the world.

Saw them like 4 years ago at the King Center in Florida, their still killing it and having a good time, can’t ask for more.

Wow! That's amazing. I loved the hell out of the two cassettes I bought at the local supermarket around the age 13. Nothing else like them ever and still really listenable to me unlike some other stuff I was into when I was just a wee lad.

Have a friend i grew up with here in Florida that was always an AA fan, this was always one of their tour stops, it’s a really nice theater / performance center so he comes around every couple years and she sees him eve time this time she dragged me along. He’s one of those that will hang out after the show for pictures and autographs and things. He’s not stupid he has a set fan base and he makes sure they are fans.

That's cool... not sure if you know but a lot of the music uses the Burundi beat from the Burundi tribe in Africa. It was sort of popular at the time it can also be heard in the music of Bow Wow Wow.

Pre-COVID he was touring quite a bit, fun shows, it’s always good when the performer really loves doing what he does and you can tell.

spot on about the depp look ?

Well actually it's not a Depp look but the opposite. Johnny Depp was quoted saying that he used Adam Ant as part of the inspiration to the look he developed for that character in the Pirates of the Caribbean films.

What just blows my mind is how invented and out there musicians and such were in the 80s without resorting to mindless vulgarity.

Another band that was out there but I loved also wasn’t vulgar in any way was Oingo Boingo. Man…..those were the days!

I never really listened to Oingo Boi go, will have to check them out. No shortage of great music from the 80s to discover despite listening to so much already!
