Marc: and I'm the drummer. (Laughing as they joke and play.)

MJ's Q2: How did you get your band's name?

Steve: The band's name is from a few things that all seemed to point to the name. 1) Bill was 50 at the time, a young 50. 2) He drives a 5.0 Mustang and 3) It's usually the collective blood alcohol level of the band at a gig!
