The Talking Propellerheads was a high technology satire/rock/comedy band performing from 1982 through 1996. The group was composed of employees of Data General Corporation. They were notable as the "corporate band" for Data General for over 14 years, playing at industry events and company functions. Their songs documented the fall of the minicomputer industry of the 1980s with their songs about Wang, DEC, Prime, IBM and other companies. Their songs reported on changes in the minicomputer industry such as An Wang's retirement ("they thought that Fred could run the company, but An said "Fred, you're not the man for me"), as well as documenting some of the players that formed the industry: Data General founders (Ed DeCastro and Herb Richman, in "Eddie and Herb", Tom West in "Stairway to Heaven", and Ken Olsen in "Dec Stinks").
The band performed in NYC, Boston, Orlando, Denver, Kansas City, Dallas, Nashville, Atlanta and San Francisco as well as other venues. They also entertained at industry events such as Lotus World, NADGUG (Users group meetings), The Grey Eagles organization and the Uniforum Trade Show, where they opened for the Beach Boys, entertaining over 5,000 people. The band members initially were Systems Engineers (known as propellerheads), but over the years several of the band were Account Executives for the company.
