Lee Pinkerton-Drums, Guitar, and Vocals.

I owe my love for music and playing to my sisters, brother, and my neighbor Mr. McGarvey, who gave me my first guitar lesson and refused to teach me any of "that damn Beatle music". I got my first guitar when I was 15 and my first drum lessons( all two of them) at 16. No drum set, Dad wanted me playing something he could shut off if it got too loud. I was also fortunate to have friends in high school who played really well and had really cool gear. Played guitar by ear along with the stereo and would pick songs apart. I Ruined quite a few albums that way. In the mid 80's I played guitar and some drums with friends in a jam band called the Lynched Mob and we even got airplay once on WXPN (at 3am). In the 90s I did a lot of basement jamming with friends from "the mob" and had a cup of coffee on guitar with a two girl pop act called Energi. My first gig was a packed cafeteria of elementary schoolers. After that, a one year stint in a basement metal band called Silent Rage. I kept playing with my close friends, and about 8 years ago I got a call from Bill. He said he heard I played some drums and wanted to know if I'd be interested in playing at his July 4th party. It was the first time I ever played to an adult crowd (and sang while drumming). The rest they say is history.
