Bogus Slogan's preferred method of travel is the railroad. In the early days, the band would rent a whole sleeper car from Amtrak, and like the Duke Ellington Orchestra, used the railcar as a central base in touring America & Canada. When abundant record sales and tour revenues arrived, the band assembled their own 7 car private train. All the band members lobbied for a steam engine, but the FRA said no.
The Jumping Puppets were on a BS playbill this one time only. Their lead singer, "Fledgling," planted his feet on either side of the microphone stand, began a slow circular sway of his hips, and warbled unintelligible lyrics, nonstop, for the next 35 minutes. His bandmates started and stopped their songs as best they could.
From the print run of 250 posters, 53 are known and registered. 75 "Southern Winter" posters burned in a delivery truck fire. The last public sale was in November 2005. Probable value: $325.
