Yay! The Dead Milkmen... the true sound of Philly. Listening to those old recordings, it cracks me up how thick their accents are.

Lessnotforget Serrated Edge: "Yeah, Charles Nelson Reilly, he's our man, He can't heal the sick with the touch of his hand, He can't walk on water, can't make wine flow; Just another greedy actor on the late late show" Who DOESN'T love songs about Charles Nelson Reilly?!

I know a woman who can see all around the world The world is full of electric signals that only she can seem to see And she tells me heaven's angels are watching over me There's a radio wired to my brain An experiment I can't explain I can hear the sounds of UFO's I can hear the sounds of souls crying -/- Soul Rotation is a criminally underrated album.

Thanks Jason! Need to spend some time on this one. I won a free coffee from our local shop (Shepherdstown, WV, not Paris that is) when I ID'd the Dead Milkmen playing on their always loud stereo -- seems I hear them once a week in there. (I think the youngster who gave me the coffee was more surprised that a square looking -- who am I kidding; square acting -- 42 year old could ID the Dead Milkmen.) One of my favorite gifts ever is a poster titled "Everybody Loves Dick". It's not with me at the moment but am I remembering correctly that it is a Dead Milkmen poster? I can't find it anywhere on the web.

xmutex: it was that bit that got me to start saying "Jumpin' Jesus on a Pogo Stick!" regularly. I love that "song." "He was a daaaredevil! (just like his old man)"

We joked that the four food groups for a band on the road were: beer, cigarettes, coffee, and 'Dung Bags'. What are Dung Bags you ask? (scientific terminology courtesy Tesco Vee from the Meatmen). These are microwavable bean and cheese burritos available at most fine convience stores and truck stops. Choice.
