Howard 'Cookie Man' Gendrau:
Drums and Vocals
A native of New Jersey, Howard has fully adopted the Florida culture, including the refusal to cut his hair even though he is now a grandfather. To understand how Howard gets into his drumming, think Animal from the muppets. He's even been known, mid-song, to run 'round the front of his drum set and beat that cymbal to a pulp, returning to the chair to deliver a power finale.
Howard is also the driving force behind the internationally renowned band "Intentionally Left Blank".
Steve 'Custard King' Loveridge:
Guitar and Vocals
Originally from the UK, Steve's accent lends that touch of originality to the vocals in the 'Crew's covers of Pink Floyd, Clapton, The Who, Beatles and The Semisonics. But Steve loves the American Blues, so helps out on those too.
Lightnin'Lane Longley:
Guitar and Vocals
Lane has been a 'Crew member since November 2004 and is a comfortable fit with the group as a long time player with similar taste in music to the 'Crew's repertoir. He got his first guitar in 1968, and still has it. Old guitars and tube amps are his favorites, with a special love for his Gretsch 6120. Lane has played in numerous bands since high school and college and brings his "Stray Cat" swing style to the band. Lane obviously enjoys playin' the blues and foot stompin' rock'n roll.
Rick Wagner:
Bass Guitar and Vocals
Rick joined the 'Crew in 2007 after having jammed with us at Howard's New Year's Eve parties. Rick is fully qualified to sing and play the blues after a recent fight with cancer from which he is now fully recovered. Rock on Rick!
