Pancho and Eric met in grade school and started playing music together a few years later. Back then Pancho had an afro out to his shoulders and was the hard rocking drummer for the band White Lightning. Silas Johnson and Danny Lee (Groomsmen) were also a part of the act.
These days things are just slightly more relaxed. Pancho has 4 kids - 2 girls, 2 boys and is married to Jackie. When he's not banging on the drums or chasing one of the kids, he's a Safety Site Instructor.
Silas is perhaps the hardest person in the bridal party to write a bio for. Eric met Silas at a party where Silas was singing with a band. Shortly after they formed the first version of White Lightning. Silas is well known around SI. Maybe you've seen him perform with the Brooklyn Horns - maybe not. Ask Silas and he'll tell you that he is convinced that he's not human. He doesn't offer an alternative - just not human. He is - a professional mover, antique dealer, furniture dealer and home restorer.
Danny Lee
White Lightning was looking for a bass player. And they found Danny. Accoding to Eric Danny is the greatest bass player he's ever worked with and over the years Danny and Eric formed a strong friendship. Most recently they have both been involved with a band called Cherry Bomb. If any of the lyrics were on the site, it would get an X rating - but hey, they don't write it - they just play it - and play it well. Danny is a Carpet Estimator and happily married to Pauline.
John LaPadula
Nicole's older brother is one way to describe John. Her arch rival growing up is another. If it's true that boys show love by teasing, then John truly loved Nicole. He'll be happy to share the details with you if you ask. But he should be warned that Nicole gathered a lot more ammo against John as they got older than he has on her. And she'll be willing to share too! John works for the DEP and has been involved with the testing for the West Nile Virus.
Vincent LaPadula
Vincent is Nicole's "twin brother" - they were born a month apart. Confused? Vincent's ambition was obvious from a young age. He was a Eagle Scout in the boy scouts and plowed through college in 3 years. He worked full time as he got this Master's from Columbia and continued to work full time when he entered law school. He's on his way to being a lawyer, but he's also on the political fast track. Update on Vincent - Since my wedding, he achieved his goal with Bloomber by helping him to become the new Mayor of New York. Vincent is not working closely with Mayor Bloomberg ad finishing his law degree.
