this is a controversial argument that i don’t really agree with, but if it applies to the pistols, it applies to the beatles and the ramones and the stones at various points in their careers, too

Oldham was entirely managing the Stones' image in the early days in a way we'd associate with boy bands: the marketing of them as the bad boy counterparts to the clean cut Beatles, emphasizing Jagger over Jones, firing Stewart because he didn't fit the image, &c.

I honestly don’t really believe it either, and frankly have no interest in defining a “boy band” one way or another, just an amusing thought.
