About Me

Alicia- Lishie Comiskey, or Lishie O'Ghouls, (she doesn't care what ya call her, so long as you call!) enjoys a good pint of Guinness, a good reel or set dance, learning how to swear in other languages.--------Jay- Warnabilly tells the best jokes during practice, always has a lager to spare, and tries unsucessfully to injure the other members with broken pieces of drumstick that just happen to "fly" from his hands.-------- Wayne- the train in vain in spain with a cane insane in the membrane is the is the newest Comiskey, and until he cut his mullet, he has the longest hair, too. Ladies, beware, for this charming man knows how to work a bass guitar.--------Doogie- the only member of the band who can break a guitar string by looking at it. The band was born when Lishie walked into the bar where he was employed. She was there to meet some fellow disgruntled-and-also-recently-laid-off-co-workers of hers. Doogie and Lishie immediately bonded over "the Simpsons", began spewing quotes, and it lead into "what bands do you like?". Doogie mentioned the Clash, the Ramones, Johnny Cash, X, etc. The final test was when they approached the jukebox and Doogie put in a quarter: Do you know this song? sez he. Lish listens...KICK OUT THE JAMS!!! Okay- that's it! We're going to play rock 'n' roll.
