4. Halo Friendlies (Judita Wignall, Ginger Reyes, Claudia Rossi and Natalie Bolanos) who just rock! Natalie shreads on lead guitar, Judita plays the very cool rhythm guitar, Ginger is the master on bass lines while Claudia keeps the beat. The Halos decided to take an hiatus and pursue solo projects in 2004. One of those projects in Ginger's Ginger Sling.

haha, what a shrimp!

she needs to dye her hair a whiter blonde to look like darcy

i wonder what kind of gimmicky outfit billy is gonna make her wear

Complete eye candy. Certainly an upgrade over D'arcy or Melissa in that department.

http://www.thebangles.org/halos/xgames/xgames18.jpg
this pic SCREAMS D'arcy. she's a cutie, too... idk, I like the blondes

she should dress hotter

better tan than d'arcy

Certainly an upgrade over Melissa in that department.

Cant say much about D'arcy and her duck lips, but you cant be serious.

d'arcy has smoked piles of crack bigger than that girl

she has a far more voluptuous rack than d'arcy. rock on.

id hit that.

god she's hot

She looks best in the X-Games pic. In the rest of them it looks like she's really short.

Pre-1995 Darcy >>>>this chick

d00ds for all we know that guy from buddyhead is just another big lying d00uche

When D'arcy sees the new bassist, I'm sure she will have a good chuckle over this. Imitation is the highest form of flattery right? That last pic of Ginger with the Gwen lookalike, I swear there are at least 20 pictures of Darcy that almost perfectly resemble this girl. I wonder how it feels knowing somebody is obviously using you in an attempt to recreate their past. That being said, this is the most attractive girl Billy has had on stage with him since very early D'arcy. And I'm probably just giving Darcy that kind of credit for sentimental reasons.

Of course, who knows if she even is the bassist yet?

d00ds for all we know that guy from buddyhead is just another big lying d00uche

id still hit it.

that tiny thing can play bass? lol how cute!

she has horrible taste in footware.

d'arcy has smoked piles of crack bigger than that girl


...just when you thought a joke had been dead for seven or eight years, rg2k goes ahead and resucitates it




that tiny thing can play bass? lol how cute!


tina weymouth, man

Good post.

just wait and see what fame can do to this poor girl... d'arcy was hotter than her at that age

actually, this girl isn't hot at all...
dunno what you guys are drooling about

Pre-1995 Darcy >>>>this chick


oh redbull, you're such a purist

...just when you thought a joke had been dead for seven or eight years, rg2k goes ahead and resucitates it


im pretty sure d'arcy's been dead for seven or eight years.

Why the fuck wouldn't he just stick with MADM...?

Man This girl is hot!

...

i thought she might have been cool, but then i saw her lameass girly black punk rock shoes

it does seem like a mini-darcy. but hey if we cant get darcy might as well get a mini-darcy.

actually, this girl isn't hot at all...
dunno what you guys are drooling about

I agree. Just cause she has something of a chest and is blonde doesn't mean she's some ridiculously hot person... At Ginger's age, D'arcy was FAR better looking than she could ever be.

Definitely not hotter than Melissa. Melissa was hot AND a redhead. Also seemed very nice.

regarding her fashion choice.. note these pictures are 2-5 years old.. here's the more recent pics from myspace.. (haven't really seen these posted) .. of course, BC will likely force a new look

<i>Disclaimer: After dealing with a Mexican asshole step-father and his disgusting family for nine years, I have a somewhat sour disposition towards our friends from the south. Not all, but there's a bad taste in my mouth.</i>

According to her MySpace page, Ginger is Hispanic or something. I think Ginger is super cute, until she actually starts to look Hispanic, like in that first MySpace pic. Then I don't want her to have anything to do with my precious Pumpkins.

The second pic reminds me of any girl I'd bump into at a No Doubt concert.

The second to last pic reminds me of Karen Filippelli from "The Office."

And I think she's absolutely smokin' as a redhead in the fourth pic, and I pray to god she goes on stage looking like that.

is that an appendix scar?

is that an appendix scar?

if you mean abortion scar, then yes.

are you saying she was an aborted fetus that by some miracle survived?

if you mean abortion scar, then yes.

