The Backbone of the Band

People never get a good view of Adam, usually because Heather is hogging the spotlight in front of him...okay, just kidding. The real reason is that its because he's in the back, playing the drums. People say he's a mix of Keith Moon and Animal, The Muppet. I say he's unique and no other drummer compares. But he also likes the idea of the blog, and has decided to write a post for you, the fans:

"Word up, suckaz!

Some people claim they were born to rock, but I, truly, was born to rock. You know why? Because when I was conceived, my parents were screwing to the sounds of Foghat's "Slow Ride." Seriously. It's pretty f'ing gross.

Maybe that's why bashing the skins comes so damn easily to me. Hell, the first time I had a fork and knife in my hands as a baby, I was bashing away at everything in front of me. By the time I was three, I was using chop sticks as drum sticks and playing on pots and pans. But that's old news.

Playing music is the easy part of this ride. Being in a band is the hard part. Before you go out on the road, there's a lot of bullshit you never think about, but it comes apparent that politics and a bureaucracy exists, no matter how hard you try to fight it. But when we play the music, it all goes away. I take any frustrations out on my kit - that kind of anger and passion translates into what makes me unique.

I hate to be bitching, but you just have to tell the truth. This band can be fun to play with, but sometimes, it can be hard to live with. But I think that tension is what makes this band so incredible. And maybe we aren't all huggy-kissy at all times as Mike would like it to be, but we get over it and we play. Because that's all we know how to do.

Who cares. We fucking rock. And we fucking rock hard. Keep on trucking!"
