Originally called Sidewalk Strut, the new band took the name Joey Vain and Scissors.  In the spirit of the times, several of the bandmembers took new names:  Phil Gammage was Phil Damage, the drummer Peter Roos became Peter Vacant, and their original guitarist Jerry Budwig took the name Sevin Sister (a play on the bug killer Sevin Dust I guess).  The Kunkels kept their real names.
