I picked up the guitar in second grade and learned a few chords, then I kind of lost interest. My brother wanted to play guitar a few years later, and bought an acoustic. When there was a guitar in the house again, I found myself picking it up and learning songs. In high school, a friend of mine started showing me how to play lead guitar and a lot of old rock �n� roll songs. I really took to that. I was also very shy when I was younger and couldn�t talk to girls to save my life. When I played guitar at parties, I got more attention from the girls and found that, if I played music, I didn�t have to talk so much.

I had a rockabilly compilation CD with a bunch of stuff on it. Commander Cody�s cover of �Hot Rod Lincoln� was on it. I was reading the song titles with Johnny, and my roommate at the time mentioned that he thought �Hot Rod Lincoln� would be a good band name. He wasn�t too hip to what we were doing, but was always full of advice�so, we blew him off. The next day, Johnny called me, and we both thought he was right�hence, we became Hot Rod Lincoln.

I was looking for a couple of guys to start jamming with and, at the time, I worked in a warehouse with a lot of people. Someone told me that this guy played bass. It was then that I was introduced to Johnny G. I told him of my vision of starting a band that did only old rock �n� roll and rockabilly. He was into the idea and picked up an upright bass shortly after we got the group going.
