Bio
What's In A Name? If you're expecting something cute or meaningful in the naming of the group, you may be disappointed. Russell Ferrante relates the following on how the group's name was chosen: "I wish there was a clever rationale, but there really isn't. At the time we were making our demo in hopes of landing a recording contract, we were still the "Robben Ford Band". We had recorded one record with Robben, (primarily instrumental) but his record company was "encouraging" him do do something more pop and vocal oriented. As we also wanted to continue playing instrumental music, we all decided to form a "band within a band" so to speak. At the demo session Jimmy brought in a sheet full of possible names, most just awful. The one that popped out was Yellowjackets as it seemed to connotate something lively, energetic, and something with a "sting". That's really about as deep as it went. Once you choose a name, you're stuck with it so here we are, 16 years later, grown men playing in a band named 'Yellowjackets.'" ...... -

Live a LIFE OF KINDNESS Yellowjackets!
TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT THE POWER OF A TOUCH ...
"Too often we UNDERESTIMATE the power of a TOUCH,
a SMILE, a KIND WORD, a LISTENING EAR, an HONEST
COMPLIMENT, or the SMALLEST ACT OF CARING,
all of which have the potential to TURN A LIFE AROUND."
~ Leo Buscaglia
ONLY A LIFE LIVED FOR OTHERS IS WORTH LIVING!
