Eli Young BandProzak was a New Jersey-based rock band from 1990 - 1996. The band reunited again in 1999 - 2001, and are still known to get together under different names from time to time. Members
HistoryProzak started in 1989 when guitar player Keith Zuccolo spotted his neighbor Scott Holden trying to hitch a ride home one afternoon. Holden had lived only two houses away from Zuccolo, so he decided to pick him up. During their ride they discussed music, and found that they had very similar tastes. Holden had been a drummer in several local bands, but was looking to sing lead. Zuccolo had also played with a few bands but had not been playing with anyone at that time. Both expressed interest in starting a band. As fate would have it, Zuccolo knew drummer Tom Giddings, and Holden knew a bass player, Rob McCausland. By the time they reached Holden's home they had decided to start a band. Rehearsals began within a week and the quartet quickly decided on the name Prozak. They derived the name from a recent controversial drug that had been in the news during that time. They altered the spelling in an attempt to avoid any potential legal issues. This first incarnation of Prozak would last less than a year, perform beer soaked renditions of songs by artists such as AC/DC, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and the Sex Pistols. By fall of 1990, the two members would leave Prozak. McCausland would join the U.S. Army, and Giddings would begin attending college in Albany. Zuccolo and Holden were left to find a new rhythm section. Zuccolo recruited bass player Brian Wagner, and he in turn brought in a drummer. Wagner would play with Prozak on and off until 1993. During that time the band had several drummers. Towards the end of his Prozak stint Wagner was playing with several bands but agreed to play with Prozak until a replacement was found. Bass player Joe Decker replaced him. In 1993 Prozak would see what was to be its best lineup when Zuccolo had a chance conversation with his old boss. As it happened, Zoccolo's old boss had a son in high school that was learning to play drums; his son's name was Chris Pennie. If Zuccolo did not think the band would mind playing with such a young kid, Pennie's father thought it would be a good opportunity for his son. This version of Prozak would play clubs and bars throughout the NJ/NY area. Since Chris Pennie was under the age of 18, his father would accompany the band to many of their performances where age would be an issue. Prozak's live performances displayed tight and talented musicianship and a high-energy vibe. The band also recorded 10 original songs during this period. While never released commercially, bootleg copies exist of Prozak's two demos, as well as many of their live performances. Pennie left the band in 1995 when he began attending Berklee College of Music. Mark Kirstedder stepped in temporarily on the drums until a permanent drummer could be found. Joe Decker then brought Rich Christiansen into the band, but disagreements about the band's direction led to the band breaking up in April of 1996, following a show at the Hoboken club The Love Sexy, in which lead singer Scott Holden appeared on stage dressed as "the Vegas Elvis". In June of 1999, Rich Christiansen approached Joe Decker, Scott Holden, and Keith Zuccolo, about getting back together to play at an Independence Day gathering. Everyone agreed, and on July 3, 1999, the band reunited and played for the first time in over three years. Excited by this reunion, Joe Decker, Scott Holden, and Keith Zuccolo regrouped with Mark Kerstedder on drums (Christiansen was involved in another project). They played together for pure enjoyment for the next year. In 2001, Scott Holden left the band due to a job relocation. Several months later, Kerstedder moved away.

A long-simmering dispute over the origins of Facebook is set to erupt later this month at a federal court hearing about whether Mark Zuckerberg, the young web mogul now being feted by media honchos, stole the original code for his booming social network from three Harvard classmates. Deep in the Congolese jungle is a band of apes that, according to local legend, kill lions, catch fish and even howl at the moon.
