Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Jug Band Music

 Kweskin has exactly the right voice, assuming that's Kweskin.  But where's the jug?

When I was in college, our team played the Australian national team. We greeted them when they came into the gym with a 200 kazoo band rendition of "Waltzing Matilda."

Don't miss The Cleanliness and Godliness Skiffle Band and, or course, The Holy Modal Rounders

Whadaya mean, where's the jugs? Have you SEEN Maria Muldar?

(she sang with Kweskin's jug band in the 60s, for tips...and back then you certainly wouldn't have wondered where the jugs are.)

Harp player (and mouthy guy up front) is Mel Lyman, a seriously deranged cult leader in Boston in the early '70's. Died at 40 (not a minute too soon, IMO) after infiltrating the Jug Band and subsequently communing dozens of unsuspecting youngsters to a life of penury, obeisance, and Mel-worship.
