I hale from the Hoosier state of
Indiana. I moved to Colorado in '79 and now live in Greeley with my girlfriend,
Wendy. My rock n' roll insanity began in 1975 with the ever inspirational "Kiss
Alive" album and a couple of years later with AC/DC. So, as they say, the rest
is history. I rocked through the 80's with a couple of different bands playing all
the 80's hard rock and metal I could find. Around '95 I joined Slick to wreak havoc
with him and to scare little old ladies out
of all the places we would play! My influences range from the simplistic and solid playing
of Peter Criss (KISS) and, of course, Phil Rudd (AC/DC) to the power drumming of Tommy
Aldridge (Ted Nugent, Ozzy), Frankie Banali (Quiet Riot, W.A.S.P) and Fritz Randow
(Sinner, Victory). I also crave the technical side of Mike Portnoy ( Dream Theater)
and Scott Rockenfield (Queensryche) to the all out double bass assault of Bobby Jarzombeil
(Riot, Rob Halford), Jorg Michael
(Stratovarius) and Uli Kusch (Helloween). Last but not least I admire the shear
determination of Rick Allen (Def Leppard). A one armed drummer--you gotta love it!
So, there you have it, my little notch in rock n' roll history. Hope you're still
awake. Thankx for checkin' out the web site and reading about us. We'll see ya
on the road!!
Rock on and keep it heavy----Dave
Tim Mayhan
This 30 something year old music extremist discovered his dependency and passion for the universal language (Music) at a very early age. Music has always been his savior, mentor, teacher, best friend, worst enemy, love, lust, disgust and ultimate destiny. He started playing bass guitar in the 9th grade and has always stuck to his roots meaning true love for the stuff he loves. "I'll always play what I love to play regardless if there is 1,000 people in the audience or 0 because I play for me", says Tim. Tim is not just another metal head. He loves to listen to everything from Beethoven to Slayer-all that is great and small, loud and quiet, soft and sweet, masculine and feminine, a to z, etc. When it comes to playing bass, Tim says he likes to take that axe and F#@# IT UP!!!!

Clint Wilcox
Born and raised in Iowa, this superstar drumming sensation has more than quaked the midwest with his rock-a-billy/metal style of drumming and has since moved on to Fort Collins to pursue his dreams of rock-n-roll and stardom. When he's not on tour throughout the country with Slick Machine, he's jamming up a storm with his local Fort Collins band, LOS FEDERALES, whose members include a surfy, funked out guitarist fresh out of Hawaii, and another "cornbread" Iowan on bass. In the winter he enjoys tearing up the gnarly powder up in the hills. For more info on the surfy-jammy sounds of Los Federales, please write to Clint at 516 Mathews St., Ft. Collins, CO 80524.
