LOL. Seriously?

Yes, seriously. Also in the Good Feelin' was Steve Scarfina who was booted out of REO Speedwagon by Irving Azoff shortly before they cut their first album. I always detested that band. Steve went on to found an obscure prog rock group called Pavlov's Dog who were really big in Japan for about a year.

As for the rest of the Good Feelin' members, the drummer, the organ player and myself were no-talent wankers who just wanted to smash things up like the Who. We got a fair amount of gigs for a high school garage band.

After Mike McDonald left the Good Feelin' the new singer was some freak with a Prince Valiant haircut who wore velvet capes and juggled flaming tamborines while he sang. He called himself Sir Stephen and it was too bad he couldn't sing on key.
