Besides enjoying whacky, Abbot & Costello-ish names, the dudes of Whoz Playing? really like Willard, Wis. And, apparently, the planet Saturn.
 



Here's Magic Mama posing as the Cat in the Hat's spunky kid sister. She's about to run off, leaving a cartoon puff of smoke behind her.

Hello, D Boys. Thank you so much for this promo shot. If your live show contains even one tenth of the intensity this poster promises, we're going to bottle that energy and use it to fuel a rocket ship straight to rock heaven. Congrats on the Bud Light sponsorship.
 



The men of hip-hop collective Frozen Tundra probably had a hard time finding a suitable Chippewa Valley location for their smoke-laden promo shot. Thank god they came across a spot overlooking a parking lot.
