Chomping on onions

Pseudo Echo in the music video for their 1986 hit, Funky Town. Pierre Pierre is on the right.

It has been announced that Jim Carrey will be playing an obnoxious Frenchman in his next film, Pierre Pierre. I snickered quietly when I read this story. Why? Pierre Pierre (real name Pierre Gigliotti) was also the stage name of the bass/keytar player in Aussie rock band Pseudo Echo, who still tour around Australia to audiences of nostalgic generation X'ers. I've also been testing out Blogger's new image caption feature, as seen above.
