"Okay," you say, "I know a little bit about them, but who is who? I can't tell, and some fansites are a little vague..." Fear no more! I shall explain it to you, mortals people! ^_^


So, John Avila. He's one cool dude, he's also reportedly the shortest of the Boingo group - but hey, Danny needs to be taller than someone (sorry, Danny!). John was bassist and was on vocals with Danny. He's still playing with a band, as it stands, and last I heard they were performing in Los Angeles every once in a while...
Okay, so Warren Fitzgerald was only with Boingo for a short time, and most of the fans don't consider him an official member - but he still was a part of it! In fact, Warren was saved from working at Taco Bell when Danny & co. recruited him to the Boingo cause; what a break. Warren had performed previously with other bands, but I'm guessing it wasn't enough to live on. I wonder if he still works at Taco Bell...?
Ah, this chap. Johnny "Vatos" Hernandez, drummer and (apparently) temporary drag queen during Farewell (didn't really need to see you in a dress, boy). But I'm just guessing, here, as I wasn't there and only have the DVD. Anyhow, yes, Johnny DID inspire the song "Cry of the Vatos," but I don't know how or why. As far as I know, he's still twirlin' those ol' drumsticks! ^_^
If there's one guy who always seems subdued, it's Steve Bartek. He appears as the responsible, sane one, gazing down on his bouncing comerades (Danny, John and Warren, in Farewell's case) like a disapproving mother hen. But whatever his actions, there's no doubt that Steve's a fantastic guitarist. Remember the fantastic beginning of "Just Another Day"? That was Steve! Nowadays, Steve serves as Danny's orchestrator for his scores.
~Heya Mr. Sax...~ ...*ahem* Well, I just gave away what old Leon Schneiderman played, but it's not like it's a giant secret or something. *lol* Leon is part of Boingo's fabulous Horn Section (that's right, they had a horn section!), and seems a very nice guy - even in a freaky Jester's costume!
Sam "Sluggo" Phipps, unlike the other Horn Section (yes, it deserves capitols) members, got a singing role. Remember "Reptiles and Samurai"? The other singer besides Danny, in that song, is Sluggo! Pretty cool eh? He looked pretty sulky through most of the final concert (what, does he hold a grudge with Danny for cutting the horn section for a while?), and he was one of the original Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo.
I am at a true loss with information about Dale Turner. Gah, I feel so bad. >_< (*ignores strains of Can't See (Useless)*) The third member of the Horn Section, just about the only moment I can remember Dale for is when he mocked Danny's goatee ("what kind of a beard is that, anyway?") backstage in Farewell. Hehe.
Oh, dear. Yes, no band would be complete without the token insane frontman, and Boingo is without exception: meet Danny Elfman! Yeah, this is the guy who does all those movies with Tim Burton; the one and the same. A film composer now, back then he was a nuclear-haired singer for a strange, strange little band. Danny, being main singer and frontman, has the biggest amount of pictures on the 'net, it seems like, and the most interviews under his belt. Danny, in addition to singing, played Rhythmn Guitar and composed all of the music and lyrics. Quite a talented guy.
