The Band / History

---

Hissstory

The two amigos, Mike and Charlie, met in the fourth grade. Recently our shared interest in music started the formation of DS, and it went from jamming random covers and stuff to the addition and subtraction of members, leaving Mike and Charlie. After that, Mike went to camp and met Kirk Page, who plays bass and lives close to Mike, so he joined the band. Mike then recruited Matt Kennedy as the bands drummer. Although new to drumming, Matt has rhythm and can lay down the bash beats like no other, bringing the bands number to a healthy foursome. After awhile Matt decided that he wanted to be a guitarist instead, and said that he's gonna practice and join the band when he dictates. Mike the goat man, charlie the lanky redhead, kirk the amazing plastic fantastic man, and matt...he's just sexy.
