I've heard 2 songs by a group called Camper van Beethoven, "Where the Hell is Bill" and "Take the Skinheads Bowling", and I like them both. The songs are short, pleasant sounding, and simple but catchy. In "Where the Hell is Bill" the course repeats the song title while the lead singer runs through 3 different scenes Bill could be into: new wave, mod, or hardcore. The lyrics go something like this for the mod scene: Maybe he went to buy an airforce parka Maybe he went to buy a vespa scooter Maybe he went to go mod-ska dancing Anybody else know any more about this group?
