Name of Artist/Band? (list all members & instruments they play)
The Guilty Pleasures - We are the world's most irresponsible and implosive band, fearlessly covering music to get busy to from 1960 to 2010. We consist of five born-again-virgins, Mike Deluca (vocals) Tambourine, Dave Kenin (Guitar), Jay Gridley ( Bass), Pete Filonovich (Guitar), and Rich Kjar (Drums). We also have a sound guy/felon/(gl)ass-eater named Bjorn.

When did you form your Band / Production?
It was the summer of 2007, "We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold"

How did you come up with your 'name'?
It was a throw back to when I was 12 years old, and I locked the door and took longer than usual in the bathroom
