When I suggested I may go into my closet and dig out an old Rip Magazine interview with Jon from Keep the Faith and then actually followed through this weekend by going to seek it out....it turned into a slightly larger project than I anticipated. I knew being a bit of a pack rat would eventually come in handy.

These interviews clearly outline the creative and personal growth of the band beyond the music that made so many of us lifelong fans. I hope you'll all enjoy this three part post getting a glimpse back to a part of the band history that just isn't very well documented on the internet.
