| − | == About ==
| |
| − | 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.

| − | == Highlights ==
| |
| − | Toured across the US twice (more like 1.5 times, since they went broke & turned around in Illinois on trip #2). Mostly remembered for playing a show at the Coffee Club in Moorhead where Phil cut his head open on a stage light & got blood all over the place. Performed the South Dakota State Song on the Coolidge 50 compilation because the label could not find a band from South Dakota, apparently.
