Related to TP is Hamster Theatre. This is from the studio side of this 2 disc CD
The live side (Quasi Day Room) was a show here in Seattle, the first show HT ever played outside Colorado IIRC, was attended by about 30 people, many of whom were from the music press & blogs but one of the few attendees was yours truly. Their performance was the absolute best of the festival (
2002 The Progman Cometh) by all who saw them, and became a bit of a legend. I was incredibly lucky to have comped tickets
HT is more or less an instrumental version of TP
