FALL 1999
Brian St. Clair. After Joe's departure over the summer, the idea is to move forward as quickly as possible. Since Scott had already toured with Triple Fast Action for six months, Brian St. Clair is the obvious choice but after Triple Fast Action broke up, Brian quit drumming and went to work for Liz Phair and Cheap Trick. A fairly intensive audition process is initiated. Kelly from Failure is approached. So is Davey from Stanford Prison Experiment. But nothing seems to be clicking. Herb and Wes convince Scott to give Brian a call. He does, and surprisingly, Brian says he'll come in for an audition. After playing only one song, Cool Magnet, the job is Brian's if he wants it. He calls Cheap Trick on the spot to let them know he'll be quitting. Practicing and writing starts immediately (our first song is Son Of Cha!) and we're playing shows with Brian by September. His first gig is in Iowa City and Hello Everyone is the first song of the set.
