The Mad Piglet Orchestra
The Mad Piglet Orchestra (formerly The Mad Piglet Quartet) is Matt Wulff and Andy Logan, a.k.a. The Idiots, Plan B and Johny Beaver and The B-Rolls. They are an energetic and incredibly off-topic "band" that is known for its irrelevant humor (not irreverent). They enjoy mixing their songs, playing with the specially created "Furbinator" synth setting (a.k.a. big furby eating little furbies) and occasionally playing basketball...badly. (Matt's been on the Varsity team for two seasons I'll have you know, he's also an arrogant bastard.)
Your musical influences
Matt: Van Halen, Steve Vai, Metallica, Joe Satriani, Queensryche, Dream Theater.
Andy: Too many. For this band: Tenacious D and Stephen Lynch, and because we've become so jammy, Phish.
What equipment do you use?
Well, we're not techno or electronica, although we will be recording in Matt's studio when it's ready, right now we've been recording at Logan Studios (Powermac G5, Edirol FA-101, some M-Audio and Presonus stuff). Oh, and guitars...Jackson, Kramer, Hamer, Gibson, Gretsch, Godin, Fender, Ibanez, Takamine, and probably a few others.
Anything else?
When people call us crazy, we're not offended, we just nod our heads. Oh, and, at times, we have been compared to "Weird Al playing a digery-doo out of his ass"...just thought you should know that.
