And the same over-production is what made “My Way or the Highway” somewhat of a stinker. TIckled Pink and Dr. Doom were live staples for months before their release on the album…and they sounded great live. Even the indie-released single of Tickled Pink sounded better than the album version (for which they inexplicably added the fiddle in the background!).

It's too bad because I loved Tuscadero – and like Leather Lite, was at virtually every show they played (at least from 95-98).

Margaret is living in Brooklyn too. She formed the band Hot Pursuit (http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=1...) with Evelyn from Teenbeat label-maters “Blast Off Country Style” and she also spent some time with Absolutely Kosher's “+/-” contributing some bass and vox as well as various other music projects. Her guitar is not getting too dusty.

Questionable info she emailed me via Melissa is that “melissa and i met in the coast guard, originally. Jack and Phil were the MPs that got us kicked out when we went AWOL.” and she's currently into “Bob the Builder”. I choose to believe both implicitly.

Phil is hitched and doing really well working in the DC area for a company that will ensure he never gets lost on his way to a gig with his current band, the Spoils of NW (http://www.myspace.com/spoilsofnw). He also played with a band called the Peter Hayes Experience. You put on your Sherlock Holmes hat and see what you can dig up on them!

Drummer Jack has put down the drum sticks in order to better hold graphite, pastels and probably more often, the mouse and Photoshop pen tool as a DC based editorial and advertising illustrator. IIRC, the rereleased Pink Album cover was Jack's handywork. I would try to find a link to that cover but I'm at work and it's shocking what google images comes up with when you search ANYthing with the word “pink” in it. See some of his current work at http://jackhornadyillustration.com/ . His stuff is THE cute. He's married to his longtime sweetheart and has a gorgeous little girl who will be sure to get the cautionary lowdown on AWFUL boys from her well-schooled Poppa.

In some fact checking from Miss Melissa, I should correct that Hollywood Handsome was the only official video ever made – I don't know why I remember them for those two songs off My Way or the Highway, but i do remember seeing posters and press materials at the time of the release. I've been trying to locate my copy since I forgot how good Mutiny is as well as some of the other tunes. XOXOXO Matty
