'''Love Fist''' is a Scottish [[wp:hair metal|hair metal]] band in the [[3D Universe]] and [[HD Universe]] featured in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]], and referred to as an Easter Egg in all of the following games until [[Grand Theft Auto V]] when one of the members makes a physical appearance. The band is composed of [[Jezz Torrent]] ("Jizz" if said with a Scottish accent, a slang term for semen) and [[Willy]], [[Dick]], and [[Percy]] (all slang terms for the penis). Willy is the only band member that does not accompany the band when they go out into the city since Tommy chauffeurs them. [[Tommy Vercetti]] performs various tasks for the band in [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]], such as saving them from a [[The Psycho|murderous fan]] out to kill them and attaining their "love juice" (which is a slang term for semen), which they claim to need before they go on stage. He also brings them [[Mercedes Cortez]] to "keep them company".


'''Love Fist''' is a Scottish [[wp:hair metal|hair metal]] band featured in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]], and referred to as an Easter Egg in many of the following games since. The band is composed of [[Jezz Torrent]] ("Jizz" if said with a Scottish accent, a slang term for semen) and [[Willy]], [[Dick]], and [[Percy]] (all slang terms for the penis). Willy is the only band member that does not accompany the band when they go out into the city since Tommy chauffeurs them.

He also brings them [[Mercedes Cortez]] to "keep them company".
Love Fist is managed by [[Kent Paul]] in 1986 and at the time are on their "Steel Heart Stone Cold Prostate" tour, which, during its stop in Vice City, had security provided by [[Mitch Baker|Mitch Baker's]] [[Vice City Bikers|biker gang]]. By 1992 they are only a three-man band, as seen on a [[Vinyl Countdown]] billboard (either Willy or Percy leaves the group). The band broke up at least once in between 1992 and 1998, since there is a billboard visible in GTA Liberty City Stories which advertises the band's comeback tour. In GTA IV the SuperStar franchise in The Triangle, Algonquin includes an illuminated display which flashes "SuperStar.. Starring.. The Mighty.. Love Fist".

Not to be confused with the Love Fist Limo, a modified version of Stretch.

Love Fist is a Scottish hair metal band in the 3D Universe and HD Universe featured in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and referred to as an Easter Egg in all of the following games until Grand Theft Auto V when one of the members makes a physical appearance. The band is composed of Jezz Torrent ("Jizz" if said with a Scottish accent, a slang term for semen) and Willy, Dick, and Percy (all slang terms for the penis). Willy is the only band member that does not accompany the band when they go out into the city since Tommy chauffeurs them. Tommy Vercetti performs various tasks for the band in Vice City, such as saving them from a murderous fan out to kill them and attaining their "love juice" (which is a slang term for semen), which they claim to need before they go on stage. He also brings them Mercedes Cortez to "keep them company".

Love Fist is managed by Kent Paul in 1986 and at the time are on their "Steel Heart Stone Cold Prostate" tour, which, during its stop in Vice City, had security provided by Mitch Baker's biker gang. By 1992 they are only a three-man band, as seen on a Vinyl Countdown billboard (either Willy or Percy leaves the group). The band broke up at least once in between 1992 and 1998, since there is a billboard visible in GTA Liberty City Stories which advertises the band's comeback tour. In GTA IV the SuperStar franchise in The Triangle, Algonquin includes an illuminated display which flashes "SuperStar.. Starring.. The Mighty.. Love Fist".

During in game dialogue several secrets are revealed about the band members, lead singer Jezz Torrent apparently used to have sex with sheep, drummer Dick is a huge fan of Duran Duran, guitarist Percy sleeps with bunny pajamas and bassist Willy likes to wear woman's underwear (he publicly flaunts it on K-Chat, saying "I've about had it with wankers ripping off my vibe, I wore women's clothing first"). Jezz Torrent sings about cross-dressing on "Dangerous Bastard" and Tommy accuses the entire band of bisexuality, to which they do not offer a reply.
