The Rugburns

After augmenting the lineup with bassist Gregory Page and drummer Jeff Aafedt, the group signed a contract with Bizarre/Planet Records in 1992. Poltz and Driscoll remained as the original core of the band. After working for two years, the group released their label debut with Morning Wood. With comical, sometimes bizarre lyrics, the band experienced their first taste of national exposure. The music and lyrics were compared to bands such as The Beat Farmers and Ween. The song “Me and Eddie Vedder” would go on to be perhaps the most recognizable track on the album. The song was a raucous meditation on the glorious possibilities of overdosing in a hotel room alongside Eddie Vedder. The experience concludes with 8-track players blaring the Houses of the Holy album as Vedder and Poltz are laid to rest.
The next album the group released was Mommy I’m Sorry. The album contains the track Dick’s Automotive.
