       Paul Lyllyde's Dying Dog article
       By: moleshow Date: July 8, 2019, 10:40 pm

       In an interesting turn of events, a music reviewer of sorts has
       posted about a musical artist by the name of Dying Dog. A user
       by the name of Punkrocktopus found this by searching for "Alvin
       Snow", a name mentioned in a recent Residents article. The post
       by Paul Lyllde is here, and mentions this very same person:

       I'll follow up in the next post with some of his theories and
       threads.

       The Punkrocktopus Theory Vol. 1
       "This Dyin' Dog artcile is so buck wild it feels like some
       Residents ARG like The Bunny Boy.
       This was posted yesterday on Tumblr with the credit going to a
       Paul Lyllyde, if you google that name, this article is the ONLY
       page that contains that name.
       There is however a track called L.Y.L.L.Y.D.E. off of Snakeboy
       by KILLDOZER.
       Which looking it up apparently stands for "Live your life like
       you don't exist"
       If I had to make a quick theory right at this moment, the Blues
       Songs will be released under the name of Dyin' Dog as that
       character's original recordings and then the Residents' album
       released as The Residents will follow shortly thereafter.
       That thumbnail at the top of the page isn't even the Dyin' Dog
       45 the article talks about, it's a band called The Kings of
       Nuthin'. Why is that image posted in an unrelated article?
       It also mentions the book "The Cambridge Guide to Blues and
       Gospel, Nothing But the Blues" which as far as Google is
       concerned doesn't exist. "Nothing but the blues : the music and
       the musicians (New York : Abbeville Press, 1993), a book edited
       by Lawrence Cohn"
       Scratch that previous mention that he was name-checking books
       that don't exist.
       " In a brief series of correspondence dated early 1975, a young
       musician named Roland Sheehan sang the praises of a wild new
       blues singer he was working with. The description sounded
       decidedly like Dyin’ Dog, though the name Sheehan used was
       “Alvin Snow.”"

       Part Two
       It was June, 1970. Roland Sheehan, then nineteen, had been the
       organ player in The Alliance, the teenage band Fox had managed
       back in Louisiana. Having just completed his second year at
       Louisiana Tech, Sheehan had signed up for a summer course at San
       Francisco State College.
       (etc)
       I spent that entire first afternoon turning over rocks and just
       googling various phrases and came away empty-handed
       unfortunately.
       I'm kind of waiting for more news out of the Residents' camp
       before going back on the hunt."

       I might have an advancement on the Kings Of Nuthin lead... the
       image Paul used on his blog is from their single ‘Get Busy Livin
       Or Get Busy Dyin’ on the label Bad Dog. when you search ‘Dyin’
       Dog’ on eBay it’s all that comes up.

       I don’t know if they’re connected beyond the usage of both
       ‘dyin’ and ‘dog’
