Johnny is a longtime very close friend of Layne's. They were pretty much inseparable during the days I went to the Music Bank.  They were always laughing an joking around.  It was actually really hard for me to accept they were not in a band together anymore.  However, I am so lucky to have followed Johnny, James and Nick's musical careers throughout the years.  Johnny and James with Second Coming and Nick with My Sister's Machine. To this day I still follow  their current projects.  They are all truly talented musicians.
