TROY YOUNG
Troy Young started his drumming career as a guitar player when he was 11 years old. He would jam to the likes of AC/DC, Van Halen and Journey,(he didn't have much to work with in the 80's), until he got together with bass player Donny Lemmon, now known as Don "Digler". He and Don soon realized his talents did not lie with strings but with a pair sticks. "One day Troy picked up a pair of logs from the back yard and proceeded to beat the shit out of me for playing too much Journey" Don explains. Amazingly enough Troy's perfect clocklike timing caught Don by surprise and soon Troy sold his guitar for a shitty set of drums. 19 years later Troy and Don are still jamming together with Mark Stein and Billy Bartell in the kick ass band of Jack the Hotrod. Visit their website at www.jackthehotrod.com to hear the thunder and clockwork of Troy Young and edgy, southern rock sound of the band simply known as (Asian voice) JACKA THE HOTA ROOD. You can contact Troy at tyoung1969@aol.com.
