I figured that you had. :Kaleun_Cheers:

I had high hopes for those guys but, true to Hollywood tradition, they burned out like a handful of asteroids in the night sky.
I guess the band tried to keep it going after TortElvis left the stage (he literally went back to his day job at the dairy) but that was about it. :haha:

The band played on, in various incarnations; the original band was an amalgam of members of other local bands, random local musicians, and, occasionally, some studio cats; TortElvis did eventually return to the group and was in and out for an extended period...

The idea came from a trend at the time to lampoon genres, a sort of low-tech mashup; one other local act was El Vez, the "Mexican Elvis", who was the alter ego of one of the band members of The Zeros, Robert Lopez...
