In 1995, I went on my first real tour: from San Jose to Portland and Seattle. The band was called Magpie; we were a folk band that played in the punk scene. I sang and played acoustic guitar, and my good friends Craig Crisler and John Gerken played drums and bass, respectively. We sounded like the Violent Femmes covering the Misfits. I was nineteen.
