THE TEACHERZ: Steve The first thing about Teacher'z Pet that grabs you is Steve's amazing range (this guy has some pipes!) as he croons to the ladies on a slow tune and then immediately turns around and hits the Robert Plant, David Lee Roth, or Vince Neil-type high notes. Just wait 'til you hear his inflection of "Dream On" by Aerosmith.

He earns continuing education credit by putting it to good use at every show. Paul Paul Waters pounds the skins, adds some tight harmony, and gives Steve a break on lead vocals regularly. He takes the lead on crowd favorites including "Keep Your Hands to Yourself, and "What I Like About You. He puts the fans on the dance floor. Paul has the God-given talent that every drummer wants, and many study years to attain, but very few ever really achieve it. Paul seemed to come from the womb with a rock-solid, steady pulse. Fans often equate his style with Zeppelin,s drummer, the late John Bonham. Mike Mike brings the crowd to their knees every time with guitar solos on his favorite axes. You can also catch him adding to the songs he plays with his own back-up vocal stylings. Thanks to modern wireless technology, you'll frequently find him grinding a solo out among the audience. This guy loves the fans and they love him right back! Sam You may recognize the bassist for Teacher'z Pet as a Kansas City rock icon. He is none other than Sam Lee, the bassist who toured with the local band Rampage from 1979-1990. Sam rounds out the tight harmony for the quartet, but just wait till you hear him take the lead on "Surrender. The radio version will never sound the same again. Sam is wireless as well, so look for him adding his thumping bassline while he,s out among the crowd. Watch out for flying picks, though!
