Fred Hicks:  

Life Since I graduated I have been playing in a rock band in Va, Vermont, Greenville,S.C., and Atlanta,Ga. It's been a wonderful journey! Have grown my hair down to my ass! Have traveled up and down the east coast. I still play guitar, but mainly have been a singer for the past 15 years. No I never got signed,but came close a few times. I know we have lost a few classmates lately, they have passed away. I must say that I miss those days. Had a ot of good times even though I wasn't in the "in" crowd. Rock and roll gave me that. Made a lot of friends, (mainly female) on the road. I have a lot of good stories to tell and not enough space in this segment. However, I have to give much thanks to those who helped me along the way. For example, Jim Butt, my neighbor and childhood friend who talked me into buying my first guitar. Fred Rains, for having the patience, devotion, and kindness to teach me many songs during High School. Darrell Mann, for inspiring me to reach for the stars and the many years we played in a band together locally and has been a life long friend. Andrew McNeely, for being a dear friend, band mate, and the closest person to being a brother to me. Chip Janousek, for being a dear friend, drummer, bandmate, and constant support. Dave Swann, band mate, and supporter of my dreams for over a decade.Greg Atkins, drummer and bandmate,just a real nice down to earth person. Chris husted, who helped me develop a tough skin for the business, band mate in many projects, my brotha! Harry Welch, one of the funniest guys I have ever played in a band with. Joe Klaugh, drummer and band mate of Bad Boyz. The late, great Jerry Mann whom I will never forget. We almost had it all. The guys in Impact of Burlington, Vermont, keep rockin boys. Randy Haney, of Greenville, S.C. band mate of Bad Intent, we had some exceptional times. Tom Young,...Expand for more
