The CREEM Archive presents the magazine as originally created. Digital text has been scanned from its original print format and may contain formatting quirks and inconsistencies.

HOME: Out of Nowhere.

AGE: Young. Very young.

PROFESSION: MTV Troupers.

HOBBIES: Surviving another bad love, winning some, losing some, kissing off with style, covering old Smokey Robinson tunes.

LAST BOOK READ: Being There by Doug Fieger.

LAST ACCOMPLISHMENT: Releasing a mini-LP that seemed to fade into oblivion, and then exploded a full sun cycle later.

QUOTE: “What?”

PROFILE: New York’s Patty Smyth and Connecticut’s Zack Smith joined forces, released an EP, went nowhere, got a video on MTV, got a song all over the radio, became rock stars, jump a lot on stage, are real cute, may be one-shot wonders, but we doubt it.

BEER: Boy Howdy!
