1. Ok Kelly... here's you big 15 minutes of fame. Lets start
off with your history as a musician... tell us how ya got
started
Well, It all started when i was 4 yrs
old and my mother left some cooking pots out after doing dishes,
me being a spry young farm lad I eagerly began whaling on
them with two spoons and....
Hold on, hold on.... not that far
back.
Oh... uhhh ill jus fast forward then. Lemme see... ummmm.
Ok my first band was called "Commerce Drive", we were probably
one of the first Iowa bands to attempt playing mostly original
tunes which actually went over very well.
We had quite a following for a buncha stoners and drop outs
from Valley High School. After that i matured and began my
heavy metal faze and did alot of jamming with your usual musicians
now seen playing around (Jim Root, Ronnie Richardson, Randy
Van Hosen)...but I never did get into anything serious with
any of them mainly cause I was too busy screwing off.
Then I met the legendary bass player (who i still feel is
Iowa's BEST bass player) Tom Murphy who was then playing with
"Thunder Teaz" (Lance Harrison and Gary Benson), who were
in search of a drummer who could travel and didnt have to
pay child support. So....(me being one of the few musicians
around who had'nt knocked up a groupie yet) ..
I got the gig. We were signed with A.R.M. out of St. Paul,
Minn. and we were really popular up north, we even had a small
fan club of drunk'n groupies who we were sorta scared of...yelling
and screaming our names during songs and pretty much embarrassing
us where ever we played...it got to the point were we almost
had them kicked out a few times. (Funny...now that i think
bout it.... it sorta mirrored my luck with women at the time).

2. So OK then, tell us how you got involved in doing promotional
art and CD covers for such bands as "LA Guns" ?
Well the "L.A. Guns" gig was kind of a fluke. I'd always been
known as "thee" local artist to go to for any band logo designs
or other rock'n roll type of art. So as luck should have it, I
happened to be late on delivering some art to a local bar owner
in 1994. It jus so happened that "L.A. Guns" was setting up stage
for a show that night and were waiting to do a sound check.
As i was showing the owner of the bar my finished designs, Tracii
Guns and Johnny Crypt began helping themselves to my portfolio.
(to tell ya the truth, I had no idea LA Guns was there that night
and was kinda flattered by these two tattooed strangers oo-ing
and ah-ing at my artwork)... Thats when Tracii asked if Id be
interested in roughing up some sketches for there upcoming release
called "American Hardcore". Two monthes later they bought ALL
the art and roughs and used two different covers on the the ONE
CD.
