Aaron Joe James - Born in 1988 in San Diego, California. His parents lived a wild lifestyle in California which led to Aaron becoming a bit of a wild child, he was never interested in school apart from music which he describes as his way to forget about his trouble's. He says his parents regularly fought with each other and they often took drugs and he says he struggles to remember them not fighting. He left school at 16 and began his music career by touring constantly from the age of 18 he had many part time jobs in between but none of them lasted longer than 3 months, he was often sacked because of his drug usage and on one occassion he was sacked after having sex with a customer in one of the womens changing rooms. He began touring at the age of 18 and said in an interview "I was living the rock and roll lifestyle better than anyone ever has, I was drinkin and on drugs every night and I was having sex about 3 times a day with different people each time, It was fucking awesome". In the last year he says "I've cut down on the drugs and alcohol a lot, but it just means I get to rock harder and fuck better". He signed a record deal in 2010 and has begun writing songs for Runaways debut album.

Joey Pritchard - Born in 1986 in North Carolina. His parents both worked long hours and he rarely seen his parents during his childhood, he took an interest in music from an early age and began playing drums before reverting to playing bass. He rarely speaks about his childhood because it was a painful time for him he says he used to get bullied at school which led to him dropping out at 16 and moving into a drug house. He moved to San Diego, California at the age of 19 and began his music career with Heroes & Cons. He lives a quieter life than the other members of the band and has a long term girlfriend.

Frank Black - Born in 1987 in Chicago. His parents we're very wealthy and he lived in a bigger house than both Aaron and Joey's childhood homes put together. His parents disowned him when he was 16 after finding out he was on drugs and he's never seen his parents since. He moved to California at 17 to find a band to play in. He met up with Aaron when he was 19 and the pair spent most of their days together getting high and drunk. He's known for his unusual personality and has been arrested 24 times. He once attacked a neighboor because they complained that he was playing his music too loud.

"I'm always gonna have a soft spot for pop-punk so I'm gonna have to listen to these guys when they put out some material. Pretty fucking surprised that these wild bunch are playing pop-punk, you know. The pop-punk lifestyle isn't that wild, at least when I was playing it, and you couldn't fuck your fans 'cause their mostly tweens it would be illegal in most of the northern hemisphere. But I was never one to take drugs, or drink, or sleep with fans. Nonetheless these dudes most be doing some shit right to be playing arenas before they've even released an album, back in the day you had to actual work your ass off to play arenas nowadays you just need a fancy contract. Hey, I had to include at least one douche-y comment in there."

Jimmy Von Noodlenose: Are you guys allegic to the Pacific Northwest? I mean really, Kansas and Nebraska but no Seattle or Portland? For shame!
Horton Q: No I think they're allegic to having a good time, I mean Detroit?? Really? You willingly went to Detroit?

No Long Beach either, damn. Well, how about, when the time comes of course, I say I went to your Oakland show and show up backstage, with a group of raging alcoholic metal-heads loaded on speed, and beat up all posers in sight. Sounds good, see ya then.

He can be a douche when he's high, but then again, he's always high.
