Ever wondered how a band formed in the late '80s at the University of Buffalo could evolve into a powerhouse of the improvisational rock scene? We promise you'll gain a deeper understanding of moe.'s unique journey, from their humble beginnings to their album "No Doy." You'll hear about their ability to switch musical roles with ease during performances, akin to the likes of the Allman Brothers and Phish. With tracks like "Rebubula" leading the way, we explore how moe. captivated audiences with their intricate compositions and synchronized performances.
As we switch gears, the episode peels back the layers of the band's dynamics and sound evolution. We explore their successful business model, which allowed them to run their own music festival and foster a dedicated community of fans and musicians. Our conversation touches on their approach and commitment to crafting polished music that resonates both live and on record. We also reflect on musicians' contributions beyond the stage, spotlighting their good character and community service.
For a whimsical twist, we embark on playful tangents, from philosophical musings to clever quips about life and pop culture. We chat about the unexpected nostalgia tied to tracks like "Buster" and "Moth," and share how repeated listening uncovers new layers and emotions in the music. Whether it's the frogs croaking in the background of "four" or the complex structure of "Rebubula," our love for these tracks shines through. Concluding with fond mentions of "Spine of the Dog," we celebrate the cohesive ending of the album and the joy of discovering more with each listen.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Well, what the hell is supposed to do, you moron?
Speaker 4 (00:07):
All right.
Thank you for listening to theGreatest Nine Hits.
I'm Chris, and playing the songRebubbula is my co-host, tim.
This is from the song Rebubulaon the no Doy album from Mo.
That's right, mo, with a period.
(00:29):
They're like an.
American jam band formed atUniversity of Buffalo 89-90.
And three classmates gettogether Rob Der, derek, al
Schneier and Chuck Garvey.
They get together, they'rejamming in Buffalo.
(00:51):
They just keep doing it anddoing it for decades.
This is their first commercialalbum release.
They had a first record calledFat Boy.
I guess it was released as a uhlike on the improvisational
rock scene.
Uh, in the area they're,they're kind of a band somewhere
(01:14):
in the fish and widespreadspread panic area.
But uh, they've uh been ahard-working touring band that
have been together for years.
They've made made a career, agood living out of it.
They all raised families,mortgages.
They talk about how they had noidea that they would be able to
(01:35):
do this for a living and enjoyit so much, things like that.
They seem like reallydown-to-earth musicians who are
just really incredible at whatthey do.
They're in sync, they've beendoing it for years and um you
weren't going to listen to theirvery first uh release.
Um, so you know, in the pastthey've toured, they've put down
(01:57):
a bunch of festivals, uh,woodstock 99.
Uh, you know they go back.
This is from 1996, this albumThey've been around for some
time.
We're going to listen to thewhole album, rank the non-hits.
I think we're just going tomake all of them up for voting
today.
We're not going to.
(02:17):
They feel like a regional bandbut they've got a national,
international, wide followingfor sure.
What strikes me is just the waythey're so in sync with one
another.
(02:37):
They can play anything, theycan change speeds and they do
all those things.
They can change speeds and theydo all those things.
And it's just sort of grown outof their beginning days.
I think I read somewhere whenthey didn't have much of a, they
didn't have a lot of songswritten In the beginning, so
they would just go into jams andso that's how they sort of
(02:59):
became a jam band.
So, Really really good album.
I really enjoyed it a lot.
On this album, let's seethere's a.
It was four guys, so it was aderrick, garvey schneier and
then on drums, chris mazer.
So he's no longer with the bandbut he recorded on this one, so
(03:26):
shout out to him.
And the rest of the guys.
They have this whole productionteam.
I don't know if there's like aproducer, John Porter, producer
mixing Shout out to him.
You know different engineers.
The album cover is so weird.
It's like this husky kind ofguy that's got this weird clown
(03:52):
makeup with almost like an evilgrin.
Kind of looks like the guy fromFull Metal Jacket, like right,
you know the guy who goes nuts.
But to make it even creepier,he's got like this nail coming
