History Music / QuietRiot

* DudeLooksLikeALady: Randy Rhoads was this during his time with Quiet Riot due to his long blond hairstyle and 5'7/105 pound frame. Rudy Sarzo would say that during his short time with Randy before Randy's departure for Ozzy's band (although Rudy would reunite with Randy in Ozzy's band before eventually returning to Quiet Riot following Randy's death), when he and Randy went clothes shopping, they went to women's stores for Randy's clothes due to not finding the right size at men's stores. The fact that Randy also cited David Bowie guitarist Mick Ronson as a visual influence also helped.

* GodzillaThreshold: Taken literally. At the end of the music video for their cover of "Mama Weer All Crazee Now", one of the guys in the auditorium throws a flag at the screen, and a giant version of Kevin Dubrow comes out and wrecks the auditorium before being encountered by a giant version of the Man with the Metal Mask, who is then put on a stretcher and examined.
