Uranus were a rock and roll band from London, Ontario that formed during the late seventies and were known as a great cover band, covering Buddy Holly’s classic tune which was also the moniker for today’s workout. Uranus is also a planet. Lastly, it is also happens to be where the grip ventriloquism emanates from.Ventrilo-Grip.
