1. Yummm...always my fave, Martha Quinn

That 'girl next door who gets freaky at concerts' thang was smokin'....

[enigmatic]

2. I had a huge crush on her when MTV started...

Is she still shilling her "memories" of MTV on college campuses?

[asthmaticeog]

3. Anyone else remember that Mojo Nixon & Skid Roper song

"Stuffin' Martha's Muffin?"

[Heidi]

4. oh. my. goodness.

I thought I was the only person on earth who remembered that song.

One of the best two days of my life were spent with a former SO, seeing Mojo Nixon and the Toad Liquors TWO NIGHTS IN A ROW at different Nebraska dives: once in a bowling alley and once in a bar. Absolutely wonderful!

[asthmaticeog]

18. Yow - from the looks of this thread

you're FAR from the only person on Earth to remember that tune. :hi:

Following Mojo around Nebraska sounds like a great time.

5. I love Mojo Nixon & Skid Roper!

That's a great song, as is the classic "Don Henley Must Die." :D

[Heidi]

7. "Vibrator Dependent"

is absolutely one of my favorite Mojo songs. Also "The Poontango."

[dolo amber]

10. I love

"Debbie Gibson is Pregnant With My Two-Headed Love Child"...for the title alone. :D

21. Hey dammit!! this is a Martha Quinn thread not a Mojo Nixon thread!!!

Andyes that is a hilarious title for a song. :bounce:

[tigereye]

23. don't let him get back together

with Glenn Frey. ( sp) Classic!

[redqueen]

6. You kidding?

It was the first thing I thought of when I saw the subject line!

[underpants]

8. Doesn't she have a show with Dweezil Zappa on the Food Network?

I think it was her.

[redqueen]

12. Does she?

If so, I haven't seen it...

Wow... what a concept.

[dolo amber]

13. Lisa Loeb

AND her glasses.

[CottonBear]

9. I saw and heard Mojo Nixon sing that and many other great songs!

Back in the 90s at the Georgia Theater in Athens, GA. I even have a video of the event! I loved the inflatable sheep on the stage!

[tigereye]

25. saw him here in Pittsburgh

wearing a santa hat in August. Oddly enough, he wasn't nearly as good as I expected. He couldn't live up to his tapes! Maybe it was an off night.

[RetroLounge]

14. Hell yeah!

I saw the two of them once here in Milwaukee at the now-defunct-and-bulldozed-into-a-parking-lot Papagaio/Club New York (RIP) and then I saw him in '86 at Club Lingerie in LA. Great Stuff!

22. ha ha

that is just what I was thinking asthmatic. Hah! I love Mojo - I've been in the mood for him lately. (also good, Where the Hell's my Money, perfect for anyone who has ever been paid less than they deserved by a club owner!)

:hi:

[Jara sang]

11. I've met her! I've met her!

She is really nice.:loveya:

[RetroLounge]

15. *SWOON*

Apparently she's married to the guy from the FuzzTones...

Sigh, always my fave MTV VJ...

[Atlas Mugged]

17. Isn't he in Hanson?

[RetroLounge]

19. LOL

:rofl:

20. Yes - I do like Martha

And, I was "there". New Wave, Old Wave, Nuevo Romantico, ad infinitum. But it was a fun time for music, in spite of my far more serious tastes, even then. 'I Eat Cannibal' was the first thing that came to mind. Oh, and my all time favorite 'Beaver Cleaver Fever'. Oh, and 'Buffy Buffy come back to me-e, why'd you have to go and o'd-e'. And...drum roll...'Teenage Enema Nurses In Bondage'!!!

Oh, and the Vandals! And that wackjob woman with the weird name who always sounded like someone stomped on her spleen when she got emotional? Big gap in her teeth. Wore a mantilla in one of her videos?

[DS1]

16. it took me 4 or 5 times of seeing that name to remember who it was

She's a cutie

[Magrittes Pipe]

24. I still would.

Yes, I would.
