Member Tidbits
- Many of Bang Bang's members can be seen in the obscure indie movie titled Chicago Cab (aka Hellcab) which stars Paul Dillon. Chicago Cab was based on the play Hellcab written by Will Kern which ran at the Famous Door / Ivanhoe Theater on Wellington Street. Tim Beamish and Ed Smaron also played the role of the driver during Hellcab's run.
- Ed Smaron, who did voice work for the game Resident Evil, would often improvise songs on the No Exit cafe's house piano that was adjacent to the stage. In 1998, after singer Rick James was hospitalized for a stroke attributed to "Rock 'n' Roll Neck", Smaron improvised a 3:30 song about the incident and it can be heard here. He previously worked as a morning anchor for The Lakeshore 89.1FM.
- Wesley Walker missed getting the role of Wolverine in the X-Men movie franchise because he was not familiar with the comic book character.
- Burt Heyman, whose whereabouts are unknown, may still be performing at the Hemingway House with the Hemingway Players.

Famous quotes containing the word member:
“The reason why men enter into society, is the preservation of their property; and the end why they choose and authorize a legislative, is, that there may be laws made, and rules set, as guards and fences to the properties of all the members of the society: to limit the power, and moderate the dominion, of every part and member of the society.”
—John Locke (1632–1704)
