They played at clubs around the area for some time but his sister got a little older and so did his brother and they both eventually left home. His brother and sister ended up not intrested in playing in clubs anymoore but they never stoped playing music. His sister did get a chance ( before she left home ) to attend HSPVA ( High School for Performing and Visual Arts ).
