Camper Van Beethoven - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (456 words) |
 | Founded in 1983 in Santa Cruz, California, Camper Van Beethoven mixed elements of pop, ska, punk rock, folk, country, and acid rock into an eclectic, catchy formula years before the alternative rock movement took shape. |
| The group's trademark violin-coated melodies and ironic, Frank Zappa-influenced lyrics put them one step away from being a novelty act in the eyes of many critics, but the band had gone from silly to experimental with the intricate, psychedelic pop meanderings of their self-titled third album. |
| Members of Camper Van Beethoven collaborated with Eugene Chadbourne on a number of records under the name Camper Van Chadbourne. |
| Camper Tie Downs (510 words) |
| To keep the front of the camper from moving around in the truck bed, a 2X4 standing on edge with a cleat on each end was set at the front of the bed. |
| Cleats were attached to the rear of the camper to prevent sideways movement at the back of the camper. |
| With the camper installed, it was easy to reach the rear anchors, but the front anchors were covered by the camper. |
