The Rage

The story

In 1976, Richard X. Heyman moved to Bethesda, Maryland from his hometown in Plainfield, New Jersey. Not long after his first days there, Richard received a call from a woman who needed a drummer to fill in for her son's band on New Year's Eve. Her son was Ricky Street, later to become his brother-in-law. Ricky was seventeen at the time and already a phenomenal bass player and singer. Richard and Ricky decided to form a new band. They auditioned a fantastic guitarist and a powerhouse drummer, both of whom were fresh out of high school, Tommy Keene and Jim Dougherty (2). That was it, The Rage (11) was born
