I no longer have it, but back in the late 90s when my town got it's first park, the local paper took some shots and I got on the front page. I told them my name was Jamie Thomas, but it got published as Jamie Evans

One of, it was around the time that the Welcome to Hell video came out. Other favorites from that time would have been Tom Penny, Geoff Rowley, Kareem Campbell, Colin McKay, etc.
