Band Members: Vigo Wan: Vocals.
He obviously has a brain, but it is a mystery how it operates or if he even uses it at times. As the lead singer and youngest member of the PSYCHOS he is not more than the band whore, who has to bend for the band to consider his songs and at the end they are always reject! For the fans he also acts like a scrubber selling his body in an exhibitionistic way for a few CD sales after each show. Some one should tell him that women don’t really care for his exhibition. During the early era of the band, he worked in customer service for an airline – nerved each customer with the question “Do you know my voice?†VOICE that is the only time he activates his brain cells. Today he owns his own airplane which he constructed and financed himself. The PAPER airplane stands in a glass cupboard in his living room. We can’t wait until brains could be transplanted!!
Carlito: Drums.
…..AKA, Andy; AKA, Andigo; AKA, Andy again. Secret boss of the band – (so he believes, it doesn’t hurt to dream!) After two years in the band the other three band members recognized that there was somebody in the background drumming and drinking beer. He never applied for the job; he just sat there one day (I think he did it for the beer), armed with two sticks, a snare drum, a cymbal and an astounding real-looking John-Bonham-latex-mask. Thanks to Carlito The PSYCHOS can never play in the streets for a few dollars because of his belly of prosperity; give me a break, who in this world would believe the band is broke with that big rich man’s belly (stop the beer dude). Besides his work as a drummer he recently started his own entertainment agency, where you can rent him as the perfect looking Frank-Sinatra-double for your own private birthday party. Amazingly, he lets Vigo do the marketing. One has to wonder where the belly fits in the Sinatra double part???. One more brain please!!
Bucho: Bass.
He truly believes he is the head of the band. He has the most ideas, which are always rejected, because they are too good to be true. He is always mixing his bass in the background; he claims to do that to protect the band from his gifted sounds, so he says. Working for four years in a chocolate factory he was lucky to find a wife and make a family. He dreamed of a solid job while cleaning offices and at times wrapping bar of chocolates in nice colorful paper. One day by a lucky accident when he was yelling at a co-worker, who leaned out of the window of the fourth floor, he screamed from down the street: “I want a job – give me anythingâ€. The friend replied: “keep the chase!†And of course because Bucho`s ears are not the best, he decided to follow his coworker’s advice and “play the bassâ€. One more brain please!!
Adriano Cox: Guitar.
The top dog of the band, (that happens when you are so tall). He has the most ideas which have always been adopted by the band, not because they are good, but because he has the most money. We lovingly call him “granny†because of his age. When he wears his legendary headband we sometimes call him “head banded grannyâ€. He writes important statements on that headband like “Fuck the rulesâ€, "Fuck the state", "Fuck the police" or "Fuck, I forgot to turn off coffee-machineâ€. We would like to say “Fuck your head band†Sometimes he gets mixed up with a guitar-neck by the roadies, with a body all bones and very little meat, fans always wanting to carry him out through the multitude, but he refuses due to the fear of some one taking his head band. One more brain please!!
The moral of the story....The PSYCHOS earned every letter of their name!!!
