A Band with Shoulder Pads

as a visual trope

In american football all the players wear shoulder pads which gives them effective v-shaped bodies so that they look like cartoon superheroes.

In rock music, a lot of the players play guitar or bass so that the effective shape of their bodies looks as if they are holding and manipulating their own erect genitalia.

All that is left to do is to combine these two visual tropes so that either football players with their exaggerate shoulders do more manipulating of their own exaggerated sexual organs, or rock musicians, which I was thinking would be easier, do more wearing of exaggerated shoulder pads while they are already manipulating their own exaggerated sexual organs.

So this is an idea of a band where the only visual trope is to emphasize the width of the shoulders of the band members and emphasize the phalicness of the guitars and basses.
