Status: offline 		Well grew up in a small burb by the name of Berkley, Michigan, off the top of my head could only remember one famous person, Unfortunately can't remember his name.  Remember the guy who played Booger in the Nerds movies? (he was also in Moonlighting with Cyble Shepard and Bruce Willis.) He grew up in Berkley, graduated in I think '79 or '80.

A former friend used to swear up and down that Alice Cooper lived in Berkley and went to the high school. Never could find any proof.

Edited to add: This is in Calgary, Alberta. We have many famous people from here, including a crapload of country stars (shockingly).

Not really, I understand that Styx is stll around somewhere, possibly playing soccer with all their free time...

Now if you had said you played soccer with the Tradewinds, that would really date you...
