When I was 14 years old I had an encounter with one of the original members and bass player Mick Clear at a gig, who took an interest in my musical abilities.  Since then, the Original Line Up band has done several reunion shows in front of old and new fans and I have been the support act for each of them.  Performing in front of 400 people alongside these pros was such a thrill and something I will take with me and remember forever. It's been an invaluable experience and has opened up many doors and opportunities for me.
