  1. I always assumed bass player Floyd was based on Jeff “Skunk” Baxter, but who knows. According to Jerry Nelson, the guy who played Floyd from 1975 to 2003 …

    I always thought of Floyd as a character who had probably been a beatnik first, and then — just like real life — probably been a beatnik, and then he was into jazz and poetry, and then he probably went along with the chase into rock and roll, because he needed a job. He drew the line at punk, as I probably did myself, I think. That’s why I can relate to Floyd, I guess because he’s all those things.

    Lots more back story here. Yes it is a slow work day, why do you ask?
