Pregame with some cheddar biscuits for this one.

Lobster’s Gyro Shack, a Tampa food-rock band, is back in Ybor Heights (home of This Little Pig restaurant and food truck, mind you) to play songs like “The Beef Cow” and “Let’s Talk About Biscuits.”

If you think a band featuring members with names like Hushpuppy (drums), Cray Cray Crawfish (bass, the instrument), Langosta Gigante (guitars) and frontperson Squid Vicious is too out of your lane, you probably have more in common than you think.

“I really hate my father,” Vicious sings at one point. “I want a tomahawk steak.”

Indeed.

Tickets to see Lobster’s Gyro Shack play Deviant Libation in Tampa on Saturday, June 21 are still available for $10 at the door
