I was fortunate to have John "Tater" Deaton draw the character for our band logo. I e-mailed John with my ideas and he ran with it and came up with more than my imagination could conger.
I came up with the name after hearing a James Taylor song called "Gaia". There is a line in the song about "fish on wheels". It turns out James Taylor got the idea from a Doctor Suess book.

I was going to say "Tater" but that one was already taken. It would be hard to have a fish as a Tater topper...
So, I am thinking "Spud".
