In 2011, founding guitarist Steve Lynch and bassist Randy Rand decided to meet up at the NAMM show in Anaheim. They rekindled their friendship first, opening up the lines of communication and bonding more than ever before. Almost two years after that encounter, Rand contacted drummer Keni Richards on Facebook, attending the skinsman’s art gallery. With the relationship rebuilt, they made a collective decision to jam again. However, there was just one missing link.
“We approached our original singer Steve Plunkett about a reunion,” recalls Lynch. “Unfortunately, he didn’t have the time to join the band again due to how busy his business is. He did give us his blessing to move forward though, and that was important. There are so many eighties bands out there touring and having fun with it. We were one of the few that hadn’t been out there. We missed our fans. This is for them.”
