Thee Bat Halves

Actually, dude at the bottom (below) with the bat-like emblem on his unworried brow reminds me of our old basement combo Thee Bat Halves - Morgan and me on guitar (and I think Cory a couple of times), Poolman on bass guitar, and Chooch on drums, which he played behind (!) a pink lacquered Japanese screen, which went strongly against the traditional quaint idea that a drummer and bass player should have eye contact. There were several Sunday afternoons ca. 1998 that I can recall where a (shall we call it primitive?) unlearned and unkempt form of shit instrumental blooz noize crept up the stairwell at 112 Jones St. Forties and tubes!

Here is the band logo, which is, indeed, half the Bat-Signal (tm):
