When New Jersey Stage heard
about the reunion show, we con-
tacted Steve Conte to get his
take on the band’s history and to
see if the reunion might last lon-
ger than one night.
How did the idea for a reunion
show come about?
Well, here’s the timeline. The
band got together in 1988.
We recorded the first album in
1989 and it came out in 1990.
By 1991 we did a second album
and by 1992 we left the label.
A year later we all started our
own bands. My brother and I
started Crown Jewels and Kyf
did his solo thing. We didn’t
play together for years. But we
did play one more show some-
time in the late 90s in Baltimore.
Kyf is from down there and he’s
played the area for years with
the band The Ravyns. They had
a song (“Raised on the Radio”)
on the soundtrack of Fast Times
at Ridgemont High and a couple
of regional hits in the Baltimore/
Delaware are, so he’s got club
