• Mike Burton - plays drums. It's his lifetime goal to sound like a washing machine falling down the stairs. You may think he has done so. • Helen Carter - sings, plays bass, writes songs and cuts her own hair. • Jeff Parlin - refers to himself as Primitive Pete but he's a small "g" guitar god. We formed this band just to trick him into playing with us.

We're a band. We make a big noise so you'll be surprised when you look over and see that only one of us is willing to stand up on stage. There will be no light show. There will be no cleavage. There might be a Nixon mask.
We play lots of early Who songs, Neil Young (think Crazy Horse), some Stones, some Pixies, Breeders, one Radiohead song, obscure Kinks, Syd Barrett, and a big handful of originals - whatever we can squeeze through our meat grinder.
We're not ashamed of covering other people's music. We write our own stuff too, and we bring our whole souls and weirdly fierce energy to everything we do.
Apparently we are now writing a rock opera.
"Hot Show. You guys have your own 'thing'. I think you are my favorite bar band. If you played at a bar every week, I would go. You would be responsible for my alcoholism and eventually, my widow would sue you." - Norm Wilson, The Human, Beauty Scene Outlaws
"You're Ballsy!" - some drunk girls, to Helen, after we played at Shifty's.
"It's not easy to get that sloppy Stones, Faces, Replacements thing right, but you guys do it. And you can do it sober!" - Patrick McAvoy
