Meet The Blenders
Who are the grooviest* guys in school?
Arguably, The Blenders!
​
They have an indescribable sound, often described as "old and new," "inside out," and "reel-to-real." An organic sound that comes from earnest, endless practice. Gordon Estes, Derek Del Ray, Chip Reader, and Vincent Estes practice every day after school, and it shows! Loafer never practices, and it shows!
Their legendary red cassette known as 'The Ketchup Tape' (first debuted in A-V club) earned grudging praise from the Sting-Ray City School Board. That's no easy feat for a "rock combo". Now let's meet the boys!
​
No one is as smart as Gordon. He plays the bass. He likes BB rifles and impossible-to-understand scientific stuff. His pet peeve is tardiness. There's a girl named Nadine in Chemistry who wears glasses. He taught her how to blend. Gordon vehemently denies this.
​
Girls adore Derek, the lead singer. He loves poetry, Romance languages and substitute teachers. He proposed to three of them already. If you could get him off his surfboard (fat chance!), pull back his blonde locks and look into his blue eyes, there's a decent chance he would propose to you.
​
Chip plays guitar. He likes songs that are easy to play. His recent transformation is a real work-in-progress. He sports Ray-Bans, wears a turtleneck and plays it cool at all times (like the Man from U.N.C.L.E.). He lives with his aunt.
​
Vincent started ninth grade this year and he just figured out that girls exist. Maybe someday he will talk to one.
Or maybe not. For now, he is content to let his keyboard do the talking.
​
Loafer is the drummer. He is, um ... very polite!
​
Now that you have met the boys, please try not to fight
over which Blender will be your Dream Date!​
