Mike Heneger has been around guitars since the age of 2 months when he
first spit up on the guitar Elvis used in Viva Las Vegas. He has been with this
particular band since the beginning of time, or at least the early 80's. He has
many hobbies that keep him out of his wife's way as well as several pets; one
of which is named Callie whom he keeps locked up in the basement. He's a
Libra who likes long walks on the beach and throwing jello at neighborhood
children.
Doug Alden is a bass player extraordinaire. He usually plays while
standing on his head. We're not quite sure why he does this, we just leave
him be. A secret government operative in his spare time, Doug has a
unique capacity for eliminating undesirables from the venues we play. Not
to worry, as long as you don't bad mouth the Cubs or Mt. Dew you're
probably safe, probably.
Sharon Russell is the latest addition to the band. She comes to us from a
homeless shelter in the north of England. After arriving in the US, she
immediately took up residence with the first sucker she could find, Rusty.
Quickly shedding her English ways, Sharon now enjoys watching NASCAR,
drinking COLD beer and being suppressed by American censorship.
Jimbo Parrish has a great way of making you laugh, or scream, depending
on his mood. He really hates wearing pants so we put him behind the
drums it's better for everyone involved. When he's not running through the
streets of Lacon with fruit on his head, Jimbo likes to wreck stock cars just
for the heck of it.
Rusty Russell first started playing saxophone because someone said this would
get him dates, a fact he found out not to be true as upon entering High School,
he was immediately labeled a "band nerd". College was not much better and
he spent his nights mainly playing with his vintage Barbie collection. He
started playing with the band back in 1986, when his fashion and sense of style
fitted nicely. Unfortunately it hasn't changed since.
