Yes, the band was called Egg Hunt. Not sure what the other one you are talking about was with the guys from the Meatmen.

I don't know if I've ever heard them, but apparently one of their big hits was about construction tools (straight edges or something), and another one was about salad.

Attempts to entice Metallica hopeful Eric Avery have proved unsuccessful, leaving the trio to likely enlist the services of Alanis Morissette bassist Chris Chaney.

Smashing Pumpkins' old manager doesn't play drums anymore, so they're getting the guy from Dramagods.

FTW!

They hoped to rope in members of the Traveling Wilburys and the Plastic Ono Band - both of whom were unavailable.

No idea who'll sing and play lead guitar...I wonder whatever happened to the guy with the beard from Old And In the Way?

I heard he recently collaborated on an album of atmospheric instrumentals with Toni Halliday's husband and a guy who played guitar on Crash Test Dummies' God Shuffled His Feet and produced some rocking Jars of Clay hits.

Crap, my bad.

What I meant is that Dave Gahan (Paper Monsters) is working on a new album with Martin Gore (Conterfeit). However, their attempts get that guy from Erasure and Yaz to join them on tour are expected to fail.

/Much less funny the second time.
