A puppet dinosaur band that made at least two appearances on the prehistoric 1991-1994 series Dinosaurs.
The band's name is a parody of real band Lynyrd Skynryd, but the lead singer is more of an Axl Rose of Guns 'n' Roses type.
At the beginning of the "Switched At Birth" episode (27 November 1991), their music video for "I'm Better Than You" is played as part of DTV's "Macho Idiot Rock" weekend. It won the DTV Music Award for fastest editing. The song is off their You're Worse Than Me album on Ego Records and Tapes, and also on the soundtrack of the film I Never Thought You Were That Great To Start With.
In the later "Slave to Fashion" episode (30 March 1992), another DTV segment gets us up to date with the band. Guitarist Nigel Ouch is interviewed about their new album Tape This Off The Radio for Free. Also mentioned is their first album, Borrow This Record From a Friend and Tape It, and their upcoming "Don't Bother To Come, We'll Be On Cable Next Month" tour. Ticket sales are sluggish.
The band was unfortunately nowhere to be found on the show's actual soundtrack album.
