Big Daddy
6PM-10PM 

So it was late one night as I stumbled into the local taphouse, when I caught sight of this big mean looking bugger standin' at the bar. He had a right beauty of a tattoo on his arm of one of them old fangled radio mics that are such the rage these days. 

I grabbed myself a pint and asked him if he could actually sing through one of 'em. After he punched me in the face, he said "I sing harder than I punch." so I was obliged to believe him. We got to talking 'bout music and decided we'd be best to put a band together. 

I heard about this other fella that liked to play his fore... uh.. four skins so we looked him up. Seems he had four arms and four legs the way he was playin those drums so we knew we had the right fella for the job. 

After many months of crack heads and cracking heads looking for someone who could fill out the sound, we three kings heard this tall bruiser thumping away and asked if he'd join our merry band of aged misfits. After finishing his bottle of Jack, he grinned an evil grin, and so it began. 

We have the "if it's too loud, shoot me 'cause I'm getting too old!" aging singer; 

The quiet offstage, can't get him to shut up onstage drummer; 

The bass player who needs his bass in one hand and a shot glass in the other to keep him balaced; 

And finally, me, the rock star guitar god wanna-be who's not content till your ears bleed! 

Big Daddy was born.
