Favorite Band Memory:

Driving aimlessly around Albany, NY to hear the radio debut of “Expectations” on 104.9 The Edge. It was a small, but incredibly meaningful moment in my life.

At our very first show, I attempted to woo the crowd by taking the mic off the stand during “Expectations.” The cable popped out of mic not once, but twice in a row AND with two different mics. Luckily, we all sing. Sorry about stealing your mics, Russ and Dave!
