Punkin Pie

i first met emmalee, brad and kirke when they were pretty young kids from TX and played in the band ROSA (see ROSA for more info on that). After ROSA broke up PUNKIN' PIE became their main band. sadly, shortly after their album came out on PIX, Kirke quit the band. Kirke was replaced by my good friend Joe McCann.

Emmalee made me very good foods in TX once and has taught me many things that i would have never thought of. She is pretty swell.

I met Joe one day in my yard in bloomington. He had responded to my neighbor, mikey patriots, message board post about needing a ride from chicago to bloomington. Joe lived in the suburbs of chicago and gave him a ride. he had never been to bloomington before and he really liked it right away. one night we hung out and he helped me print t-shirts for plan-it-x school bus fest. (this is how i found out he was color blind) we talked a lot and became good friends. in Athens, GA. later that summer, when we found out that Cathy would not be re-joining the tour, i asked Joe to take her place and he agreed. for the first few days everyone thought he was someone's little brother up there in the front in his tight striped t-shirt. after a while they all grew to love him like i did and many people say he saved the tour. my best memories are of underaged joe holding a martini and calmly working the door while doubling as the stage manager (telling bands when to quit). in short, Joe rules.
