Broward Palm Beach New Times - Nick Wheeler Interview Quote

Is there a particular band that you followed as a kid or that influenced you with your music?

"Def Leppard. I met them and interviewed them; it didn't involve the internet. It was for Metal Edge Magazine. This is the only instance a band like mine would end up in a magazine like that [laughs]. It's always a pleasure when you meet an idol and they're really nice people. They are all really nice dudes. It would've been heartbreaking if they weren't."