out of the right side of hisskull right up above his eyebrow
(04:13):
.
It's crazy, I gotta stoplooking at it.
So it's really kind of startingto freak me out the more I look
at it.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Jeez Anyway.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
And you can tell Tim's playing.
He's just got.
Look at you.
We did our first Steely Danpodcast.
You weren't anywhere near asgood as you are now.
So we're going to want to gethis two-centing, because he's
(05:02):
seen these guys probably a dozentimes, I think even more, and
he can tell you how they playand how they play together.
And I think, like the twoguitar players saying something
about, one can play rhythm whilethe other one does a solo and
then you know they interchangeroles.
You know throughout their showsand they play a lot of notes.
(05:24):
There's always tons ofindividual notes strung together
.
They all have them and theyplay in sync with one another.
With all those notes, it's outof control.
A couple of songs I like StAugustine If you look at the
track list, she Sends Me 32Things.
(05:46):
St Augustine If you look at thetrack list like, she Sends Me
32 Things.
St Augustine Bring you Down.
Rebobula that's the fifth song.
Spine of a Dog, moth BusterFour.
Some of these songs are reallylong too.
It's like Rebobula and.
Four are the longest.
So it's going to be a greatgreat show like Rebobula, and
(06:06):
Four are the longest.
It's going to be a great, greatshow.
I am excited.
We're going to yuck it up.
We've got tons of sound clips.
We're going to have some laughs, listen to some good music,
play some John Travolta clips, alittle Vin Travolta clips, a
little Vinnie Bonarino.
(06:27):
We're going to hear from him.
He's going to give us someopinions and suggestions.
Oh, he's got that 7 fret orfret 5.
Whatever I don't know Is fret5,.
Whatever I don't know, is it 7?
(06:47):
All right, a little something.
Yeah, exactly Beautiful,beautiful.
God bless you.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
More, more, more money.
Yeah, yeah, that's what theysaid on the album.
That's right, a little sticker.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
Yeah, you've seen them everywhere.
Tell us how's it going.
Said on the album.
That's right, a little sticker.
Yeah, you've seen themeverywhere.
Like tell us, uh, how's itgoing, by the way, yeah going
well, going well.
Yeah, oh my gosh yeah, wait,give us your thoughts, man oh
well what didn't I say?
That needs to be said well,let's see.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
Does john travolta have any thoughts?
Speaker 6 (07:20):
you know that if is the middle word in life no, he
doesn't.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
Um, no, no, no, yeah, it's one way or another, one
way or another about it.
This album should be known andshould be out there.
This is a solid display ofmusic ship, and I think it might
have been Chuck or Al.
When asked about their role insociety, they kind of deem
(07:49):
themselves the modern daymusicians or magicians I should
say.
Oh yeah, like writing thesesongs, the jams are speculative
and I think the jams come in thebeginning or end, but they're
very composed.
This is a lot of composed notes.
I would say that they play thesongs similar to how they sound
(08:13):
on the album.
Pretty much they're alreadylong.
That's why the jam comes in andthey more so make the songs
while jamming, as opposed to jamon stage and play a different
every time like fish or like.
You know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
Yeah.
So but I it's all kind ofpositive too, it's kind of
upbeat.
Speaker 5 (08:36):
It's not even thing.
It is very positive music.
Even their downer songs arejust a sort of like a happy
melancholy.
Speaker 7 (08:45):
Okay, okay, yeah, in Buffalo it's you know, in the
sleepy town of snowy Buffalo.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
Yeah, shout out to Buffalo.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
But yeah, I've seen these guys in in the club scene
and in you know nine 30 club.
I've seen them in you know atall good in West Virginia.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (09:02):
Uh where they played.
Uh the the Mo all-star jam withspecial guests Grace Potter
playing Cortez the killer whichis a.
Neil Young song.
And they've played shine on you,crazy diamond.
I've seen in another year atall good Uh, and I'm just every
time I see them I'm it's justbringing such a smile to my face
(09:24):
because they're such amazingmusicians and they really do
have such a good time on stageand they don't mess up.
They don't mess up.
It's the craziest part.

