Bizarros are putting out a new CD someday soon... based on their recent performance, I'd guess it would be alright .. Don Parkins is still a hell of a guitar player.. Nicholis still sounds snotty.. Just don't look at the pictues, if there are any.

Several months ago somebody posted a video of some version of Tin Huey and Chi Pig doing a live set including a version of "Tumbling Dice" and it was awesome.

i like the Waitrsses first single CLones (which was sung by Tin hueys Chris Butler)
tin huey's chris butler was the creative force behind the waitresses. (though he found a better singer to sing most of their songs.)

I loved Contents Dislodged back in the day. Although their influences are apparent (Devo, Ubu, Zappa, Beefheart, I'm guessing Residents, plus a debt to Soft Machine that I didn't pick up on at the time) they combined them in interesting ways, and bits of many of their songs pop up in my head on a regular basis.

Here is link to video I mentioned above: https://www.facebook.com/hugh.aylward.9/videos/756327181053549/A little further digging reveals that it is from April 1st, 1978 at a place called JBs in Kent. Jerry Wexler (and perhaps some other record company execs) was apparently in the audience, calling them “The Next Rolling Stones” and they were offered a recording contract, I think.

I still have Ralph Carney's phone number in one of my old address books. I talked to him on the phone once--I think he called me when I was first starting to write about music seriously, and the conversation was great, a very nice guy. I wish I could remember more of it, but I was kind of gobsmacked he got in touch.

Think I might start a thread just for that
I think Disinformation may have been the first cd I ever bought on eBay back in 1999. Played it couple times, thought it was nowhere near as interesting as the debut, and filed it away. I’ve recently dug it out and reevaluated it. Not as overtly wacky as Contents Dislodged, it’s still plenty odd. Liner notes give props to Yardbirds, Beefheart, T Rex and Bartok, none of which I really hear. I hear Rundgren, Split Enz maybe, and hints of where The Waitresses were headed. And there’s a Robert Wyatt cover, but there’s a lot I can’t quite pinpoint.

Okay, the Devo/Boingo stuff is still there too.
