My first gig: My first show was the Carl Casper Auto Show "Battle of the Bands" with E flat in February 1996. We finished 13th…hmmm? The 2nd show was a lot more entertaining at an old elementary school, transformed into a bar called the "Borderline" with a newly formed band named Flaw and old school favorites, Engrind. The venue actually messed up their spelling on the marquee and it read…Slaw! F'ing hilarious! That's how far E flat goes' back in the scene! I was barely 19 years old then.

Hobbies: Sports Memorabilia and Sports. My hidden passion is talk radio.

Favorite movies: Pink Floyd's "The Wall" and "Live at Pompeii". Dazed ‘n Confused, Velvet Goldmine, Almost Famous, Hedwig and the Angry Inch,

Favorite food: Anything off my Grill and beer.

Favorite place: An any ocean on a beach. On a stage in front of a huge crowd. Outside, on a stage, at any ocean on a beach in front of a large crowd.

Bad habits: I literally pull my hair out in places. I'm also obsessed with being on time and I can also tell (creepily) when another song has been used or referenced for another song.

What I'm listening to nowadays: The new Deftones and the new E flat.

Coolest thing I've done: I am a sophomore at McKendree University. I hope to graduate in two years with a Marketing degree. Right now I have a 3.75 GPA. Beer and homework do go well together so far.

Most embarrassing moment: Being born. Ultrasounds weren't very accurate back in the Seventies and I was deemed Stacy, the first beautiful daughter of a barely fifteen-year-old mother and father of 19 years. I popped out on April Fool's Day, packing a wiener.

Who do you love: I love my new girlfriend (Kim Phillips), Mom (Debbie), Dad (Marty), Step-mom (Dianna) and all my family, plus Max the Dog, Pickles and Gracie (my cats) and THE UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY WILDCATS!!!!

When/where did you first get some: If yourself counts it was Christmas Night, 1988. I was 12 years old and…oh well, they say if you work hard at something, good things will come. That was a hell of a lot better that a Nintendo game.
