They take their name from a lyric in "I Am the Walrus": "Yellow matter custard, dripping from a dead dog's eye".
More a project than a band, they performed only twice: on May 17, 2003 at Upper Montclair, New Jersey and May 18, 2003 at BB King's Blues Club, New York.

 I Am the Walrus
Lennon called childhood friend, Pete Shotton[?], and asked him about a silly playground nursery rhyme that they used to sing when they were kids.
Shotton reminded Lennon of the words; "Yellow matter custard, green slop pie, All mixed together with a dead dog's eye, Slap it on a butty, ten foot thick, Then wash it all down with a cup of cold sick".
Lennon borrowed a couple of words from the rhyme, added the three old unfinished ideas and the result was the lyrics to "I Am The Walrus".

This particular album, their career for that matter, begins like a locomotive charging out of the station with, "Into The Dimentia." The gears grind and it picks up speed quickly.
For starters, it is hardly appropriate to fit a tribute of this magnitude onto one disc, so Yellow Matter Custard decided to expand this homage to a double disc set.
Yellow Matter Custard decides to represent this collection of popular hits in one solitary song, "Come Together." Overall, the choices offer a little of everything without showing favoritism to any particular album or commercial rating.

Yellow Matter Custard - One Night In New York City
Yellow Matter Custard is the brainchild of Neal Morse and Mike Portnoy, and from the band title you can guess it is a Beatles tribute.
Joining Neal Morse (keyboards, guitars, fuzz bass and vocals) and Mike Portnoy (drums and vocals) are Paul Gilbert on guitars and vocals and Matt Bissonette on bass and vocals.

This comes through on the CD and even more on the DVD - I haven't seen so many smiles on stage at any show in my life and it's infectious even in my living room in Pittsburgh two years later.
The song list is Lennon heavy with a good representation of George's under appreciated songs and again, by going with YMC favorites the show is really stronger and more interesting than if it had been a show of "the number ones".
This is definitely not for casual Beatles fans, who won't get it I fear.

The reason for the change in mixes was because the radio was inserted during the mono mixdown.
The song has been parodied as "Piggy In The Middle" by The Rutles (the Rutles TV show includes a highly accurate parody of the song's appearance in Magical Mystery Tour), and as "The Mole from the Ministry" by The Dukes of Stratosphear (actually XTC).
The Simpsons made a reference of this song in episode number 312, Bart of War, when Bart gets trippy from an old novelty Beatles soda he says "Yellow matter custard, dripping from a dead dog's eye" while hallucinating Milhouse "morph" through the different phases of the band's career.
