Sounds kind of like "the Euphio Question", by Kurt Vonnegut...If you haven't read
it, I solemnly command you to do so...and to read the rest of the Vonnegut collection
as well.  You will never regret it.

I have recently secured myself a first edition copy of "Fractal Paisleys," a
book of short stories by self-proclaimed "trailer-park science fiction" writer
Paul Di Filippo...heard of him, other books include "Ribofunk" and "The
Steampunk Trilogy"?

Anywho, although this has absolutly nothing to do with JDS, I have been
reading the first of the stories in the book: "Master Blaster and Whammer
Jammer Meet the Groove Thang".  This is a story, almost obviously, about
Master Blaster (Stevie Wonder) and Whammer Jammer (Peter Wolf) who come apon a
strange being emiting a sound that creates a false euphoria (The Groove
Thang).

The problem I am having is when a whole group of people come over to their
house...The names of the people obviously stand for names of famous people
(most likely musicians), but I can't figure any of them out except:

Dixie Chicken and Tennesse Lamb=Little Feat (these are lyrics from their song
"Dixie Chicken")

Can anyone else help me out on any of these?:

"Hakim Bey, the Goofy Sufi; Ramona from Pomona and Sexy Sadie; Doug the Slug,
Sol Solfeggio, and the Mojo Hobo; Sue St. Marie, Slick, and Nasty; Jeno and
Daddy G.; Cavedog and Surf Nazi; Dixie Chicken and Tennesse Lamb"
