Happy Birthday, Jerome Fontamillas
Today is June 20th, and sources say that not very many years ago on this day, Jerome was born. So, Romey, this post is for you.

I'd be hard-pressed to find someone who would disagree with me when I say that you are one quality fellow. We know that you do about 8 different things at a time while on stage, but you also set a good example off-stage by being a laid-back, genuinely nice guy who loves his job, loves people, and is super easy to talk to. Your musical additions to the band keep things interesting and keep listeners on their toes, and your personality always adds some fun-loving humor to situations. Thanks for all you do, Romey, and (as cliche as it sounds), thanks for just being you. In the words of Chad,

"Jerome is the elder statesman of the group. He brings a wealth of experience, a broad vocaublary, a broad musical vocabulary, an up-to-the-minute finger on the pulse of technology - just that element of electronic mayhem. He's a "fountain of sound" -- that's how we refer to him in the band. He's always working on how to make these songs come alive, both in the studio and live. Personally, Jerome is the most encouraging and uplifting seasoned veteran in a band that i've ever met. For someone who's been on tour since he was 18, for as long as he has, he's absolutely unjaded, motivated, encouraging and absolutely a joy to be around."

No matter how "seasoned" you are, we're glad that you keep rockin' hard,


and that you stay classy



Happy Birthday, Romey!
