Junk Men Rock Band As you
drive past MELODY MUFFLERS, trying not to obstruct traffic on Highway 125 through town, you can't help but be
distracted by the wonderful "junk men" rock band out front, as well as whatever other creatures
the proprietors have dreamed up in their spare time lately. There is an auto with a huge spider
welded atop, a T. Rex and all sorts of other clever creatures. These guys are so creative they even
won a local art award last year.

recent issue of Natl' Geographic for his artwork, that is displayed in front of the shop, made out of mufflers and assorted etc. Also...Mike Hammond (the owner) plays drums for a local band called Iguana Hat!

Auto Part "Muffler Family" Hey, my muffler shop is in Walla Walla. It all started with the muffler family: Muff Man, his wife Muffy, son of a muff man and their dog "Spot Weld." After a protest from some conservative residents,
Muffy traded in her big funnels for smaller ones. Other stories about the art can be told. Go to 9th and chestnut and talk to Maniac Mike at Melody Muffler.
