RANDY STARTED PLAYING GUITAR AT THE AGE OF 8, HE FIRST BOUGHT A 1969 GIBSON LES PAUL BY MOWING YARDS AND DOING ODD JOBS, HE SAT FOR HOURS IN HIS ROOM LISTENING TO JIMI'S "ARE YOU EXPERIENCED" ALBUM
LEARNING ALL THE TECHNIQUES HE COULD ACQUIRE. AT ONE OF HIS ODD JOBS (OF CLEANING GUM OFF THE FLOOR) FOR FREE ADMISSION TO HEAR SOME OF THE GREATEST ROCK BANDS OF TODAY; RANDY MET BILLY GIBBONS THE REV HIMSELF, AT A LIL A PLACE RIGHT HERE IN GROVES TEXAS CALLED THE TOWN HOUSE.
RANDY WAS ALWAYS BACKSTAGE, FRONTSTAGE...TILL HE GOT ON STAGE! HE LEARNED BILLY'S TECHNIQUES AND WENT ON TO ADMIRE A LIST OF MUSICIANS... RANDY PLAYED SEVERAL "BATTLE OF THE BANDS" HERE IN SOUTHEAST TEXAS...HE HAS WROTE SOME OF HIS OWN TUNES...BUT LISTENING TO HIM, YOU HAVE TO BELEIVE HIS ANSWER, WAS TO BE THE BEST, YOU HAVE TO BE ABLE TO PLAY THEM ALL...HIS ONLY COMPITITION IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY HAS ALWAYS BEEN TO STRIVE TO BE JUST LIKE THE ALBUM...RANDY, FRED N DAVID HAVE PLAYED TOGETHER FOR OVER 20 YEARS, RANDY N DAVO KNOW WHAT EACH OTHER IS GONNA DO BEFORE THE OTHER GETS A CHANCE TO PLAY THE SECOND NOTE! THEY SIMPLY ROCK TOGETHER. DAVID IS THE MOST AWESOME BASSIST IN SOUTHEAST TEXAS. WHEN HE WAS JUST LEARNING, HE'D WATCH THROUGH RANDY'S WINDOWS WHILE RANDY WAS PRACTICING...THE REST BECAME HISTORY!FRED ANTHONY NEPVEUX PASSED AWAY PEACEFULLY AND IS NOW DRUMMING IN HEAVEN. ITS BEEN A TOUGH YEAR WITHOUT HIM AND WE THINK ABOUT HIM EVERY GIG. ITS BEEN HARD ON DEANO TO LEARN WHAT FREDDIE DID NATURALLY FOR 38 YEARS
