I thought the group's name was simply "STOMP". Or that might be the name of the
show. Anyway I saw them when they were in Pittsburgh a couple years ago. I
particularly liked the variety of sounds they produced. They did a number using
cigarette lighters, paper bags, brooms, sticks, garbage cans and more. Very
exciting. I recommend it if it comes to your town.
