Influences
The music of the Lovely Eggs is mainly influenced by the ecstasy of the modern mind and all its trappings. For those people who want to find us through a musical influence search, we would like to shout the following bands from the rooftops...The Velvet Underground, Daniel Johnston, Red Crayola, Sonic Youth, Scout Niblett, the Brian Jonestown Massacre, The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band, Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers, Bikini Kill, The Make-Up, Pavement, Stereolab, Moldy Peaches, The Beach Boys, The Fall, Serge Gainsbourg, Can, Neu and on and on et cetera
David and Holly are lovely eggs. They like to play music together and share a drink (although David doesnt like Strongbow anymore. It doesnt agree with him.) Holly likes books and historical things. David doesnt like books and historical things so much. He prefers cine light shows and fixing things that are broken. Oh, and collectibles. Is this anything to do with the music? Why but of course. This (my dear Watson) tells you everything and nothing all at once.

thanks for the nice comment -- your songs made me laugh, extremely hard, so that milk came out of my nose. And I wasn't even drinking milk at the time.
My old group, The Pilgrims, was sort of like you only not as funny.
