Band/artist history
LINUS was started in the Hole at Lincoln Christian College when Chris Allen told Matt Poppe and Michael Johnson to quit being wusses and start a band together. Given that both Matt and Michael liked the same type of music, they reluctantly agreed. Matt would play bass guitar and Michael would play the guitar. But they needed a drummer.
Before the search for a drummer could be started, Chris slipped a bit of information to Seth Dralle that Matt and Michael needed a drummer for their band. Seth, being a drummer himself and aching to play with any band that needed one, asked Matt and Michael if they were interested in his drumming skills. Being that Matt and Michael preferred to have a good drummer over a bad one, they agreed that Seth should drum for their new-found band.
After a while, for no apparent reason, the name LINUS was selected among others like JASPER, FIDEL, BOX SOCIAL, and THE PRANCING DAISIES. LINUS began playing together in November of 2002, singing songs of blasphemy, holy warfare, and summers spent playing Skip-IT.
The band enjoys long embraces, Ramen noodles, and tugging on Seth's tassles while giggling like school girls.
