The Didjits were formed in Champaign-Urbana -- home of the University of Illinois -- in 1985 by brothers Rick (guitar/vocals) and Brad Sims (drums).

But while the demise of the Didjits was a disappointment, Sims hasn't exactly been languishing in the interim.
The Supersuckers' hopped-up, down and dirty rock 'n' roll was close enough kin to the Didjits'; their onstage demeanor has been described as arrogant, and Sims's act, which includes flashing satanic symbols, lewdly wagging his tongue, and requesting that the audience kiss his derriere, could be characterized as at least that.
With the Didjits my brother complained for years about money, and these guys are excited about getting free beer." At 34, Sims is the band's eldest member by far, and many of his peers from Chicago's punk-rock heyday have moved on to more mature musical projects.

 Didjits- The Curse of Detroit Metal?
