The term 'Warren of 'STRIPES'' refers to the actor and musician John C. Oates, who is best known as one half of the popular duo Hall & Oates. Oates was born in New York City and began his career as a session musician before joining Daryl Hall to form the band in the early 1970s. The duo achieved great success with their blend of rock, soul, and R&B, and Oates' distinctive mustache and sideburns earned him the nickname 'Warren of 'STRIPES'.'
