Silly punk rockers from Moorhead. They were the only band that learned their Madonna covers when [[Phil Leitch]] first tried to organize Madonnarama in the mid 90s. They acted goofy, sang songs about grocery stores and getting free pizza from [[Sarah Hassel]], made absurd zines (ChickenX, Trans Zine, White Crane Beggar, etc.) and had a lot of fun. For some reason, they really amused Nine Pound Hammer and [[Hammerhead]].
 +
 
 +
== Members ==
 +
*[[Phil Hunt]] (vocals)
 +
*[[Lon Jerome]] (guitar, backup vocals)
 +
*[[Justin Seng]] (bass)
 +
*[[Chris Blaze]] (drums) 
 +
 
 +
== Highlights ==
 +
*Toured across the US twice (more like 1.5 times, since they went broke & turned around in Illinois on trip #2).
 +
*Remembered for playing a show on August 19, 1995 at the Coffee Club in Moorhead where Phil cut his head open on a stage light & got blood all over the place.
 +
*When [[Meat Records]] released Draggin' Tracks compilation, The Trans Ams performed a set consisting of covers of every song/band on the CD in order of appearance at Bill & Aaron's request.
 +
*Performed the South Dakota State Song on the Coolidge 50 compilation because the label could not find a band from South Dakota, apparently.
 +
*From Carothers Brothers #5, "The Definitive Guide to Everything Punk Rock in the Moorhead/Fargo Area": Trans Am - four guys who defied the odds and played Cosmic Ark until their brains froze.

== Discography ==
 +
*S/T CD-R on [[Dart Records]] (2001) A not-officially-released, post-humous collection of the "Race The Devil" 7" and unrleased demos of the recording session, "Turbo" from the Draggin' Tracks compilation, the South Dakota State song, and additional unreleased demos recorded by [[Jim Zespy]]. Includes a full-color cover with photos & liner notes by Ross Kroetch. Only five copies of this exist. I'm surprised that we never put this out, actually. Even with all the mistakes in the unreleased tunes, it's really not too bad.

Silly punk rockers from Moorhead. They were the only band that learned their Madonna covers when Phil Leitch first tried to organize Madonnarama in the mid 90s. They acted goofy, sang songs about grocery stores and getting free pizza from Sarah Hassel, made absurd zines (ChickenX, Trans Zine, White Crane Beggar, etc.) and had a lot of fun. For some reason, they really amused Nine Pound Hammer and Hammerhead.

Members

Highlights

  • Toured across the US twice (more like 1.5 times, since they went broke & turned around in Illinois on trip #2).
  • Remembered for playing a show on August 19, 1995 at the Coffee Club in Moorhead where Phil cut his head open on a stage light & got blood all over the place.
  • When Meat Records released Draggin' Tracks compilation, The Trans Ams performed a set consisting of covers of every song/band on the CD in order of appearance at Bill & Aaron's request.
  • Performed the South Dakota State Song on the Coolidge 50 compilation because the label could not find a band from South Dakota, apparently.
  • From Carothers Brothers #5, "The Definitive Guide to Everything Punk Rock in the Moorhead/Fargo Area": Trans Am - four guys who defied the odds and played Cosmic Ark until their brains froze.

Discography

  • S/T CD-R on Dart Records (2001) A not-officially-released, post-humous collection of the "Race The Devil" 7" and unrleased demos of the recording session, "Turbo" from the Draggin' Tracks compilation, the South Dakota State song, and additional unreleased demos recorded by Jim Zespy. Includes a full-color cover with photos & liner notes by Ross Kroetch. Only five copies of this exist. I'm surprised that we never put this out, actually. Even with all the mistakes in the unreleased tunes, it's really not too bad.
