I got to see them when they reunited briefly in the '90s at a show at Athens' Legion Field. Ricky was gone, of course, but they played flawlessly.
The video for "Deadbeat Club" was shot right next door to where I was living when I first moved to Athens in the attic of the Chickasaw Muddpuppies' house. They also had a cool treehouse and Michael Stipe would drop by every now and then.
I've seen the Muddpuppies more times than any other act. People often mistook me for Ben Reynolds because out hair was the same length. Their sometimes drummer, Jim McKay went on to form C-00 films with Stipe.
