    And I like their music: Mungo Jerry. "In The Summertime" is one of my favorite songs. Growing up we had a boat called the Summer Wind. My dad and my three brothers and I would go trawling in Vermillion Bay. When we'd get home to clean the catch, we'd always play that song in honor of our boat.

    When I was at LSU, 1983-87, I seam to recall a band called "Shot Down In Ecuador" or something like that, never heard them play but always thought that was a cool name for a band.

    Alltime favorite: Johnny and The Moondogs :thumb:
    Honorable Mention: The Nerk Twins
