L-R: Luis from Plankeye, Anna, Chuck Cummings, Mark Rodriguez, Michele Palmer (Riki Michele).

Riki Michele Palmer (vocals, Adam Again, singer and songwriter):

"Gene and I were family. We went through all the things that families go through, and we still came out as family. There are bonds that can't quite be explained, and our whole circle of friends has those bonds. There were so many things that Gene couldn't say, but that he certainly felt. That's where the songs came in. They were vehicles to try and make sense out of so much. Those songs still make me dance, laugh, cry and sing. They will be with me always."
