I first met Gene back in 1982 when he was in a band called Martus. Sim of Undercover was also in that group as well. If my memory is correct I believe Gene was on keys. Anyway, it was this outdoor gig and both Martus and us (Altar Boys) [...]

By Steve Ruff

1) When/how did you first meet Gene?
Since I wasn’t living in Southern California when I first heard of Adam Again, I “met” Gene as a fan. In early 1992, I was playing with Farewell to Juliet. Our thing was to only play original material, or covers from stuff we loved in the Christian alternative music [...]
