I got my first guitar just after I turned 17. Immediately I hooked up with my friend Mark who also had a guitar and we started writing lots of songs about high school janitors (we didn't have girlfriends yet...give us some slack).
Later that year we played a show at our school's coffeehouse and got all these requests to play our best known tune, "If I Was a Janitor". When those grade nine girls started throwing their training bras on stage, I knew at that very moment this was the reason I was put on earth. |

Does a mailman know that he delivers mail? Does a garbage man know that he picks up garbage? I think at one point in your life you wake up one morning and say "This is what I was born to do". For us it was ROCK.
More specifiacally: November 18, 1996. |

All I can say is this.
Buying three albums, and listening to them religiously while doing my grade seven paper route. 1. Guns'N'Roses-Appetite For Destruction 2. Body Count-self titled 3. SKID ROW-self titled c. |
