The Othermothers - 88 Seconds (I Wanna Go To The Rodeo)from the ep "No Place Like Home"
A great band from Greensboro NC. This song is about the famous run-in between
right-wing extremists and left-wing extremists in a gun battle in Greensboro, North Carolina. Oddly enough the english synthpop band OMD wrote a song about the very same thing. I much prefer The Othermothers take.

Thanks Tommy,
You did exactly what I was hoping would happen. I just had a cassette that said Othermothers on it, I wasn't sure where or for what it was recorded so thank you for the information.
Cheers,
Michael
The UK Label "Making Waves" which put out The Othermothes EP "No Place
Like Home" is the same label that
released "Comboland".
The Othermothers Ep was released several months before Comboland.
The label Making Waves and Demon
Records became interested in NC
music as a result of Godfrey Cheshires trip to England with the "comboland tapes". The Othermothers scored an Ep with Making Waves and The Connells and Don Dixon with Demon. All 3 bands were on The Comboland compulation.
