"Blood Fever was a group of schoolkids from the Weippe / Pierce, Idaho area. This was my first working band, as in actually getting paid to play. We were all extremely underage when we started. I think I was about 13. The rest of the guys were at least a couple years older so most of our jobs were school dances, community centers, church halls, etc. We stayed pretty busy around the north central Idaho area for awhile. We did some Top-40 stuff, but leaned more toward Hendrix, Cream and Blue Cheer. As the guys started graduating, they all started drifting out of music. Hey, it was a kick in the pants while it lasted!"
