Oh no!! I was a huge fan when I first heard them in college, at one point had almost everything they had released and even a bootleg live album. Watched a live show from 1989 or 1990 on YouTube recently which made me sad I never saw them!

Used to be able to get original drawings for $10-$20 from a comic book store in Austin. Daniel would come in and trade them for comics. Sometime around 2000 a collector heard about it and bought everything that they still had.
