Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

Jeff Moore:
The Egg I heard and have the cassette from was a previous incarnation of The Presidents of The United States of America as one of the campus bands at SUNY Purchase. Or maybe all there was in common was Chris Ballew and his songs.
Uncle Michael:
I'll bet your The Presidents of The United States of America also wasn't the other band called Presidents of The United States of America.
