 A good portion of Moldy Ghetto's live shows were highly impromptu, with numerous gigs happening mere hours after acquiring them. Some of these gigs gained a respectable audience, while other's had absolutely no one in attendance. By 1995, Parrott and Hassett started working with singer, songwriter '''Deny Samoree''' as his rhythm section, forming the trio '''Rusty-Like'''. They subsequently opened for Moldy Ghetto at their shows, with Parrott performing double duties on drums with Rusty-Like, and then on vocals / guitar with Moldy Ghetto. Early on, Moldy Ghetto had energy and was cacophonous and silly. Later, the group shed it's humor and noisy ways, testing a sound that was more radio-friendly than noise rock, resulting in massive boredom for everyone.
-Jaded, the members of both groups went their separate ways in 1996. Parrott started recording as Kosmik Leprechaun, while Hassett became hCrink. They didn't perform together again, until a brief spate of gigs and recording sessions as Rusty-Like, during 2003 — 2004. Those sessions became demos for Rusty-Like's 2005 "''Pirouette''" CD. Since 2007, all surviving Moldy Ghetto (and Rusty-Like) material has been remastered and re-published, in digital format, by Completely Gone Recordings. In 2016, McCurdy reunited on guitar and electronics with original Moldy Ghetto drummer Whiteford, recording new material, some of which was released on Kosmik Leprechaun's 2018 album, "''Addendum''".
