i haven't seen the boyz since 1991 at the catalyst in santa cruz. i'm giving myself a little present by taking a trip to the bay area next weekend for the santa cruz, san francisco, and petaluma shows! i'm going to the shows with a couple of my deadhead friends that i turned on to the meat puppets back in 1990. anybody else here dig the "brothers" meat?

    I honestly think Meat Puppets II is one of the greatest albums ever recorded.

    Meat Puppets are awesome! Back water is still one of my favorite songs, there album they released in 2006 (?) was pretty good! the name of the cd escapes me but its worth checking out!

    Yeah, I saw them a few months back opening for Built To Spill and the show was awesome. It was the first time i had seen them since 1996!

    Good stuff, the band still rocks espcially live.

    I've only ever heard Backwater and Nirvana's covers at Unplugged. Backwater is one of the best songs of the 90s though.
