He is...in fact I used to live in the apartment complex he used to by his drugs from. The Brownstone apartment complex. Fun times.

Haha. Nice!

Speaking of musicians from there, are you familiar with Mike Kelsey? I saw him play a couple times back when I lived in Chicago and was pretty impressed. If he's still around there and you've never seen him he's worth checking out, he's an absolutely amazing guitarist.

I agree...I saw him my freshman year of college right around the time he released November. It surprises me every time I run across a new musician from Lafayette that is good...besides the college town part of it, it is kind of a barren wasteland and the only real scene here is either emo or death metal. And not good death metal, either.

Heh. Yeah, it seemed like a nice college town the couple times I visited it but certainly surrounded by a whole lot of nothing. And I remember being shocked at how the whole downtown seemed to close down in the afternoon.

weren't Axl and Shannon Hoon cousins? or was that just a big urban legend? might have to do with Hoon having done guest vocals on 'Don't Cry'.

I always heard that they were cousins as well but I suppose some newbie on here, will come along to trash that notion as well.

I have no idea...this is actually the first time I heard this.

First i have heard of it too, i gotta say!

**Janszoon** · 03-24-2010, 10:17 PM

I've never heard that they were cousins, just friends.

I would lean on the friends theory, since they worked together before and such...
