Danny Benair, Lance Loud, Ian Ainsworth, Kristian Hoffman, Rob du Prey, Kevin Kiely, and Paul Rutner.

Rosemarie and others appreciated and knew the Quick. Um, I shot them hanging out but that's about it. Not a big power pop fan, unless really funny, like the Mumps and Dickies.

Now it can be told. Pleasant had a serious case of lust for Kevin. I kept hinting that he, ah, might not be into her. I got the distinct feeling he was, ah, not into pretty girls. He was a sweetie, and that didn't stop her. I don't know for a fact if she convinced him to take a chance on her or not.

From Paul:
     "I am still friends with Danny [Benair from the Quick] and we speak often. He is coming to Austin in March [2005]for SXSW and I am sure that we will see each other. I love the picture of me with that fantastic green sharkskin suit."

The girls were nuts for Rob, except for this gal. I only had eyes for Lance.

Ah, where to begin? Look at his face, don't look at my fat ass. You gotta be me, without vanity, to post a shot like that, but it's one of my faves. I told you I loved to fool around with Lance. I was showing him one of my gifts, offering to do to him what I was doing to that piece of cloth. Look at his face, what an expression!

Although there's no shot, I later gave one of the Whisky employees a blow job on that sofa. He had just taken marquee letters down. I grabbed an "E," but always wished I could have grabbed my fave band's name, X.
