ST1TCH's Wikipedia Biography: (THIS BIO MAY NOT BE 100% ACCURATE)--------------------------Rick Thomas is or was a part of: *MUSHROOMHEAD(2000-Present) *VentanA(2004-Present) *Dead Even(2002-Present *Canister (1999-2000) *Crossfader(2000-2002) *Downfall Of Society(1998-1999) *Moko(1999-2000)[As DJ Outcast]--------------------------ST1TCH (born Rick Thomas, January 2, 1980) is American sampler for Mushroomhead and Ventana. It has been stated that Thomas was originally called "Stick", due to the fact that he is skinny, but someone mistakenly called him Stitch and the name stuck.Rick met a rap-core band (DOWNFALL OF SOCIETY)at the Mushroomhead Halloween show in 1997. He hooked up with them to make shirts for them since he had experience doing it for Mushroomhead. He started to become friends with the guitar player, Rick Sans, and Sans eventually hinted that they'd like to get a DJ for the band. Thomas wanted to be in the band, but he didn't play any instruments, nor did he really have the money to buy any. So they ended up finding a kid selling 2 cheap Gemini turntables and a mixer for about $100. The two of them split the cost of the gear so they could get a DJ going in the band. Thomas started practicing with the band and was slowly learning how to scratch and add effects to their music. He became a full time member of Downfall of Society around the Spring of 1998. The band was playing a lot of shows, and entered quite a few 'Battle of The Bands' competitions ...winning a few of them. They also opened up for Mushroomhead a few times due to Rick's association with the band. The bassist, Paul, was eventually kicked out of the band around the Spring of 1999 so Thomas got his friend at the time, Dave Harris, to take over. The band was evolving and writing better music, but their drummer was holding them back. They set out to get a new drummer, but since good drummers were hard to find, the band took some time off. During that time, Thomas met the band Canister and really hit it off with them. In mid-1999, Rick was spending a lot of time with Canister and working on music with them. This apparently offended the guys in Downfall of Society, because they ended up replacing him without even letting him know. They changed their name to Sixty Victims, and Rick moved on with Canister.CANISTER/A COLDER YEARAs mentioned in the Downfall of Society bio, Rick met these guys in 1999. They had seen Rick do work in Downfall and they asked him if he'd do a song with them. Since Downfall was on a break, Rick agreed to spend some time to work with Canister. Rick started working with them and really liked their style of music: somewhat of emo hardcore, like a Deftones sound. He became a full-time member in mid-1999 after Downfall replaced him without his knowledge.Rick really enjoyed this band and they were playing out a lot and having fun. It turns out, at the time, that Canister's practice space was next door to Chimaira's practice space. Chimaira had only been together less than a year at this point. They mentioned to Rick that they wanted someone in their band doing samples and turntables like he was doing. After hearing that, Rick just told them that he was too busy with Canister and that they should look elsewhere for someone to work with them. A few months later, Chimaira found Chris Spicuzza to fill the spot.MOKOAround the Fall of '99, Rick met this band Moko from Sandusky, Ohio. They were big fans of Downfall of Society and asked Rick if he would join their band. At the time, Rick was busy with Canister and said he didn't have time to join another band.The next year, after Rick left Canister, he decided to give Moko a try. He went by the name 'DJ Outcast' while with Moko. Their sound was similar to Downfall's, but they had more of a heavier, hardcore edge. Rick performed with the band for a while, but they ended up falling apart. A few months later, Rick was without a band and just minding his own business printing shirts for Mushroomhead. It was then that he was approached by Skinny... who asked him to join Mushroomhead.MushroomheadHe has added touches of his own influence throughout their sound furthering their evolution.During live shows during certain songs him and Dan will water drum.Every April Fools day he pranks all the fans by convincing them that something ridiculous has happened, though a running gag there are still many who fall for it. He has caused many to believe he has left the band and that the band has done something out of line like their own version of Slipknot's third album, Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses) You can see Rick holding the bogus joke version of it in the pic album labeled "ST1TCH"Rick Thomas also added his touch of samples and keyboards to Dead Even's second demo 'Your Nightmare Is Reality'. Rick's schedule does not permit him to work with Dead Even anymore. He also has a side project band called Ventana. He is also married to the astoundingly beautiful and talented Angel, a bassist from from the Ohio based metal band "As Summer Dies" and I DO mean BEAUTIFUL folks.---------------------------------Below are the videos you can see ST1TCH in... .... ..---------------------------------<Myspace Contact Tables
