Who Is Trish (Salad)? What do you do in Fired Up?  Lead vocals, book gigs & play a mean tambourineWhat do you like to do on stage?It's much more an issue of off stage! I don't spend a lot of time on stage! I enjoy singing, but even more enjoyable is trying to keep on top of what the two lunatics I am up there are doing!! Brad is so far reserved...and I am assuming he will be right in the grove soon, and then I will have to watch out for three of them!! They get me good most of the time always some smart ass comment coming from some section of the stage! hahaha. Most memorable moment on stage  Without a doubt would be LCO Casino....I had a big table of ladies who felt compelled to buy me a shot to do with them...so every time I went to the table *POOF*, a shot...not just one but one of everything they were having! Needless to say I was blasted...which is something I don't like doing when I sing! But none the less there I was lying behind the drummer singing the ever popular..."Anyway you want it".....and ended up with a massive hangover in the am!! Funny thing was....the strap to my shirt had snapped the night before on stage....very fun weekend!!What hobbies Bet you couldn't guess the most important hobby...hahaha, yep singing! Anything and everything about music! I also enjoy painting. I enjoy a wide variety of things...as long as it doesn't involve going outside in the cold! I enjoy spending time with my daughter, she keeps me busy at 17! I also have two older boys that help me in the aging processes...but ya gotta love 'em right? I have come to that point in my life where I can enjoy many more adventures! My children are now grown and I have a new found independence! I Have a very tight group of friends (much thanks to my two Best Friends Pea & Kara, they have gotten me through the past 15 years), that have stood beside me and enjoyed the music and all that it has brought me! Living in the music, raising my children and enjoying my full time job, and this great hobby job, make life a joy! I  enjoy hangin out with Skittles & Nibbles, my Seal Pointe and Burma Siamese Fur Bisuits! I find myself driving for relaxation....get in my 02' Mustang, and a road trip to AZ is always a good idea... Put the top down and just drive!! I am, as most know me, High Octane and as Wicked as they come, but I am always true to my love of music, and much repect to all those who pursue it!!  Age? How old do you think?? Hahaha .......as they say old enough to know better, but young enough to do it anyway!!   Today’s Comment As time has moved on I found a great family in the three Men who I share the Stage with almost every weekend! It is a very difficult thing at times, to step on stage and just turn off life, and turn on the show! But as I have found there isn't anything that has the same effect, than climbing on the stage and being a part of this Band! It is with sincere appreciation to the people who continue to enjoy our music, our antics, sometimes our ability to be a bit out of control! And for me, It is one of the biggest honors ever bestowed on me! With Brad now settled in...things couldn't be better! I have laughed until I cried or almost wet my pants!! I have broken toes, broken hearts, and a few glasses...and still the hilarity continues! If it isn't mustard in my band bag, it's a Bandana strategically placed somewhere it shouldn't be, or a steak knife bracing the stage.... it's always something that just keeps me coming back..... oh yeah it's gotta be those shirtless boys I play with every weekend haha! I do know with out a doubt that I will enjoy this Band, it's members, and the Many Fans who continue following us into the future! A Special Thank You to Tim Cockburn from the Jury, you are a great musician and a great friend!! Thank you Jody & Nancy! Thanks to Big Al, Rob and B-Rad for the most gratifying Job!!   Trish
