Dead Man's Party was one of my favorite albums as a kid. I liked the movie Weird Science and bought the soundtrack then the actual album by Boingo. Any other fans?

Yea dude, Oingo Bingo where great band, "Nothing Bad Ever Happens to Me' and other classics, loved their use of horns, and Danny Elfman wrote great hooks and funny lyrics. Like you TZ discovered them thru the movie 'Weird Science' when I was a mere lad. Back than I was more interested in looking at Kelly Lebrock than listening to Oingo Bingo.

I love Oingo Boingo. Danny Elfman is one of my all-time hero's and influences on a lot of writing I do for composition classes. I myself only have Dead Man's Party and Only A Lad by them, but I would definitely love to fill in my collection.

Back in my college days one of my pals was WAY into Oingo Boingo... we used to rock that "Dead Man's Party" album all the time whilst drinking and ingesting other intoxicants. Great album, haven't heard it in years.

Great band! Great musicians! Great songs. The first time I heard them was on the Dr. Demento Halloween episode. He played Dead Man's Party and I was hooked. I also love their appearance in one of my favorite comedies of all time, Back to School. I wish that they were still together. Here is a live rendition of one of my favorite songs of theirs, No One Lives Forever.
