Terry Westerman AKA Rocker Terry
Terry has been playing guitar since he was thirteen when he got a garage
sale guitar for his birthday and has been hanging out in music stores ever
since. Terry had various original projects including the band Autonomy with
Matt Killbride that recorded a demo in Letia Rae's (of Slave Raider fame)
basement studio and got played on Earl Roots, Root of all Evil radio show in
the early '90s. After that he did a stint in the band Hanover Fist playing
classic metal cover tunes. He started the Hooligans in 2000 and hasn't
stopped jumping on top of bars and playing his guitar behind his head since.
Terry plays the cheapest guitars that he can find (from various countries
around the world). His moto is if it breaks i don't want it. He plays
Randall amps and has thrown one across a parking lot to prove that they
won't break (that's the same one he has played at every Hooligan show since
2000). Terry is under the influence of Boone's Farm wine, Miller Highlife,
Angus Young and Jäg-bombs (thanks to Dan!!).
