This is living proof that the tambourine is not a useless instrument to include a vivacious female in any band, as he is... less than vivacious. It's hard to be ugly. This is why he joined Mr. Jensen's Beauty Is On The Inside discussion group. They sing songs, talk about their feelings, and help each other get past the fact that they all rate very low in a game of "hot or not". He tends to focus on his music, and became perhaps the most accomplished tambourine player on the planet. His solo album didn't really go all that well, but at least he was in a band that won some awards and had a hit single.