(09:49):
yeah and vinny later.
So this is the laterpercussionist, yeah, as well as
jim uh laughlin on uh, notablyon uh.

The xylophone?
Oh, so that's what he.
So they link up with the key ofthe xylophone sometimes I was
wondering yeah, because I knewthat.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
yeah, vinny was the, the guy who replaced the drummer
.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
Yeah, vinny, and Jim, they'll do little.
Vinny and Jim jams later, andthen the band comes back in and
I think that's where the jammingcomes in, sort of like the
grateful dead drums aspect to it.
Right, oh, how cool is that?
Speaker 4 (10:20):
Yeah, well the drums and, like the xylophone, they
the drums and the xylophone.
They're all sort of in the samefamily and they all play on one
another.
So there's that interplay withthe two rhythm guitar doing the
interplay and then the bass isjust the vocalist.
It's kind of like athree-tiered system.
Speaker 5 (10:36):
In a way, it is yeah, dueling guitars.

Speaker 4 (27:23):
The 90s was a solid decade.
Is there anything yeah?
Speaker 5 (27:29):
For bands like these that were grinding it out on
smaller records, just torn theirass off really.
Yeah, some went for hits, somewent for concert more concerts,
concert, more concerts.
You know, yeah, it's a strategy.
I don't think a lot of peoplebought their albums, but they
(27:53):
made their money touring, right,yeah well, it probably sounds
pretty good yeah, it's prettypolished on the album.
Obviously no, the album'spolished.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
I'm sure they're polished on stage as well.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Yeah, just kind of something about having the
energy of a crowd.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Oh wow, it's being played in your presence, yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Like a bonding kind of feeling.
Speaker 5 (28:22):
So I put the bow down a bond inside of the Mo-Downs.
Well, they also had the Mo-Down, which was a festival that they
put on and had guest acts aswell.
So it would be like 35 bandsand Mo was the premier band that
would have sets every night,and then there'd be all these
daytime and they ran it all.
There'd be all these daytimeand they, they ran it all like
(28:43):
the mo people.
So they did, they followed thefish like playbook for running
their own festival.
Okay, and it was in new york,somewhere in upstate new york
yeah, you sort of create what isa lot of people, yeah, yeah you
have your own syndicate ofbands production company, an
in-house production company, orhelp with other production
(29:06):
companies, and just go for it?
Speaker 4 (29:09):
Sure, but they're sort of like incorporated
amongst the whole team.
Yeah, and all the other bandsare sort of in a hierarchy.
Speaker 5 (29:23):
To a certain extent.
Yes, yeah, they support.
Yeah, that's really again, it'stheir production.
Oh, look up there, mind-bendingmusicality, yeah, yeah, go to

the guitar part, it's this.
It's from like late 70s Rush,but I mean they're borrowing it
like that style play where youjust interject it here and there
.
Yeah, and it works.
(58:30):
Man, it's really good.
Speaker 1 (58:36):
That's cool.

