fuzzy logic

[back to band listing]

fuzzy logic was formed in 1997 by Tod McKenna, John Anglin, Dan Bizzle, and Earl David. There were a few different names in the beginning (The Scene, Syllius Gruv, Plaid Monkey), and a new lineup in the end, when the band broke up for good (Tod, Earl, John and Andy Unger).

Funny quote from the old fuzzy logic website:

“This Rhode Island-based band has been attracting a devoted following with its free-form, psychedelic rock that effortlessly swings from bluegrass to funk to rock. They use a simple formula to create music that is easy to listen to and relates to a variety of people on an intelligent level.”

fuzzy logic had recorded a single demo album, but decided not to venture into the studio again due to the absence of energy only a live show can provide. The band had accumulated more than two dozen live shows, available for B&P.

Why so fuzzy, fuzzy?

One could look at the etymology of our name and wonder, what the heck? The word fuzzy is believed to come from the German word fussig, meaning loose or spongy. The word logic comes from the Latin word logica, and means reason. So, some may call us spongy reason or even fussig logica? To take this pointless gabble a step further, the phrase ‘fuzzy logic’ means something somewhat different. Fuzzy logic is an edgy science dating back to ancient Greek times. Fuzzy logic and similar beliefs have led us to, and given us our first tastes of Artificial Intelligence. Now you know.

i looked over your recent e-mail and have decided to take the advice presented. indeed mr. spanky does need and deserve the credit that you (mr. happy) pointed out. how it was originally overlooked is beyond the scope of my profession. i will assure you (mr. happy) and yours (mr. spanky) that the person(s) responsible for the miss assignment of credit will be sacked. furthermore, to prevent this from happening in the future, i (toad) will put together a team of my top people to perform a thorough investigation into future credit assignments.
