Bud Olsen manages a restaurant in real life. He is very adept at rolling up microphone and speaker cords neatly and plays the guitar like Segovia. Unfortunately, we don't do any of Segovia's stuff.
Tod Brendlen sells industrial safety equipment (whatever that is) as a profession and plays banjo and guitar. He has the unusual gift of being able to tune them to the hum of an air conditioner or flourescent light. His favorite vacation spot is the Bermuda Triangle.
Dean Hammer works as a human resources manager, plays the tenor guitar and sings the tenor parts with all the fervor of Pee Wee Herman in a cold shower. He is also our shirt monitor and once took some guitar lessons from Dave Guard who was then teaching his new "color" guitar method. Unfortunately, Dean is color blind.
Dave Guard once referred to the County Line Trio as the "museum version of the Kingston Trio" due to our dedication to early Kingston Trio arrangements.
