Very much like fellow Chicagoans Regional H, 3 Dudes and a Inactive Chick is truly a two-piece band comprising a guitarist/vocalist (Tom Repetny) and a drummer (Jerry Hicks). Repetny and Hicks met up in August 1994 and within a calendar year landed an area on DJ Mancow Muller’s well-known morning plan. The promotion helped local product sales of their self-released 1995 record Pod, as well as the music group agreed upon with Hammerhead Information to improve their exposure. Understanding how to Kill was released in 1998.
