Having formed the Boat Drunks exploratory committee in the winter of 2000, Jake is considered the "father" of the Boat Drunks. In the winter of 2000, while trying to form the Boat Drunks, Jake met Mike Miller, and was invited to do the lead singing and play rhythm guitar (something new!) with Southern Cross. While with Southern Cross, he opened shows for several rock legends: The Marshall Tucker Band, The Grandmothers (Frank Zappa's old band), and Kevn Kinney (former front man of Drivin' and Cryin').
These are videos from concerts where The Boat Drunks played, so they may be of other bands that played the concert as well.
