What's the best side project by any of the band? Sausage? Holy Mackerel? Flying frogs? Or my personal favorite, Oysterhead?

That's tuff....I like em' all. Frog Brigade is/was kick ass. I got to see them a bunch.
Here is a nice Oysterhead story for ya.
A few years back, we drove up to the University of Vermont to see Primus. Midway through the show...midway through the song even, Les stops playing and says "Ladies and gentlemen, I want to do things a little bit different tonight, a couple of my good friends are here tonight, and I'd like to have them play for you...(then he turns to the side of the stage and says....introducing my good friend, Mr. Edward Van Halen!." So half of the crowd was cheering and pretty into the prospect of Eddie coming out. The other half did't really seem to care. Then Trey (from Phish) comes out onto the stage. When he did, there was pretty much the same reaction. Then Les says... and finally, on drums, the ghost of John Bonham! Then of course Stewart Copeland comes out and gets on the drums. Trey and Les started playing Dueling Banjo's, which was awesome...then went into Communication Breakdown. People were into it at that point.
Anyway, this was the first live Oysterhead get together. Definently an unexpected treat!
