Are they the group that got their first big break when they released a hit single of an old Hank Williams tune????
====================



Your seating chart
Will show you where
To plant your butt
Upon a chair.
Don't wander 'round,
Just feeling blue!
Your seating chart
Is there for you.
(Chorus)
When it comes down
To feet in pain
You'll look around
For chairs, in vain.
You'll walk the floor
The whole night through!
Your seating chart,
Was strong and true!
==================

Hemorrhoids from Uranus

This was the temporary name that was used by my friend's band when they had to follow The Hillbillies from Mars at a picking contest. The annnouncer introduced them to the audience with this name with some trepidation.

I remember them well.
We applauded their opening number as enthusiatically as they had played it, and Bo leaned into the microphone and said
"Like the cow told the farmer: Thank you for such a warm hand, on such a chilly evening!"

Actually, I don't remember them at all, since you just made them up, and it was off a Homer and Jethro record, but I wanted to acknowledge your contribution.

Good list, Sir Holmes.

I don't feel like reading all fifteen pages again, to see if I already mentioned a REAL group, who made a record I purchased.
"The Missing Otis Trio"

It was two guys, one on guitar and one on banjo, with an empty chair between them!

Thanks Mike. There have been lots of great entries, including some of yours. If I ever had a band, I would call it ZVBXRPL. I'm something of a Marx Brothers fan, and that's the "secret code" that Chico sells (along with stacks of books to decode the code) to Groucho at the horse racing track as a "tip"... very funny scene in the movie "A Day at the Races".

Reminds me of the time, some years back, when attorneys for Sergio Valenti sued a condom manufacturer for naming their product
