oy band who we are
Was that oy, or oi? For three teenage musicians accused of anti-Semitism, it's more than just a difference in spelling. The three were suspended from Hasbrouck Heights (N. J.) High School after somebody complained they had used the word as the chorus for a punk rock song they played at a talent contest. But the teens said they don't know oy a Yiddish expression that could be translated as oh from oi, which is a brand of punk music.
