My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 9/24/2007
Band Website: nitestrike.net
Band Members: Art Berry ,Guitar , Keyboards , Vocals .Born in VT, raised in Maine. First played at 6 1/2 years old at Portland Civic Auditorium.Classical guitar at Hartt School of Music at 12. Electric guitar and keys at 15 and gigging ever since. Lives on a lake in Plymouth CT. Plays Ibanez JEMS and Kurzweil keys. (BASS)Pete PACMAN Contrastano born in Danbury Ct. Came to Bristol Ct. at 10. Started playing guitar at 12 . early influences were the Beatles , Led Zep , and Jimmi Hendrix . played first gig at 14 , at the local church fair . Played guitar in popular local band TRANSFUSION for a few years . Went to bass guitar in the mid 80's and has been gigging , meeting interesting people , and having fun ever since. I use a Schecter Bass guitar ,Gallien Krueger Head and a Acoustic bass 2x15 Cab. (Drums) Vic Mad Dog Capirchio , born and raised in Bristol Ct. Vic has been performing in clubs in Mass , Ct. , and RI for thirty years . Vic plays on a Yammaha set with Zildjian cymbals . In the early 80's Vic played with Jimmi Bell , did shows at both Agora Ballroom's , West Hartford and New Haven . Vic was also the drummer for the Blizzard of Ozz. His favorite drummers are Mitch Michell, John Bonham , and Ian Paice. John Carey , Vocals and Harmonica Influenced by his uncle's band "yesterday's children" at age 12, music was an everyday part of John's life. Listening to records, radio, and watching television, John became more interested in music and the prospect of some day being part of the music world, which did not take long. By using a light bulb as his first microphone, He began to mimic the lyrics of such bands as the Beatles, Rolling Stones and the Monkees. Singing in grammer school and soon forming his own band in his garage, he made his first puplic appearance at age 15 and continued being in bands to this day. In the thirty plus years of being involved in bands, I would say there is nothing compared to being part of this band "Nitestrike" and like a happy marriage I feel we will stay together as a band until death do us part. Now that's the way it should be and it's a good feeling.CINDY S.-VOCALS, PERCUSSIONYOU PROBABLY KNOW HER ALREADY...CINDY HAS PERFORMED ON THE LOCAL BAND SCENE AND COMES TO YOU FROM THE BANDS FREEFALL AND PLASTICA. BORN AND RAISED IN CT., CINDY ALWAYS HAD HOPES OF SINGING IN A BAND. AS A YOUNG GIRL, SHE WOULD WATCH HER DAD'S BAND PRACTICE AND ALWAYS TRY TO STEAL THE MIKE. WELL, THE BAND DREAM FINALLY CAME TRUE OVER THREE YEARS AGO AND SHE'S BEEN AT IT EVER SINCE. NOW, CINDY JOINS FORCES WITH THE AMAZING NITESTRIKE...AND WE'RE HERE TO ROCK YOUR WORLD!!!
