First Band
We never came up with a name for the first band. It didn't last too long but it was kinda fun. The members were Joanus Hotart (singer), Jeremy Garcie (guitar), Todd Sanders (drums), and me (guitar). There wasn't a certain lead guitarist. Jeremy and I took turns I guess you could say. It was cool and funny. The other guitarist and I would learn all of these songs but the singer (nervous I guess) really wouldn't sing that much. It was understanding. This was the first time for all of us to be in a band.
After a couple of practices we were able to find a bass player, T.J. Roy, but he didn't stay long. It was understanding. I didn't either. I was 15 at this time.

Not long after
Not long after, the bass player my previous band tried out, T.J. Roy, invited me to try out for another band looking for another guitarist. I guess I impressed him. Anyway, the members I tried out for was Victor Frith (singer), David Martin (guitar), and Sam Scolodge (drums).
I guess they liked me. After they gave me a list of songs to learn I learned them and I guess I did good. At time went on I started to know these guys better. They all became good friends. We always practiced on Friday and Saturday nights. What really got me was each practice some how ended up like being a little concert. Women always crowded the practice room up, always.
As time went on the other guitarist left. I guess you could say I was getting within luck. When the other was there, I was just rhythm. Not any more.
All of the sudden, we had a gig. Of course it wasn't at a bar, we were all too young but it was fun of course. This was my second gig. The first wasn't really anything. The third gig was kinda big for me. For the third one we played outside at Frank & Janie's during a crawfish boil. It was very fun even though I was nervous.
Because of certain happenings, this band was over. No reason of my doings just things that happen.

Psychotic Illusion
I was with this band for a while. We only played at four different places and didn't get too far. The members for this band were Lance Harmon (bass), Matt Mathews (drums), Todd Haley (guitar), and me (of course, guitar).
During this time we were all about eighteen so of course we were able to play at bars. The only hard thing about this was we never really had a singer. The first bar gig we had no singer. Was only able to play about four songs. Found out why. This was a country bar. Later we opened up for a band at Duck Blinds with a try out singer. The gig went great. The crowed loved us but the singer soon left and the bar is now an exit on 165. Funny huh?

Fany Mucc?
Members of this band was Vince Worley (vocals), Jonathon Davis (bass), Matt Mathews (drums), and of course me. With this band, we never played anywhere. Really the only thing we accomplished was recording three originals.

Jacob's Latter
This band went well. We played at too many places for me to list. The members were Jacob Powell (singer); Jonathon Davis, also know as Poo, (bass); Terry Harper (drums); and me. After a while the drummer left and was replaced with Jacob's brother, Waylon Powell. In this band, we wrote too many originals to remember. We were all together for about three years. Women I guess just broke us apart.
