Wendy O Williams got arrested here in Milwaukee in '81

LINK

Occasionally O’Williams would wear clothes, but her usual attire consisted of two pieces of duct tape on her breasts, a dollop of strategically placed whipped cream, and a motorcycle helmet.

So we can assume that Milwaukee police had a heads-up on O’Williams Jan. 17 appearance at the Palms nightclub, 2616 W. State St.

Ms. O’Williams did not disappoint.

She performed some of her best ditties…Got a problem in my heart, got a fire in my pants…The day of the humans is gone, we’ll laugh and sing while we chew on your bones…We are the brain dead, we march with no head.

Then O’Williams performed her latest show stopping moves. She got intimate with a sledgehammer.

Waiting backstage were Milwaukee’s finest who placed the singer under arrest for “conduct prohibited in a licensed premises.”

An altercation occurred outside the club and O’Williams wound up face down on the ice-covered parking lot. Additional charges were filed for resisting arrest.

O’Williams fought the law and the law lost. A trial was held. The sledgehammer was paraded before a jury of O’Williams peers. (If not exactly her peers, at least they were twelve people not offended by a punker porn star sporting a Mohawk.)
