Well there is no doubt about Larkin's commitment to Amen and everything they stand for. Larkin had AMEN tattooed on his knuckles shortly after joining the band and later had 'THE END' tatooed below to show that Amen are the band he belongs to. <IMG SRC="1778d5e0.jpg" border=0 width="141" height="94" ALIGN="RIGHT" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">(Oh how wrong we where!)</div> <bR> <div> Another reason people say Casey stands alone, is because Casey has been seen to cut himself onstage. All you have to do to prove that wrong is to look at Larkin's knuckles and you'll see huge chunks missing! In an interview with the band Larkin said "My extremities are this (holding up the scars on his knuckles)". "It is just a self destructive thing where I beat my hands against brick walls. It usually happens when I am on tour and I start to wig out as I am missing my life at home. There are only 30 minutes onstage and everything else is time and then you just kinda go crazy and amuse yourself through alcohol and drugs which we have tried to cut back on. That is why I have stopped drinking hard liquor, as it tends to be an impetus." </div> <bR> <div> Here's the huge list of bands that Larkin has worked with</div> <div> <B>UGLY KID JOE</b><FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Verdana" > </FONT></div> <div> Larkin worked with UKJ from 1994 till they split.<FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Verdana" > </FONT></div> <div> <B>AC/DC</b><FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Verdana" > </FONT></div> <div> Early 1998 DeRock Records released the cd Thunderbolt, A Tribute To AC/DC.<FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Verdana" > </FONT></div> <div> Shannon Larkin (drums), Brad Divens (bass), Klaus Eichstad (guitar), Whitfield Crane (vocals) and Mike Combs (rhythm guitar) he recorded two songs for this tribute album: Live Wire and Ride On.<FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Verdana" > </FONT></div> <div> <B>GLENN TIPTON</b></div> <div> Larkin drummed on near enough all the tracks on Glenn from Judas Priest's solo album 'Baptizm Of Fire'.</div> <div> <B>WRATHCHILD AMERICA / SOULS AT ZERO</b><FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Verdana" > </FONT></div> <div> Before Shannon Larkin joined Ugly Kid Joe in 1994, he played in the band Wrathchild America who changed their name to Souls At Zero.