One part of me thinks this is an absolutely retarded comment. The other part of me is laughing my ass off.

probably both things you said are valid

For all we know it's just an imprint from her pants...

shes not great people...

D'arcy, melissa, Paz and now this chick....none of them have been particularly hot.

Man, she looks a lot like Elvis Costello in this pic.

I can't believe anyone's protesting her hotness. There's not a single chick on earth you could talk about on netphoria without a bunch of people belittling her hottery. Stop pretending to have refined taste in women you knaves.

she has horrible taste in footware.

--certainly what every heterosexual male was thinking

It would be so hilarious if she actually isn't the bassist, and we've had all of this discussion about her for absolutely nothing.

yep

I need to see what she looks like naked.

it's true, though..the paul frank shoes are très tacky.

I dont like Ginger Reyes. Looks too slutty even for a slut.

Hopefully for your sake you're a female, otherwise you're a homosexual.

Yeah I'm pretty sure if Netphoria was classy, we wouldn't have a boob album. We also wouldn't have an ad with Keifer Sutherland requesting money because we can't reach the boob album.

"Nooooooooooooo"

Im just saying Melissa, D'arcy, Paz > Ginger. Thats all.

and actually Melissa>all of em. Billy should have got her instead.

Ginger looks quite spunky to me.

i don't understand how some of you think MADM and Paz are hotter because they are not.

Why the fuck wouldn't he just stick with MADM...?

Because she is her own person with a mind of her own who cannot be easily pushed around. It's obvious that Billy enjoys working with yes people and he is the one making the big decisions. :)

Anybody who says she is unattractive is just trying to be contrarian. I'm not saying a word as to how this applies to the Pumpkins. On first glance, Melissa IS a better fit. But Ginger is a good looking girl and if you think otherwise, go back to sucking Rose McGowan's tits you goth faggots.

I don't think anyone says she's not attractive. Melissa is just overall hotter.

Very true.

Mellissa is a little too old looking / ginger-kid for my liking

she looks sort of Peruvian

Shes adorable

I don't see how Melissa is hot in any way, she looks old =)

The thing I dont get it this...
How are two 40-year old guys gonna share the stage with 2 uh...much much younger peeps. Melissa has the maturity factor (as in, her looks are less of a clash with obviously aging Pumpkins). Ginger? Uh...not so much.

In that one pic she looks like Britany Murphy...

I hope she has morals...or at least some sort of classiness. Id hate for the Pumpkins to actually become some sort of joke...


edit: clarity...

little late for that

notice when we talk about the male members we talk about their skill but with females we talk about how attractive they look? and by we i mean you sexist idiots, not myself.

Unless you have listened to her underground, girl, pop, punk stuff, all we have to discuss is looks dumbass.

haha, I don't really care about it either. just as long as their playing is tight and they have good stage stances, im pretty sure Billy is teaching them killer stances and execution

. Melissa has the maturity factor. Ginger? Uh...not so much.

...


What the fuck is the maturity factor? What because Melissa is older, means she must be more mature?

and who the hell cares anyways, Doesnt all that matter is Ginger rocks the bass?

LOL @ all this. Somebody quote this...quick...

I will set my wiener on fire if this girl is in the band.

knaves

i've never heard of this term before...

Complete eye candy. Certainly an upgrade over D'arcy or Melissa in that department.

:erm: darcy maybe...but melissa? i don't think so...

What the fuck is the maturity factor? What because Melissa is older, means she must be more mature?

Maturity is not limited to the realm of intellectual capacity or whatever. Im refering more to the fact that Ginger and Jeff would obviously clash more with two old rock stars than Melissa would, seeing as Melissa has a more mature LOOK.

:rolleyes:

i think i'd rather just see billy and jimmy as a duo than with some stand-in members. they'd be the rockinest duo on the planet.

Scrolling down, I thought davin was continuing this pic post, with another deformed person... I guess Melissa is a good bassist, though... even if her arm really does extend past her elbow.

better tan than d'arcy

:cheers:

:)

Very true.

Glad someone agrees.
