Jake of Thumbs

Missing since: August 6th, 2009 – the day McDonalds started refusing to sell the "McDeath".

Last seen: Being escorted from a Broadmeadows Cricket Club social function by security, all the while demanding to know what was wrong with his karaoke version of Bon Jovi's "Living on a Prayer", retitled "Living with a Giant Pair (of Balls)".

Last meal: Nandos double-breast burger with cheese and onion, extra hot.

Answers to: Blue Steel, Paperboy, Avenged Jakefold, The Shreddler, Jakeipede, Mormileopia, and "Linden needs a lift".

Non-musical band role: L. Audino's personal taxi service

Favourite Thumbs song: All Fours

Favourite venue: East Brunswick Club

Genre of choice: melodic math/tech death core

Previous bands: Isolar, Devoiid and a purple headband called "Murgatroyd".

Special move: The Brutal Breakdown Ninja Kick – unleashed without warning, this special move silences all conversations in an instant. Stunned onlookers clasp their mouths to stifle giggles while all credibility is sucked from the room in a giant vacuum of embarrassment. Normally with only a 6.7 difficulty rating, The Shreddler's ability to unleash the Brutal Breakdown Ninja Kick while driving, showering or in front of any reflective mirror-like surface makes it extremely tough to emulate. It has the greatest range of all special moves and can be seen from a distance of many kilometres.

Musical shame: Too numerous to name, notable mentions include Avenged Sevenfold, video game music, and that one song by Coheed and Cambria.

Catchphrase: *groans* "Ohhhhhhhh... Whyyyy?? God, I hate you guys."

If he wasn't in House of Thumbs, he'd be: spending more time whining about everything and everyone on earth.

Voted most likely: to complain about something in his bio, then drive to the nearest fast food restaurant. Ordering the “Triple-Double Bacon and Ham with extra cheese, extra bacon, and extra cheesy-bacon", he'll then crank the Avenged Sevenfold so passer-bys can't hear his uncontrollable sobbing.


An athlete of outstanding potential, Blue Steel's promising sports career was cut short by a neck injury developed while trying to nail Jeff Loomis' solo in Nevermore's "This Godless Endeavour". Such prodigious ability also had him touted as a future cricket captain of Australia until he developed a twisted spine from thousands of hours spent at his computer replying to the bevy of female fans who found him "ridiculously good looking".

Has since become misanthropic and moody, howling in pain constantly to anyone within earshot and listening almost exclusively to Emo and Core bands. A shadow of his former self, Blue Steel's ivy-league good looks have left him with two possible careers: a Zoolander-impersonator/stripper or an anchor on a TV sports show. Neither are in line with his desire to form and preside over the Victoria chapter of the Avenged Sevenfold Fan Club, Victoria.

Has been known to go days without eating, and is the reason for one of the bands only two rules: "eat every day".
