In addition to Barry Bates on the drums, band members are lead singer Mark LeBlanc, Drew Hesson on bass guitar, Andrew Triolo on keyboards and David Gayler on lead guitar. Bates says the group tries to pick music that is fun and danceable. u We feel like the music in this town is lacking that,” he says. The Pet Peeves’ repertoire spans the musically diverse decades of the ’50s through the ’80s. And while most of the music they play is not their own, they occasionally write a song or two, Bates says. “When we have time to sit down and write, everything seems to flow really well, ” he says. “There’s obviously something there that gels. ” All of the Pet Peeves are students — with majors ranging from electrical engineering to biomedical science to exercise technology — and music is their hobby, Bates says. “It keeps us busy, but it’s mainly just for fun, ” he says. “I wouldn’t do it if it wasn’t fun. ” It sounds like a good deal. They have fun, make other people happy, and make money doing it. But the focus is more on the music than the band. People could very well have a rip roaring time and forget the name of the band the next day. It’s obvious the band isn’t after long-range, deep impact. It’s a one-night musical stand. They look great, move great, and sing and play so-so. But that doesn’t matter. Their casual, spontaneous attitude is most of the Pet Peeves’ appeal. They may not be destined for stardom, but they do perform a much needed service. They fill a musical void with live and cheap entertainment in a small, boring college town. The band, which has only been around since the middle of August, was formed from another band called the Handouts. Three five members of the Handouts went on to become the Pet Peeves. Bates says the Handouts started off as a group of fraternity members (Tau Kappa Epsilon) playing at parties, until the manager of the Zephyr club told them that if they could get a serious band together, they could play at the club. The band has enjoyed moderate success at Sunset Grill, Eastgate Live, and Le Cabaret, and is a big hit at sorority and fraternity bashes. Bates says while the band has no definite plans for the future, they would like to play at some clubs in Houston, Austin and San Antonio. “I would always love to do it as a hobby, ” Bates says. —by Nancy Neukirchner
