I may as well share my story when I met SBach...seems like the place........
I met SBach back when they recorded their 2
nd Album
Slave to the Grind in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. They stayed at these Apts near my job. At the time I worked at Hooters…One night SBach & the Drummer, RAffuso were "lookin’ 4 booze, chicks, & a good time" was what SBach said…Meanwhile, at Hooters, the Boss asked me 4 a favor & close down the place, count beers & tshirts (inventory in the am) so he can go home & get some sleep…I agreed, so he gave me the keys…20 mins. L8r, SBach & RAffuso walked in the door & the girls noticed I recognized them & called me 2 the back. While they messed w/ their hair/makeup, I gave them the 411..the plan was “no matter what, everybody goes”…Me, I had 2 B responsible…the girls were crazy over the guys that no one did closing work but me & the other responsible girl…we decided 2 do “last call” early 2 get them out so we can leave…She came back & said, “He wants U 2 bring the pitcher 2 him” out of curiosity, I did…then, SBach said some sick offensive things & I went off on him, but in reality, he probably have said those things 2 other girls.........after I went off on him, he’s laughing cuz he finds it all cute & said, “U know Doll from where I stand, Ur the only one complaining” I look at RAffuso & he nods in agreement & the girls weren’t any help like one of the girls whispered 2 me, “U should do it” who needs friends when U have coworkers pimping U out…I told SBach, “I have 2 B responsible…I have 2 count tshirts” “I have tshirts back at my apt. How many U need?” he said. It went on 4 a bit & leaving, he told me he would put my name at the guard station if I wanted 2 come by l8r & B irresponsible w/ him…
I went back 2 work, & while they were leaving, RAffuso came up 2 me lookin’ 4 smoke, so me & the other responsible girl, met the drummer at this bar across the street…He was cool, we talked about music, of course & if he was feelin’ the change in music cuz even 4 me, at that time, I was phasing out of the whole Metal thing & transitioning into Goth...in heavy rotation, I had the Cure, Depeche Mode, REM...In the 80’s I was more or less a casual listener but I discovered these underground bars that played that genre music & that was the Segway to Janes’ Addiction, Nine Inch Nails, Chili Peppers & eventually the 90’s music…
