Strike up the band cause we're getting The Party started on the  latest edition of Positive Cynicism's monthly series Wonder Why.  @chadsmart and @MikeDeKalb break out the festive hats (or are those  mouse ears) to discuss the pop group The Party's biggest hit and career.  Formed by members of the new Mickey Mouse Club, The Party hit the  charts in 1991 with a cover of the Dokken classic "In My Dreams" off  their second album In the Meantime In Between Time. Unfortunately, the  dream would end after a few weeks on the charts. The group would release  one other studio album before the party was over.

Chad and Mike break down the In the Meantime album while giving their  impressions on why the group didn't reach the success of other similar  early 90s pop groups. There are some interesting cover song choices and  interpretations on the album.

After the discussion about The Party, it's time to reveal the picks  of the month. This month's choices are a southern country/rock band from  Nashville and a purple phenom from Minnesota.
