Dave Steed

Mr. Steed not only collects ‘80s music, he actually enjoys it. (It may sound a bit strange, but it’s absolutely true.) Most people who know him believe somewhere there is a portly, red-headed voodoo doll placed next to an endless loop of Air Supply tunes that forces Mr. Steed to constantly listen to AOR music, but he swears that his obsession is all his own doing.

Known facts about Mr. Steed include:

A) Also answers to the name Bastard No. 1.
B) Has been talking for six years about getting a tattoo but is afraid he will cry no more than three minutes into it.
C) Believes Frank Stallone was quite talented.
D) On November 13, 2007, he was witness to the greatest five-song iPod shuffle in history:

1. “Guilty” by Barbra Streisand
2. “Payback” by Slayer
3. “Diamond Girl” by Nice & Wild
4. “Songbird” by Kenny G
5. “Corporal Jigsore Quandary” by Carcass

E) If you are really nice to him, he will definitely tumble for ya.
