Jeff Motsco - Guitar/Vocals

Started playing guitar at age 10. Philosophy on choosing music based on great songs that every other band isn't playing (& the thing Steve says about hot chicks). Most notably played a festival with the Marshall Tucker Band, and opened for Gary US Bonds (ask your folks, they know him).

Steve Haddad - Vocals/Guitar
Singer and songwriter. Past bands include The Other Extreme, Cool Rockers, and cats on fire. There was also that brief stint in high school madrigals... Philosophy on choosing music based on songs that hot girls really dig.



Jerome Lintz
Percussion
What can we say? We met him on the Internet. He hasn't thrown anyone out of a moving vehicle yet so I guess we did pretty good.


Spencer Greer
Bass
He catches on quick, but being a friend of Jerome's we're afraid he's in favor of those long union breaks.

BAND RULES
It has come to our attention that not everyone is familiar with certain rules of etiquette that should be followed when attending one of our events. Not everyone has been exposed to being in a band nor has our society made available “Fan Finishing School.” So, we’ve taken it upon ourselves to help enlighten you for not only while attending a captain jack show, but for shows of our brethren in the industry as well. Below are some of those rules..(excerpts if you will) …

Rule #14) At no point in time during the show should it be appropriate to request the Lynyrd Skynyrd song "FREE BIRD!"

Rule #35) When buying shots for the band the number of shots purchased for the band should EQUAL the number of members in the band. At NO point should a shot be purchased for one band member.

Rule #42) At some point during the night one female attendee must pretend that we're an 80's hair band and flash accordingly.

Rule #47) Blackberry Brandy should be on hand as well as Captain Morgan's and Jack Daniels and their respective mixers -- Pepsi is unacceptable.

Rule #52) Any attendee who has been drinking should NEVER drive. AND, female attendees who have had excessive amounts of alcohol should take advantage of the captain jack "ride for a ride program."

Rule #74) Using the band's equipment as a coaster for your drink is not a good idea. Less expensive coasters that aren't hooked up to electricity are available at the bar.

Rule #75) At catered events the band appreciates someone putting together a plate for us during our break.

Rule #76) Serve Caprese Salad.

Rule #92) Although clapping is not required after every song, an occasional clap is welcomed.

Rule #94) "Me & Bobby McGee" should never be played out of respect for the late, great Janis Joplin. Besides....we hate that f@#$ing song.

Rule #97) We understand that at certain events perhaps you'd like to make an announcement or toast, etc. We welcome you to do so with proper warning (especially when you're paying us), but please observe the "no hands" rule with the microphone. The microphone stand is sober and does a fine job elevating the microphone to a comfortable speaking height.

Rule #105) Talking to the band in the middle of songs is not usually recommended as we can't hear you. We're nodding to be polite.

Rule #106) Sometimes the band may be in between where you are (Point "A") and where you're going (Point "B"), such as the bathroom, bar, etc... We try our best to make obvious which path from "A" to "B" we'd like you not to take -- such as placing equipment and wires in your way. Please take the path of least resistance.

Rule #237) NEW RULE - We respect the fact that you're a fellow musician, but please don't ask us to sing a song because we have yet to figure out how to tell you "no" without being mean about it. (THIS RULE DOES NOT APPLY TO HOT CHICKS - and sometimes party patrons...if you're the one paying us we tend to be more flexible on the rules)
