Battle of the Jug Bands

On Feb. 11, 2007, the Hump Night Thumpers celebrated our finest moment so far: victory in the 25th Annual Battle of the Jug Bands in Minneapolis. After a strong debut last year, we hit the top in our second try, and now we have the traveling trophy (a vintage 1938 waffle iron) to carry around with us all year. Scroll down for press coverage, photos, and a video of each of the songs we performed!

When I die don't bury this daddy at all
Just pickle daddy's bones, baby in alcohol
