XML FeedsPunk rock on kids' show

I had posted before about seeing They Might Be Giants performing on Blues Clues. Well, now I was just watching "Yo Gabba Gabba" with my son, and I saw a live performance from Supernova. I saw Supernova some 8-10 years ago at Fireside Bowl. If I remember right, they were on Amphetamine Reptile Records, who also were home to Helmet, Boss Hog and the Melvins among others.
A lot of you might know Supernova from their song "Chewbacca" on the "Clerks" soundtrack. I remember hearing that song live. I also remember that their schtick was similar to Man Or Astro-man? in that the band members were aliens. Supernova's schtick included a love of tin foil, and they asked that people bring tin foil to shows.
Weird.

i stumbled on your blog through google. its adorable. hug your chothers is probably my favorite that ive read so far, heh. anywhoo..
oh man, that show is brilliant. the co creator is one of the dudes from aquabats, being why the soundtrack is so rad. yo gabba gabba. they have had some great bands. aquabats respectively, biz markie is on every day i think, the aggrolites (one of my favorites), the shins, devo i think, ting tings... that show is just awesome. the music sequences anyway. the rest drives me absoloutely bonkers. but to see my five year old dance to skinhead reggae bands is amazing. oh, kids<3. good luck, if you have myspace, add me for sure. good luck in daddy land.
