Allright, so I have to write a bio :) Here's a little about me, and life so
far. My love of live music had me touring at a very young age. Life used to
be all about, selling clouthes and grilled cheese. Nothing really mattered,
just needed enough money for tickets and gas to get to the next show. It was
great, actually it was heaven. But, Penni is right when she says we all have
to grow up. I grew up real fast, pregnant at 17 and a mommy by 18. My
little MaMa was exposed to great music since the womb. I continued touring
untill weeks before she was born. Lets say, she's been to her share of Phish
and Ekoostik Hookah shows. After she was born, I lived with my boyfriend and
our baby in my in-laws basement. I had to get a "real" job. Eventually, we
made it to an apartment, and now we rent a house. We were married in 2002.
Brooke is now 6 years old and just as stubborn as her red-headed mommy. She
loves to draw, drum, get into trouble :). The past few years have been
really hard. I've been workig as a Pastry Chef at a couple local country
clubs. Anyone who has ever worked in the food service industry, knows how
much it sucks. As a manager of my own little pastry team, all responsibility
feel on me. I worked 80+ hour work weeks, payed close to $500 a week in
daycare while I was working, worked every holiday, never saw my family, and
was pretty bitter and miserable about it. My only release in life is music,
and I barely saw any shows anymore. Meeting Penni last year, and losing that
horrible job in January, was the best thing that could ever happen to me. I
feel like I've missed out on the past soo many years of Brooke's life,
having to miss her little Kindergarten plays, and easter egg hunts. I also
feel like this was fated to happen. I have a few months to try and make this
work for us. With your support, I hope I won't have to go back to that never
ending hole I was digging. We look forward to meeting you all out on the
road this summer. I am determined that together we can all be happy and
succesfull.

Much Love to all of you!,
Kelly Jo and Brook
