Legend

According to Moonalice legend, Arcata will be the home of the Moonalice tribal space program. That’s right. At some point in the future, the tribe is going into outer space. And we’re going to do it from Arcata. We’re going to some volunteers, so anyone who wants to go into space with us should speak to Big Steve Parish.

According to Moonalice legend, the tribal space program will introduce a new form of propulsion to space exploration. Our fuel will be Howling Monkey Energizing Elixer. The Monkey has been propelling Hardwood for years, and we think it can do the same thing for our rocket. Again, Big Steve will be looking for volunteers.

According to Moonalice legend, today is the 35th anniversary of the resignation of Tricky Dick Nixon. We’re going to celebrate by filling the next 18 minute gap with a song.

According to Moonalice legend, today is the International Day for Indigenous People. The Moonalice tribe loves Indigneous people! We love them so much, we want to be just like them! The Moonalice tribe has been applying for Indigenous status for years. Apparently the fact that the tribe has always been everywhere isn’t enough. Neither is skill in growing hemp or playing bass. We’re disappointed, but not surprised. This kind of thing happens all the time to us. The truth is that no one has ever replied to our application. They act as though we don’t exist. Imagine that.
