Way easy. Daniel Ash, Kevin Haskins, David J., Peter Murphy.
Now: what was the term that was used to describe bands like Blood & Roses, Southern Death Cult, Sex Gang Children and Brigandage circa 1983 before the name "gothic rock" really stuck?

Gloom Rock? Doom Rock?
Who was called a "Dirty F*cker" by Steve Jones when he tried to flirt with a certain Goth icon live on TV.

Nope, t'aint it!
Try again.
Looks like Haunted House and I tied, though, posting our answers to the Bauhaus question at about the same time. So take your pick.

Which member of Specimen went on to play with Siouxsie and the Banshees after Specimen split?

Jon Klein of course. But my favorite banshee will always be Robert Smith.
What musician has worked with Mephisto Walz, Sex Gang Children, Christian Death, Shadow Project, and currently has a relatively well-known band? (that lucky bastard)

I am still on the edge my seat waiting for someone to guess right on this one! (because I don't know and am very curious to find out!)

Haha, that's easy. It was an incident involving Bill Grundy, Siouxsie, and the Sex Pistols. Bill Grundy tried to flirt with Siouxsie.
Here's the video of the incident.

I have no idea, Morrigan. I give up!
In the meantime, everybody knows that icon of male deathrock fashion, Johnny Slut, keyboardist for the band Specimen. However, who's the VOCALIST for that band?

Is the writer Anne Rice? I wouldn't call her goth, (personally I wouldn't refer to her as a writer, either...) but I suppose that a lot of goths like her work.
The only singer I can think of that he had a connection with was Sinead O'Conner in Butcher Boy... but she isn't goth, so I know that isn't it.

Olly Wisdom.
I used to have a ferret called Olly J Wisdom. Or 'Mr Wisdominus' for short.

I wanted to answer Drac's question!
Johnny Slut is awesome, but I don't like that almost no one knows any of the other Specimen members.

Oops.. sorry.
You can ask the new question, though. I'd rather not show off my ignorance by asking something that everyone would find too easy to answer.

Haha, I had already asked one and no one seemed to find it:
What musician has worked with Mephisto Walz, Sex Gang Children, Christian Death, Shadow Project, and currently has a relatively well-known band?

William Coulter/William Faith//Billy Bones
@Delicate_torture: Yeah, I'm not a fan of Rice, either, but love her or loath her, she is embraced into the goth fold by many.
As for Sinead O'Connor - definitely not goth! Try again! Here's a hint ~ "Billy Hatchet" (too easy)