That was kind of like a if Ihad four, it it'd be Buster, or
maybe a tie between Moth andBuster is number one.
Speaker 7 (01:10:30):
I like them.
Speaker 5 (01:10:31):
You know, let's go with that for me.
Speaker 4 (01:10:36):
A tie for Moth and Buster.
I'm glad we're not kind of,because we did copy 32 thing.
I copied it, you know.
But yeah, that was going to bemy number one.
Mine's a top four this week.
All right, you know I'm going'mgonna take spine of the dog out
, because I do.
I love that hook.
Yes, in the in the middle of it.
But that I mean, that's, that'smy honorable mention.
Uh, rebubula is gonna be mynumber what yeah, you love that.
(01:10:58):
I loved it, man.
It was just, there was just somuch music, so many, no, so many
just things going on like therewere yeah, tempo changes.
Speaker 5 (01:11:06):
I'm glad somebody had to choose that one yeah it, it
had to be mentioned.
Speaker 4 (01:11:11):
I can see how you've probably heard it a bunch of
times.
Anyway, what was playing therethe whole time was the end of
that song.
Speaker 5 (01:11:19):
There it is, with the frogs and all that.
That's the whole album.
Speaker 4 (01:11:22):
Yeah, and we wrapped it up nice and neat at the end
of that song and I think that'sa way to go out right.
No-transcript.
Well, what the hell is supposed to do, you moron?
Speaker 4 (00:07):
All right.
Thank you for listening to theGreatest Nine Hits.
I'm Chris, and playing the songRebubbula is my co-host, tim.
This is from the song Rebubulaon the no Doy album from Mo.
That's right, mo, with a period.
(00:29):
They're like an.
American jam band formed atUniversity of Buffalo 89-90.
And three classmates gettogether Rob Der, derek, al
Schneier and Chuck Garvey.
They get together, they'rejamming in Buffalo.
(00:51):
They just keep doing it anddoing it for decades.
This is their first commercialalbum release.
They had a first record calledFat Boy.
I guess it was released as a uhlike on the improvisational
rock scene.
Uh, in the area they're,they're kind of a band somewhere
(01:14):
in the fish and widespreadspread panic area.
But uh, they've uh been ahard-working touring band that
have been together for years.
They've made made a career, agood living out of it.
They all raised families,mortgages.
They talk about how they had noidea that they would be able to
(01:35):
do this for a living and enjoyit so much, things like that.
They seem like reallydown-to-earth musicians who are
just really incredible at whatthey do.
They're in sync, they've beendoing it for years and um you
weren't going to listen to theirvery first uh release.
Um, so you know, in the pastthey've toured, they've put down
(01:57):
a bunch of festivals, uh,woodstock 99.
Uh, you know they go back.
This is from 1996, this albumThey've been around for some
time.
We're going to listen to thewhole album, rank the non-hits.
I think we're just going tomake all of them up for voting
today.
We're not going to.
(02:17):
They feel like a regional bandbut they've got a national,
international, wide followingfor sure.
What strikes me is just the waythey're so in sync with one
another.
(02:37):
They can play anything, theycan change speeds and they do
all those things.
They can change speeds and theydo all those things.
And it's just sort of grown outof their beginning days.
I think I read somewhere whenthey didn't have much of a, they
didn't have a lot of songswritten In the beginning, so
they would just go into jams andso that's how they sort of
(02:59):
became a jam band.
So, Really really good album.
I really enjoyed it a lot.
On this album, let's seethere's a.
It was four guys, so it was aderrick, garvey schneier and
then on drums, chris mazer.
So he's no longer with the bandbut he recorded on this one, so
(03:26):
shout out to him.
And the rest of the guys.
They have this whole productionteam.
I don't know if there's like aproducer, John Porter, producer
mixing Shout out to him.
You know different engineers.
The album cover is so weird.
It's like this husky kind ofguy that's got this weird clown
(03:52):
makeup with almost like an evilgrin.
Kind of looks like the guy fromFull Metal Jacket, like right,
you know the guy who goes nuts.
But to make it even creepier,he's got like this nail coming
out of the right side of hisskull right up above his eyebrow
(04:13):
.
It's crazy, I gotta stoplooking at it.
So it's really kind of startingto freak me out the more I look
at it.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Jeez Anyway.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
And you can tell Tim's playing.
He's just got.
Look at you.
We did our first Steely Danpodcast.
You weren't anywhere near asgood as you are now.
So we're going to want to gethis two-centing, because he's
(05:02):
seen these guys probably a dozentimes, I think even more, and
he can tell you how they playand how they play together.
And I think, like the twoguitar players saying something
about, one can play rhythm whilethe other one does a solo and
then you know they interchangeroles.
You know throughout their showsand they play a lot of notes.
(05:24):
There's always tons ofindividual notes strung together
