Who was the band?
They were called The One Day. They weren’t signed. They were sort of this melodic, REM-esque, Eagles-type, pop-rock band. I just thought that they were great, and just figured out how to manage them. They started getting some label interest, and they did a demo deal with BMG. Then the band just kind of disintegrated. That band then formed into another band called the Fishermen. The Fisherman were probably the first band I ever got signed. They did a deal with Elektra Records. The next band after that was a band called Momma Stud, who were on Virgin. That became the time when I had to decide whether I was going to continue doing all of this other stuff or just be a manager. I didn’t have time to do everything else. That was when it became official.
