| Mike's Crap! |
| Email The Emperor at: mykeychainrecords@yahoo.com |
| Mike has been called the nicest and quietest member of the group. This is mostly by people who are either drunk or don't know him. Those who do know him just call him a member. Mike has been playing guitar since he was 4 feet 9 inches tall. He is now 5 feet 11 inches and not much better. In his spare time Mike is a dictator for a small European country. When the band do pry him out of the house they soon regret it as Mike has the annoying habit of spitting water on everything during the show. If slightly prompted Mike has many stories about "fisting" & "felching" that he can produce, most likely at the most inopportune moment. Unknown to the public is the fact that Mike indeed wears a wig. Mike keeps small children imprisoned in his home and forces them to 'finish their plates'! Commonly known as an 'unbelievable bastard' Mike tries to make up for this shortcoming by writing nasty songs about his dead parents. Mike is the only person who never argues with me. For that I thank him. P.S. Girls. His wife's a saint! |

Here's one of my favorite pictures. It's my good buddy Tim Ivory.
Tim & I grew up together & learned guitar together. We formed our first
band in high school & here we are playing New Year's Eve 1981/82 at
Christensen's bar on University & Snelling. What a dive. The first night
we played there there was a knife fight & someone pulled a gun. Wait,
that's not just Tim, who's hiding there?
Lets look a little closer....

Well, well, well, it's our old buddy Sue Corkran! Sue was Calvin's then girlfriend. In time
ALL the girlfriends would join the band at the jobs although only Sue had the distinction of a
special seat.. We even still warmly remember the times after the jobs when the band would
have to unpack the equipment & load it in the basement. The girls would entice & soothe us
with comments of " hurry up we are tired" & "stop fooling around you had time for that
earlier". Ah, the good old days! Those days stopped when Mike made it a rule that the
women had to drive themselves. It was a fight, but it was nicer for the guys. Anyway, Sue.
As you can see she has the seat of honor snuggled in right behind my amp. This spot not only
saved her from the fights, it allowed a birds eye view of her sweetie! This, of course, was to
prevent Calvin from speaking to any of those bad, wicked, nasty, bar sluts that wanted to
speak with her Man! Cal never chatted any dollies up but Sue was there just in case some
one wanted to seduce him with comments like, "Can you guys turn it down", or "I'm sorry.
Was that your jacket I threw up on?". Sue was always in intense concentration mode as is
evidence by the look on her face.In addition nothing was left to chance.
If Cal might get it in his head to, oh say, not come straight back from the restroom or perhaps
not return with 7up in time, Sue would 'remind' him of his slight indiscretion by her
omnipresent 'sharp stick of correction'. Here it is in close up.

| Here we have your friendly neighborhood Creeper & his then girlfriend, Linda. Linda was, how shall we put it delicately, a full figured gal. Terry was fond of referring to her as 'Jabba the Hut'. Sean claims that Linda was never as big as "the Whopper" & as one who has seen the Whopper, I can attest to that. Sean & Linda are unfortunately no longer together. Sean tells me some nights he still awakes in a cold sweat imagining that her giant head is floating above him smacking it's lips stating " I need food". I will stop there as I am getting the 'willies'. |
| How can you even begin to describe what's going on over to your right? This is Albatross circa 1977 prior to my joining. Clockwise top left are: Joe Freppart, Steve Meier, Paul Haider, John Steiner, Calvin Baysinger & John Gangl.All nice Catholic boys who all graduated from St. Bernards on Rice St. These guys were part rock band, part polka/wedding band. I'm just sorry that I never got one of those shirts. Bastards! |
| Our good friend Kristen Schuldt ripping up the stage with us in River Falls. Kris is a great singer and a really nice person. She works under the band names of Hydraulic Woman or Immaculate Contraption. Check her out. Even if she won't link to us on her web site. |
| Left to right: Glen Dawson, Chrissy Sullivan, Emperor, Calvin. What a cute shot. Calvin is sleeping after listening to the umpteenth pack-down story. Glen is quite obviously practicing for the bukakke video he is auditioning for in the morning. That wacky guy! |
