It's like such a strange thing.

No, dude, when I was a kid, when I was in high school, our band, Fusion, got involved in a battle of bands at Brother Rice High School, my high school.

And the band that we... We thought, we got this in the bag, because only one band got paid at the Battle of Bands.

Then we heard who our opponents were, and they were from about 10 miles east of Brother Rice.

South side, near the lake, kind of a little rougher area.

They were called the TW4.

And I heard that they had a keyboard player, lead singer, who was pretty talented, pretty cocky.

And so they came into my high school, and...

We either heard the rumor or started the rumor that their girlfriends, who are a little older, they were a couple years older, a little hotter, went up to the guys and talked them out of their ticket stub, which was the ballot.

And these girls, as I have been known to say, stuffed more than their bras.

Because we lost the battle of hands, and it turned out that that was Dennis DeYoung.

and the Panazzo brothers and John Currie.

They were called the TW4.

Amazing.

And so we go back a long way with them.

That's amazing.

So I know where they're from.

They're from 10 miles down 95th Street, baby.

Well, I sang the original.

All my vocals are on the third album.
