well if you don't want me to touch them than put them away, geesh...

Snedeker enjoys cooking and has a Fear of Public Vomiting.

Snedeker began playing drums at the age of 8. He was in an Elvis cover band at age 14 and, in addition to playing in many local bands, he put himself through college by playing in a wedding band, staying with them for 12 years and playing "Brown-Eyed Girl" 500-600 times.

Kirk grew up in the small state of CT, just adjacent to the smaller state of RI, which itself is slightly north and to the left of the Caspian Sea. He has always had a natural affinity for cats and the word "dongle".

Kirk was raised by very artistic parents (his mother Sheri (sherisnedeker.com) is a fine artist and his father a fine jinglewriter/copywriter/master inventor. So it was only natural that he aspire to become an accountant. However, after purchasing the Kiss "Alive" record at the tender age of 8, he thought drumming might be a better alternative and took to it. Despite this fact, he still manages to count to 10 with surprisingly little effort.

Kirk's illustrious career spanned various CT acts including Supercollider and a band called Astrid Henry. He is a 'graduate' of the Percussion Institute of Technology and dislikes L.A. and Scientologists. After moving to Chicago in March 2006, Kirk vowed to find a band to love. He met Christy and Yvonne through craigslist.com and his dream came true - the one with the badger and the towtruck - yeah, weird.
