| Notes | Oingo Boingo was often compared to Devo throughout their career (due to both bands' affinity for quirky new wave, goofy stage acts, and most obviously, peculiar yet intriguing band names), though they never obtained the mainstream success that Devo did. This is Danny Elfman's band, the guy behind the Simpson's theme, and squillions of films, including most of Tim Burton's work, from Pee-Wee's Big Adventure to Mars Attacks! and Sleepy Hollow. The band was originally put together in the '70s by Danny's older brother, movie producer Richard Elfman, who needed music for a whacked-out, John Waters-esque flick he was working on, called Forbidden Zone. Enlisting his younger brother Danny Elfman (vocals, guitar), Steve Bartek (guitar), and Johnny "Vatos" Hernandez (drums), the group originally went by the name "Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo" before shortening it to Oingo Boingo. This is their last show together; a rare find on etree and great sound. Feast away! |
