Mike:

"John was a real person and exactly like his working class image. We
were lucky to have a picture taken in the locker room or weight room of the school that hired us."

Dave:

"I don't remember much about this 1986 show.  I did like the band, which was basically a very good Bruce Springsteen knockoff with original songs.  We covered 'On the Dark Side' (the theme from 'Eddie & The Cruisers') at several of our college shows during that year and it always went over big."
