Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols and Public Image Ltd (PiL) was born on this day in 1956, making him 66 today. 

In honor of this “Rotten” fellow, for today’s 9:30 Coffee Break, what other bands can you think of that “stink”?

No, we’re not talking about bands that are bad at music - to be super clear - we mean bands whose names are literally stinky!
