there is a difference, there is a constant feeling of being able to fall back on something. for all the words that are said, and for me, trying to be someone iportant, with the right words and the best attitude, the coolest styles and the right skills. i know my faults, i know them all too well, but these guys turn around my life. yeah, having something to fall back on is important to me, to who i am, and to what motivates me. this isn't just a band, it's a soal shaping, and whether the rest know it or now, i'm thankful. -- mike toretta / 1996
