Artist History
Libido was formed during early September 1987 in Peoria Illinois when four eighteen-year olds, Joe Calgaro, Chic Evans, Ron Holohan, and Maynard Wade, were asked to perform together at a college sponsored Halloween party. Seventeen-year old Dean Dailey was added on bass guitar. Soon after forming, Chic left the band and Libido continued to grow and soon became one of the most promising young central Illinois bands during the 1980's. In 1989, Dean Dailey moved to Kansas, yet still remained active in the band. Shortly after, Ron Holohan moved to Champaign, Illinois to pursue a degree in Audio Engineering at the University of Illinois. Due to creative and personality differences within the band, the band broke up after a show in 1992. Six years later, during June 1998, the band performed a reunion show with all four original members at the Elandorf Music Festival in Peoria, Illinois. During the show, Ron Holohan found himself proposing on stage to his then girlfriend and soon to be wife. Since that time, Ron has recently released much of his earlier solo work (www.mp3.com/ronholohan) as well as two studio project albums (www.mp3.com/texture) as Texture. The other three original members Dean, Joe, and Maynard have apparently disappeared and are considered by many to be dead. Some say Joe's voice can be heard on certain radio frequencies around Appleton, Wisconsin on clear summer nights. Others have claimed to have seen Dean Dailey at a music store in Kansas. And still others believe that Maynard may have altered his appearance and is now known as "Kid Rock". The whereabouts of Won, Libido's longtime manager and Steak n' Shake fan, is still a mystery. Libido fans still search for answers to these questions and they eagerly wait for the day that Maynard's favorite number will finally be uncovered. |
