I think I still have that, somewhere.

The bass player of my old punk band (Benedict Arnold & The Traitors) was Boingo's original roadie (when they were still known as the "Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo"), and later became their live tour merchandise guy.

Thanks to that connection, Boingo's Sam "Sluggo" Phipps played a sax solo on a Traitors' song called "I Hate Sports" from our 1982 release "No More Heroes or Gods." Don Preston, one of the founding members of Zappa's Mothers, also played grand piano on this tune.
