Edie and the Eggs

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Edie and the Eggs were a punk/celebrity-exploitation band featuring Edith Massey, known for acting in several films by John Waters. The band's name referred to Massey's character in Pink Flamingos who had an obsession with eating eggs and romanced an egg delivery man. Massey sometimes wore her bizarre leather costume from Female Trouble during gigs.

Edie and the Eggs included future The Go-Gos drummer Gina Schock.

Edith recorded a single in 1982 "Big Girls Don't Cry" backed with "Punks, Get off the Grass".
