The fact that you guys were the first alternative band that Janeane Garofalo heard did not influence my decision to start listening to you at all. Nope, not one bit. Not at all... *shifty eyes* Seriously though, I really like your music. I was going to see if Everyday Music in Portland had any of your CDs, but I totally forgot. I'll look next time I go.

Just sold a copy of "Drums along the Hudson" to a customer in our record store. You have a new fan. Well, he had his daugther in her pram with him, so maybe two new fans!

Hi! MOOT once opened for you at Rutgers...

OP: INDEPENDENT MUSIC said of MOOT: "Minimal, real minimal. The rhythm of "Maryland" chugs along, reminds Steve of the BONGO's version of Mambo Sun minus the guitars. It's very matter of fact."

You guys bring back a lot of memories. Seems like back in the day you were playing everywhere every night. Saw you play the last night the old Peppermint Lounge was open and also at the Paramount Theatre on Staten Island. Pretty sure I saw you play a few other times as well. Always a great show with a lot of energy.
