Guys With Ears

[MacVittie]

Have we ever gotten a comprehensive history on this group? I know that Dave played drums and sang, and that Cheeker was in the band, but who were the other members? Besides Bunsen, what other songs did they play/record? What about some past gigs, set lists, etc.? I'm looking to deepen my knowledge of and appreciation for this band.

When is the deluxe box set being released?

[Judge Smails]

I heard some talk that their amps went all the way up to 11.

[MacVittie]

is it true that Cheeker bit the head off of a live bat?

[pittphantoms]

I heard the drummer blew 30 guys and then had to have his gut pumped...

Wan't the pre-bearded Paul McCartney in that band?

[ihaveabadmonkey]

Little known fact: In 1995 they were supposed take a NJ Transit bus to a gig down the shore but at the last minute they gave up their seats to some local senior citizens going on a day trip to Atlantic City. That bus later sideswiped a guardrail on the Garden State Parkway. The seniors spilled their complimetary coffee on their polyester dresses. It was truly "The Day The Mumus Dyed".

You can learn all about Cheekers and his family on this DVD.

The football players they hired to run security at their Sadie Hawkins Dance gig got a little rough with one of the bussed-in kids.

[MacVittie]

I heard that they passed on Woodstock in order to appear on The Dick Cavett Show.

I was just listening to the night show they did a few weeks back.

Was Dave's pal Patty in Guy's With Ears?

[SinA]

when their lead singer David McDonald left the band, they languished for months before hiring Jon BonJovi.

I think Patty was in it, but CatMan was not.
