The Dead Milkmen Archives

Here’s one of the two rayguns I have from the “Secret Of Life” video shoot.

Smokin’ Banana Peels Rolling Papers Promotional Item. Very rare. Very funny.

Promotional “Moo Cans” used for both the Bucky Fellini and Beeelzebubba releases.

Yo-Yo used as a promo item for the Soul Rotation CD.

Here we are in front of the Atomium in Belgium on tour in 1992. We took a tour of this place. The Atomium was built for the 1958 Worlds Fair and was recently refurbished.

When we toured Europe we often played the local “Youth Center” in towns. The show was downstairs and then the bands would sometimes stay upstairs. Here’s a typical bunk. Plush eh?

Here’s me on tour in Europe in 1992. I think this is in the Netherlands? During my “only wear solid colored T-shirts and an old T-shirt sleeve on my wrist” period!

Here we are with my sister and some of her friends at the local historical museum near my parent’s house. We rehearsed in the basement and Nina and her friends sometimes watched. They called themselves “The Bison” and you can hear them on our recording of “Land of the Shakers”. Photo by Don Boorse.

Can anyone ID what the band or logo on Joe’s shirt is?

Here we are with my (Dean’s) father. Photo by Nina Sabatino. In the years 1983-1985 we often rehearsed in my parent’s basement.

Update: Nina says in the comments that it is her 21st birthday cake that I’m feeding my dad – dating this photo as taken in 1988.

Here’s the Milkmen with my (Dean’s) mom! Rodney and I stuff our faces while Joe looks happy and Dave seems to be contemplating a mustache. This was at my parents house where we rehearsed in the basement in the 1983-85 time period. Photo by Nina Sabatino.
