… Hiding amongst the Fort Worth Tx music scene, AMC (formerly known as "Impulse") started out playing covers in local clubs when they weren't even old enough to get in without their very supportive parents David & Michele coming along. Eventually hitting the road, AMC played throughout the U.S (including a crazy one-night-stand in Mozambique) before returning to Fort Worth for an extended "break" and song-writing binge. AMC consists of 3 brothers as follows (ascending in order of beauty and talent): The drummer--Chris is one of tens-of-thousands of drummers in the world. Oh ok, there's more to him than just that... Possessing unique and tasteful songwriting capabilities, a soulful voice, a passion for road rage and playing harmonica in the bathroom...he also records many of AMC's bass tracks. Chris has been known to stumble around aimlessly in his favorite city of New Orleans at all hours of the night..If you see him there, please knock him upside the head. The guitarist--Dave is not a virtuoso or a guitar prodigy (nor does he aspire to be)...he is rather the "Rick Nielsen" of this generation, who can play any of his 20+ guitars while skydiving naked. His love for music, guitar collecting and tinkering is what keeps him from going insane and killing the drummer and the "idiot" described below. A professional sound engineer on the side, he has worked with artists such as Dick Dale, Johnny Cash, LeAnn Rhimes and Ted Nugent, just to name a few. During the AMC "break" Dave has bonded with a small flock of bad-tempered parrots and fantasizes about women wearing nothing but "smiley-face" masks. The idiot (eel)--the youngest of the 3 brothers, the idiot finds time to write songs, sing and change diapers (not just his own) all in a day's work. The idiot is not hurt by the fact that he is referred to as an idiot, due to his idiotic nature. Actually, the more the idiot is referred to as an idiot, the stonger and more useless the idiot becomes. Think of it as an "idiotic snowball effect". Disclaimer: Beware of too much socializing with the idiot or you too will be at risk of becoming an idiot (or even worse, you may find yourself with an insatiable desire to kill the idiot!)
