VIDEO: Poor as Fred performs their original song "Rebecca's Song."

AGE: 21

HOMETOWN: Augusta

MEMBER OF: Poor as Fred, 2003-present

GUITAR: Pictured with his Kona semi-acoustic

FAVORITE CONCERT: Third Eye Blind, Our Lady Peace and Eve 6 at Fort Gordon, 1998. "It was a fun show, really because everybody was just going crazy. Everybody was having a good time, and that's the kind of environment you always want to see at a good concert."

FAVORITE FOOD: Burger King's Quad Stacker

FAVORITE SHOW: Poor as Fred and Team Lift at the Soul Bar, 2007. "I ended up drinking a little bit too much before the show. ... I was in the bathroom throwing up in the toilet. Sean (Anderson) and Justin (Pilcher) come in there and got me, and Sean is trying to help me up to the stage. And when I get up, my guitar is all tuned; and I just kind of took the (sunglasses) off, you know, and threw the cigarette out and went to town and played the show, and it was great."

FAVORITE TV SHOW: Squidbillies

WORST SHOW: Bloodfest at 1102 Downtown Bar & Grill, 2007.

PRE-SHOW RITUAL: If we had anything like a pre-show ritual, it would probably deal with a lot of alcohol. ... Every show we play, somebody's probably been drinking."

HANDPICKED CONCERT LINEUP: Kool Keith, Plastic World; Against Me!, Burn; Red Hot Chili Peppers, Fire (Jimi Hendrix cover); Suicide Machines, New Girl; Street Light Manifesto, Everything Goes Numb
