Not too proud to nostalgia trip, I meant. Not ashamed of the music or (puerile politics aside) the band.
They’re a Missouri band that’s mostly world famous in Norway, but Stephen King was a fan. I think he quoted the entire lyrics of ‘Drinking on the job’ in The Tommyknockers.
The ‘higher than the moon’ reference was to the song ‘Information’. Both are from the fun eponymous debut album.
