Quotes:
"My first name's Michael but everybody has a brother, a dad and five best friends with that name so inevitably my friends got too annoyed with trying to distinguish, so they all just started calling me Fitz or Fitzy and that just stuck over the years."
-Michael Fitzpatrick

"Well you know, usually you gotta call a gazillion people and ask so many questions; Do you get along with them?, Do they have the skill? This was literally 5 phone calls and the band was there. We did one rehearsal, and we could have done a show that night. We didn't have enough songs yet, bu t I am a big believer in just booking a show and then everyone's forced to get it together, so we booked a show 2 weeks later and we've just been going non-stop ever since."
-Michael Fitzpatrick