.
They all have them and theyplay in sync with one another.
With all those notes, it's outof control.
A couple of songs I like StAugustine If you look at the
track list, she Sends Me 32Things.
(05:46):
St Augustine If you look at thetrack list like, she Sends Me
32 Things.
St Augustine Bring you Down.
Rebobula that's the fifth song.
Spine of a Dog, moth BusterFour.
Some of these songs are reallylong too.
It's like Rebobula and.
Four are the longest.
So it's going to be a greatgreat show like Rebobula, and
(06:06):
Four are the longest.
It's going to be a great, greatshow.
I am excited.
We're going to yuck it up.
We've got tons of sound clips.
We're going to have some laughs, listen to some good music,
play some John Travolta clips, alittle Vin Travolta clips, a
little Vinnie Bonarino.
(06:27):
We're going to hear from him.
He's going to give us someopinions and suggestions.
Oh, he's got that 7 fret orfret 5.
Whatever I don't know Is fret5,.
Whatever I don't know, is it 7?
(06:47):
All right, a little something.
Yeah, exactly Beautiful,beautiful.
God bless you.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
More, more, more money.
Yeah, yeah, that's what theysaid on the album.
That's right, a little sticker.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
Yeah, you've seen them everywhere.
Tell us how's it going.
Said on the album.
That's right, a little sticker.
Yeah, you've seen themeverywhere.
Like tell us, uh, how's itgoing, by the way, yeah going
well, going well.
Yeah, oh my gosh yeah, wait,give us your thoughts, man oh
well what didn't I say?
That needs to be said well,let's see.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
Does john travolta have any thoughts?
Speaker 6 (07:20):
you know that if is the middle word in life no, he
doesn't.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
Um, no, no, no, yeah, it's one way or another, one
way or another about it.
This album should be known andshould be out there.
This is a solid display ofmusic ship, and I think it might
have been Chuck or Al.
When asked about their role insociety, they kind of deem
(07:49):
themselves the modern daymusicians or magicians I should
say.
Oh yeah, like writing thesesongs, the jams are speculative
and I think the jams come in thebeginning or end, but they're
very composed.
This is a lot of composed notes.
I would say that they play thesongs similar to how they sound
(08:13):
on the album.
Pretty much they're alreadylong.
That's why the jam comes in andthey more so make the songs
while jamming, as opposed to jamon stage and play a different
every time like fish or like.
You know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
Yeah.
So but I it's all kind ofpositive too, it's kind of
upbeat.
Speaker 5 (08:36):
It's not even thing.
It is very positive music.
Even their downer songs arejust a sort of like a happy
melancholy.
Speaker 7 (08:45):
Okay, okay, yeah, in Buffalo it's you know, in the
sleepy town of snowy Buffalo.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
Yeah, shout out to Buffalo.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
But yeah, I've seen these guys in in the club scene
and in you know nine 30 club.
I've seen them in you know atall good in West Virginia.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (09:02):
Uh where they played.
Uh the the Mo all-star jam withspecial guests Grace Potter
playing Cortez the killer whichis a.
Neil Young song.
And they've played shine on you,crazy diamond.
I've seen in another year atall good Uh, and I'm just every
time I see them I'm it's justbringing such a smile to my face
(09:24):
because they're such amazingmusicians and they really do
have such a good time on stageand they don't mess up.
They don't mess up.
It's the craziest part.
And Rob on bass, I mean they'rejust bass, I mean there's just
(09:49):
yeah and vinny later.
So this is the laterpercussionist, yeah, as well as
jim uh laughlin on uh, notablyon uh.
What is it?
The xylophone?
Oh, so that's what he.
So they link up with the key ofthe xylophone sometimes I was
wondering yeah, because I knewthat.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
yeah, vinny was the, the guy who replaced the drummer
.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
Yeah, vinny, and Jim, they'll do little.
Vinny and Jim jams later, andthen the band comes back in and
I think that's where the jammingcomes in, sort of like the
grateful dead drums aspect to it.
Right, oh, how cool is that?
Speaker 4 (10:20):
Yeah, well the drums and, like the xylophone, they
the drums and the xylophone.
They're all sort of in the samefamily and they all play on one
another.
So there's that interplay withthe two rhythm guitar doing the
interplay and then the bass isjust the vocalist.
It's kind of like athree-tiered system.
Speaker 5 (10:36):
In a way, it is yeah, dueling guitars.
Yeah, dueling percussionists,singular and dueling.
Yeah, dueling percussionistsand dueling percussionists
singular and dueling.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
Yeah, dueling percussionists and dueling
guitarists.

