Notes:  Just a couple of guys hootin' and a hollarin' about things that keep them up at night. From these humble beginnigns and a bit of college radio airplay a maniac was born. Mojo, Skid and their unique vision of the world at large is captured here for all to enjoy. The washboard carrys the beat and propels us forward through the tales and stories of life under the trestles and bridges of Mojo's mind. Skid moved on to do some solo work as well as some music with the Whirling Spurs. Mojo did a short stint with the Pleasure Barons and continues his solo enevours. Another nice flea market find.

Line Up:

Mojo Nixon: vocals, guitar and foot
Skid Roper: upright washboard and other stuff
