Tangent originated with Reagan Bell and me.  After a short while, we looked like this:

Shaun Skillin:Guitars, Keyboards, Vocals

Reagan Bell:Guitars, Keyboards, Vocals

Phil Hronas: Drums

Hank ??:Bass

We were a working cover band. Our practice space was in the back room of the house we rented with Jeff and Evan and (usually) Larry.  Reagan and I both worked 2nd shift at the time, so our schedule was just a bit skewed, but it was prime party time.