Yeah, Blue.
Speaker 4 (22:19):
Ice or Cold.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
Maybe, yeah, I don't know.

Ice or Cult.
Maybe, yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (22:23):

I think no.
Godzilla is a song that BlueIce or Cult sings.
I think Maybe.
Yeah, but no, I mean theiroriginal formative years.
Speaker 5 (22:32):
Yes, a lot of these songs on this album.
This one is a good one, man.
I don't think they play it thatmuch, but yeah, it'd be
challenging.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
I would think, yes, well, we'll move on, but thank
you for that.
That was good.
Yeah, this is St.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Augustine.
Speaker 5 (22:48):
All right, I got some it's a lot of religion.
Speaker 7 (23:04):
Get the door.
I'm praying, goddammit Whoastop.
Speaker 5 (23:10):
NASCAR fans love this song.
Maybe there's a reason not to.
Speaker 4 (23:22):
I just it's not a slam on Tebow or anything.
I just think of Tebow when Ihear this song, because it's St
Augustine.
He's related to God.
Speaker 5 (23:30):
Shout out to Tebow does he reference God a lot in
his interviews?
Speaker 4 (23:36):
he's like he's good stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (23:45):

Speaker 5 (25:16):
Slide.
I think Chuck plays more slidethan Al, but I might be wrong.
Speaker 4 (25:31):
Oh, I'm sure they could probably do these songs
equally proficient.
Speaker 5 (25:38):
Yeah, I bet they know them back and forth.
It's their first album too.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
Where would you put this album first?
Speaker 5 (26:02):
I think I like it the most, you like it the most.

Speaker 5 (27:19):
Amen Amen.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
The 90s was a solid decade.
Is there anything yeah?
Speaker 5 (27:29):
For bands like these that were grinding it out on
smaller records, just torn theirass off really.
Yeah, some went for hits, somewent for concert more concerts,
concert, more concerts.
You know, yeah, it's a strategy.
I don't think a lot of peoplebought their albums, but they
(27:53):
made their money touring, right,yeah well, it probably sounds
pretty good yeah, it's prettypolished on the album.
Obviously no, the album'spolished.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
I'm sure they're polished on stage as well.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Yeah, just kind of something about having the
energy of a crowd.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Oh wow, it's being played in your presence, yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Like a bonding kind of feeling.
Speaker 5 (28:22):
So I put the bow down a bond inside of the Mo-Downs.
Well, they also had the Mo-Down, which was a festival that they
put on and had guest acts aswell.
So it would be like 35 bandsand Mo was the premier band that
would have sets every night,and then there'd be all these
daytime and they ran it all.
There'd be all these daytimeand they, they ran it all like
(28:43):
the mo people.
So they did, they followed thefish like playbook for running
their own festival.
Okay, and it was in new york,somewhere in upstate new york
yeah, you sort of create what isa lot of people, yeah, yeah you
have your own syndicate ofbands production company, an
in-house production company, orhelp with other production
(29:06):
companies, and just go for it?
Speaker 4 (29:09):
Sure, but they're sort of like incorporated
amongst the whole team.
Yeah, and all the other bandsare sort of in a hierarchy.
Speaker 5 (29:23):
To a certain extent.
Yes, yeah, they support.
Yeah, that's really again, it'stheir production.
Oh, look up there, mind-bendingmusicality, yeah, yeah, go to

How cool.
Yeah, I can see how it'd be funplaying in this band and doing
it for a living.
Yeah, good for them, these guysare winners.
Speaker 5 (30:28):
They're just low profile, so chill yeah, yeah,
that's a plus yeah it is.
Speaker 4 (30:35):
They're like humble got like families and stuff.
Speaker 5 (30:40):

the guitar part, it's this.
It's from like late 70s Rush,but I mean they're borrowing it
like that style play where youjust interject it here and there
.
Yeah, and it works.
(58:30):
Man, it's really good.
Speaker 1 (58:36):
That's cool.
