    A talent competition in Kevin St. College back in 1986 (gulp). I was 16 at the time and had to step over some passed out bodies on the way up the main stairs - I thought that was the life for me.

    We played some Black Sabbath covers, and sucked. I mean, really sucked. I listened to tapes of that band from then a few years ago and couldn't get over how appalling we were and how any of us could have even considered playing in public.

    We lost (naturally enough) to some Winter's Reign type band playing Bon-Jovi covers with two very attractive female backing singers.

    This much talent....*this* much talent...
