Blotto has a website at:  https://blotto.net/index.html

The website has everything you'll need to know about the band, including Blotto merchandise.

The short version of their story is: Blotto was a regionally popular band from the Albany area in New York that mixed humor with a party band sound.  The band issued several independent EPs and an album, and received national exposure when their video for "I Wanna Be A Lifeguard" was aired on MTV. They opened for Blue Oyster Cult on a tour.  In spite of the national exposure, they were never signed to a major label contract.

I found print ads for The Chance Club & Restaurant that show Blotto was booked in January, March, July, September, October, and November in 1982, plus some press coverage.
