== History == Rust Epique, former guitarist for Crazy Town, left the group in 2001. After cutting some demos Rust signed with V2 Records in 2002. He then reassembled and re-formed an ensemble called Rustandthesuperheroes. Soon after, they began playing clubs in the Los Angeles area. Due to a trademark conflict with Hanna-Barbera, the band couldn't use a moniker with the phrase "Superheroes" in it, so they used a name that Rust had created years earlier in Modesto. "pre)Thing". At the Dragonfly in January 2003, they were billed under the name of "Daisy Town". An obvious wink and nudge to the LA hipster scene that followed his prior band, Crazy Town. This was the first performance with new bass player Jon Troy Winquist and drummer/producer Adam Hamilton.
