Band Name Origins:

  • taken from guitarist Peter Klett (a family friend) when the band played local gigs. they hauled a lot of equipment, and were using drummer Scott Mercado's uncles van for the time being. they all pitched in and bought a 1987 ford f-150 XL longbed, 2 tone brown/tan with a 4.9 L motor. girlfriend of singer Kevin Martin was kind of a hippy, and she lit a candle inside the glovebox, somehow the candle fell over and melted the dash. martin yelled at her and said "its a glovebox! not a candlebox! look what you did! and the rest is history....
