Joe “Mighty Joe” Adcock (Drums, Vocals)<\/strong><\/h3>

Hails from Saint Joseph, Michigan; transplanted to Kissimmee, FL in 1967.\u00a0<\/p>

Coming in at 6’4″, sometimes playing with “King Kong”\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0drumsticks (the size of baseball bats), along with being the youngest at the time, the band gave him the moniker\u00a0“Mighty Young Joe”. <\/i>Joe always considered not to be compared to a giant primate. With the addition of the group’s bassist, Scott Lucas…(who is mere moments younger than Joe) “Young” was officially dropped from his\u00a0<\/i>moniker.<\/p>

FACTOID:
<\/b>When Joe’s not giving he drives 18 wheelers with 52′ trailers full of ice cream<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
