A native New Yorker who later moved to California, we have drummer Karlos to thank for the name of the band, who were originally going to be called The Imbeciles.

Karlos hit upon the idea of calling the band after a shirt that was in vogue during the Sixties.

It has been said that his drumming was sloppy, speeding up and slowing down, and during his latter days in the band the intention was to use Karlos for live shows and Chuck for studio work.

Karlos got sick with heart problems, recovered and might now be back living in in New York.
