Tube Tops 2000

Tube Tops 2000 are a punk rock supergroup that covered Gary Glitter's classic rock hit "Rock and Roll, Part 2." The song is currently the replacement for the Kansas City Chiefs touchdown celebration after the NFL asked teams to stop playing Glitter's version following Glitter's conviction on child molestation.

The version of the song was introduced in Chiefs games in the 2006 NFL season following a vote on the "new Chiefs touchdown song." The vote originally ended with P.O.D.'s "Boom" as the winner, but fans protested the outcome and requested a new band to play "Rock and Roll, Part 2" so that the tradition of their "We're gonna beat the hell outta you!" chant could continue. The song can be found on the Glam rock tribute compilation "Blockbuster: A 70's Glitter Glam Rock Experience", released in January 2001. The band comprises Eric Erlandson (Hole), Melissa Auf der Maur (Hole, Smashing Pumpkins), Clem Burke (Blondie), Pat Fear (White Flag), and Kathy Valentine (The Go-Go's).
