The Noodles
Sometime around late ’95 early ’96, Kim Ladd and John Reuter met and started hanging out as fellow Deadheads for Friday happy hours at the local bar “Casey Moore’s” in Tempe, AZ. One summer evening in ‘96 after a few drinks, Kim says “I used to play rhythm guitar in a bluegrass band” and John says “I used to play lead guitar in a Grateful Dead band, let’s go to my house and Noodle”. The rest is history.
