...there's a video?

nope, Kim, definitely have NOT seen it. would very much like to, though!

and i bet they're fun live, though i've still never seen them...

The Residents - Bach Is Dead Robyn Hitchcock - Vibrating They Might Be Giants - Dead Translator - Everywhere That I'm Not

Actually, make that anything by the Residents, Gnu - surely one of the world's most original and delightfully and frustratingly cryptic bands ever.... I love them to bits. I wish I wrote the whole of "The Commercial Album". And "Freakshow". And "Duck Stab" And "......." etc etc..........

Just a bit bummed that they didn't finish their tribute to America's Composers Series. While maybe not as great as their own compositons, the two albums they did do (Hank Williams/J.P. Sousa and George Gershwin/James Brown) seem to have the same effect as their own when played on unsuspecting people at parties, etc.

Oh yeah, I forgot:

Shonen Knife - Tortoise Brand Pot Cleaner

:D 'tis a GREAT song, Gnu.

actually, their "Blue Oyster Cult" always makes one of my guitarists smile.

and remember. every band has a shonen knife who loves them. ;)

Tortoise Brand pot cleaner banishes dirt to the land of wind and ghosts.

...but don't you wanna be twist barbie...? :D
