The name came from the band name being "The Wronge Sausage". Someone said, "No, it can't be just one wrong sausage. It needs to be, like, SIXTY Wrong Sausages!" Learning from previous experience, 60WS did not concern themselves with live shows, but rather focused on a demo tape. Rivers' small apartment allowed no room for drums, so Wilson put drums to tape using a Roland OctoPad. Karl said, "The demo took several weeks. Sessions squeezed into school and work schedules." The final demo was called the ''Cholesterol'' EP and contained four tracks. | The name came from the band name being "The Wronge Sausage". Someone said, "No, it can't be just one wrong sausage.

60WS held only seven practices in total between October 20 and November 20 of 1991. The band rehearsed the performances of their ''Cholesterol'' material as well as new songs like "THe Barnaby Jones", "Tennis Ball" and "Run the Gamut". Additionally, old BUsh songs like "Beyond LIfe" and "Crayon Man" were rehearsed. Rivers' own Fuzz songs "Answer Man" and "Burn My Britches" were rehearsed and finally, the Wilon/Finn song "Sheriff Wong", which was a song about a member of law enforcement who carried a bong. | |||
Over Thanksgiving weekend, in Petaluma, 60 Wrong Sausages played the Phoenix Theater, it's only gig. Shortly after, the band was no more. Around that time, Karl wrote "band breakup seems inevitable." | |||
