Dave's Story
Life
Basically right out of high school I like joined Slayer to replace their second drummer, uh, Paul Bostaph. That was like your typical sex, drugs and rock n roll lifestyle for a few years. Eventually I felt I could no longer "mature as an artist" within the, er, confines of Slayer. It was at that point that I knew Creed needed me. Besides Slayer were a little heavy on the like devil worshipin' and a good Jew like me couldn't hang with that no mo. Although Creed are motivated by their interest in like Jesus as their one true messiah, and I as a Jewish Headbanger, cannot buy into that, I decided I would still join the band. Drumming for Creed was great until one day me and the singer (whose name escapes me thanks to my earlier drug-riddled Slayer days) like got into a quasi-psuedobulgarian religious debate and he decided that we should box in a ring, rather than, ya know, duke it out like dirty wildebeasts.

through with Fred Durst. At that point I knew it was, like, time to move on. I had made enough money anyway and lots of girls from high school were gettin' in touch because they could smell the money. And I was just like, yo, baby, um ya know like where were you in high school or whatever? I mean I had blonde hair for a while ya know. I was hip I told them with relative indifference. At that point I decided that at the ten year reunion it would be high time to debut my new post-Slayer, post-Creed band dubbed Goatpeenisrising (which, personally, was my like second or third choice for a name). Our first record will be out soon and I imagine we'll hit the road perchance supporting like Ashton Kutcher's band or if all goes duly unnoticed a side project of Limp Bizkit's old guitar player's brother. Well thanks for readin' this far y'all ninjas, you were always supportive of my headbangin' ways in high school and that's what led to my like success as a high level rocker.
