Episode 1: In the Backyard with Mike, or, If You Could See These Bugs...
Welcome to the inaugural episode of Welcome to LSD, or, The History of a Band From Delaware Named Misfit Toys.
For anyone living locally, they'll know that LSD stands for Lower Slower Delaware - the region Misfit Toys has long called Home.
Misfit Toys (of Delaware) originated in 1992, starting with James Birch, Mike Mathis and Brian Scott Smith. We later brought in the late great Mark Sweetman (may he Rock In Peace).
We invite you to ride along with us as we discuss the history of the band, listen to some songs, tell some funny stories and maybe learn a little bit about the colorful Delmarva Peninsula we all live in.
If you're not local, stick around anyway!
