Tom
Brightman
"Michael
J. Fox"
|
An early
member of the band, Tom left in the early 90's, moving to Vail, Colorado
to run
a ski shop. When he tired of that life of luxury, he moved back here
to hone up on his environmental management skills. Luckily for us,
he came back when we desperately needed a good trumpet player. It was
as if he never left.

Kevin
Liney |
Kevin
began filling in for our original lead vocalist when he took a sabbatical
in South America. We're still wondering what happened to him. Kevin
is as comfortable singing Frank Sinatra as he is belting out a Goo
Goo Dolls tune. He always keeps the crowd rockin with his "animated" stage
presence. |
 |
Dave
Murphy
"Murph" |
Murph
joined the band a few years ago after filling in a few times for Mike or
Milt when they were unable to play, for whatever lame excuses they came up
with. A master of his instrument whether playing lead or rhythm, there isn't
a song he can't figure out. |
 |
Mike
O'Malley
"Little
Mikey" |
An
original member of the band, Mike's seen it all. The good gigs and the bad...the
sane band members and the wackos. Through it all, he just keeps playing...cause
that's what he does. |
 |
Fred
Peirce
"Ramrod" |
We've
gone through many, many keyboard players, but none have been quite like Fred.
A mild mannered HR manager by day... a crazy, wild, wing bowl going,
sports loving, key banging, song singing, walking jukebox being maniac by
night. Nobody plays the keys like Fred. |
 |
Paul
Quigley
"Quigs......"
"Little Paulie" "Peiffer"
|
The
man who brought it all together...believe it or not. Paul is definitely the
most sane member of the band, with his feet firmly planted on the ground.
Never one to rush to a decision, Paul has been the calming influence
on us all. And on top of that, he is a phenominal drummer...always
playing quietly, in perfect time, and never, ever overplaying. |
 |
Mark
Turosinski
"Milt" |
An
original member of the band, Milt has stayed and played through thick and
thin. Always the first in the band to buy a new piece of equipment,
he has shown us all how to be frugal and keep up with technology at the same
time. A smokin' bass player, and a "strict" vegetarian, Milt keeps
in shape by with a daily 5 mile run. |
 |
Jim
Verrelli
"Slicked-back Fonzi" |
Jim
began with the band by sitting in on drums whenever Paulie would come
out and sing. What a difference it made from when Lou tried to do that. From
there he just kind of merged into the band playing percussion, and
filling in the empty space. His claim to fame...he knows every line from
every movie ever made. |
 |
Lou
Verrelli
"
The Hot Headed Italian"
|
An
original member of the band, Lou soon made us "His" band... or so he tells
us. He started as the original keyboard player, but quickly moved to sax,
(thank God), where he blows with the best of 'em. Whether blowing a soulful
melody or getting us gigs, he has been a pillar of sobriety for the rest
of us. We all look up to him, and want to emulate him in every way. |
