Here is where we tell you a bunch of stuff about us.... Let us begin, shall we!

TIM LACY Gtrs Vocs etc..

       Tim Lacy was raised in the modest suburban environs of Westchester New York to a Fundamentalist Minister (His Mother) and an AT&T investigator (His Father).  He quickly realized that neither profession were in his future as he didn't really see too many chicks flocking around prayer meetings or at the phone company. He did, however, discover the "Devils" music at an early age (thank God) and decided he would pursue that, if not as a career, then as a lifestyle, which he embraced to the fullest. The electric guitar seemed to be the most suitable (an easily obtainable) weapon of choice and after discovering his first "Big Muff", he was off and running.......alot of times because someone was chasing after him.  He left the safety and boredom of the burbs and moved to the Big Apple, NYC! He quickly realized that sex, drugs and rock-n-roll were much more easily obtainable in New York City than in the suburbs so he decided to stick around. He kinda sucked at guitar but excelled at the sex and drugs part of it. As he grew weary of his debacherous lifestyle he decided he would pursue a professional role in the music industry and the rest is a semi-conscience state of history. He likes to keep his past private but has been known to drop a name or two here and there (Jake E.Lee, Ray Gillen, Steve Stevens, Eric Singer,Paul Pesco, Michael Schenker, Mitch Perry, Iggy Pop, Vanessa Williams, Mary J.Blige, Lenny Kravitz, David Bowie, Lou Reed, Roberta Flack, David Sanborn, Hall and Oates, Carly Simon, Sophie B. Hawkins, Sugar Ray, INXS, Radiohead, Savatage, Dimebag Daryll, White Zombie, Sebastian Bach, Sonny Rollins,  blah, blah,blah) but likes to maintain a modest accounting of his past.

DAN CARTWRIGHT DRUMS -n-STUFF

Many people have noted that Dans drumming style most likely started in his formative years. He was known for his incessant banging on various objects... mainly on the doors of neighbors and sometimes even strangers because he kept getting lost as a child. He never knew where he was but you knew he was at your door. He developed his "rapid fire" pounding style during this period because he was so friggin hungry and desperate to get home and eat something. This later proved to be a plus for him and has been a staple of his style ever since. His recent induction into the mysterious and clandestine organization only known as the "SOADS" (Society Of Ancient Drummers) has been not only an honor for this skin beater but a great achievment.  In a recent article that appeared in the Helsinki press, he was quoted by one reporter as saying "..."The drumstick is mightier than the drumbrush". Truer words were never spoken. But his drumming speaks for him best. One crack of the snare is all he needs to stop you dead in your tracks. One push of the kick pedal is enough to make your heart race and one crash of the cymbals is enough to push you over the edge.

COLIN ALMQUIST... BASS

On a bet, Colin took the lower strings off a piano, attached them to a 2x4 with some nails, slapped a telephone mic on it and walked into a recording session (of an artist who will remain nameless) and laid the whole thing down in one take. He demanded the lights be kept low and kept his back towards everyone else but it was clear...... this cat was crazy, man, CRAZY!  A self proclaimed living legend and not so bad golfer he is a man so full of his instrument, and himself, he has developed a condition that has become now known as "Bass Breath". He plays so hard that pieces of the instrument actually fly around the air and occasionally he swallows some of it, much like a cyclist that occasionally swallows a bug ..or something!  He actually breaths bass fumes. It's a documented medical fact!  But you don't need me to tell you. One listen to that thumping bass groove and it's all over ladies..... Oh, it's all over. He is known to some as the "Barry White" of Bass Players or should I say Bass "Playa"! Yeah! Funk me up, baby! Funk me up!
