Although
it is now a mere part of my past, Alloy Jacks continues
to mean quite a bit to me. I began playing guitar when
I was thirteen years old and could not wait to start playing
in a punk rock band. Forming and keeping a band was always
difficult for me for a variety of reasons. Ultimately,
we never really went anywhere, but I did learn a lot.
The lineups were many, although Tony Mainiero and I were
the constant.
If
you have any media related to Alloy Jacks, I would love
to have it on the website.
