When the band started, Dick was the only one in the band who didn't graduate
from Covington Catholic. He graduated from Conner, class of '83. When Tommy
left the band, the Conner graduates had a bigger percentage.
Happily married with 3 wonderful, young kids, Dick
plays music on the side for fun and beer,
although he has been known to do a shot or
two on occasion (aka Yak).
He also spends time running, beating Ric
at basketball, and beating Ric at golf.
Dick also spends (way too much) time being the web master
for the
Doghouse-Rocks.com web site.
He got his nickname on a cold December day in 1982, when he and two friends
were going to a Black Sabbath concert, had parked in Covington, walked half
way across the Suspension Bridge in 3 inches of fresh snow, when he stopped
them and said, "We better go back." "Why?!", they screamed. "I forgot the
tickets.", he replied. "Then go back to the car and get them.", they demanded.
"They're not in the car, they're at home (20 miles away)." But it's nice to
see that Dick hasn't changed, going to Ozzfest 23 years later, he forgot his
ticket to see Black Sabbath again. Thank God for printing tickets from the
Internet!
