Dade Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Billy Garcia 36 New York, NY Heavy Metal Guitarist biography Virgilio "Billy" Garcia was born in New York and moved to Miami when he was seven years old. He began studying karate, judo and wrestling at age 12. While lying sick in bed when he was 15, he heard the song "Juke Box Hero" on the radio and began to entertain the idea of becoming a rock and roll musician. He saved his lunch money and eventually bought his first electric guitar. When he was 22 years old, Garcia sold most of his belongings and returned to New York to pursue a career in music. While playing in several local bands, Garcia was also pursuing a career in wrestling and, in 1997, won a silver medal at the Amateur Athletic Union Wrestling National Championships. Garcia is currently a heavy metal guitarist and songwriter with the band Forsakken. He also continues to pursue professional wrestling under the name "Spanish Fly." He previously worked as a manager of a video store, a club bouncer and a music store sales representative. He attended the Borough of Manhattan Community College. He is a former U.S. Marine. Garcia is trained in the martial arts. His hobbies include playing guitar, wrestling, karate, softball and judo. He is most proud of winning his AAU National Championship medal. His hero is Kurt Angle for winning an Olympic gold medal in wrestling with a broken neck. Garcia currently resides in New York. His birth date is April 22, 1970.

Tarman12 Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 So this guy is a heavy-metal guitarist, a professional wrestler, a former Marine, and a karate-judo expert? Odd combination. Wasn't he the one that was trying to cut down a tree with a stick of bamboo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crappysucks Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 What a lazy, delusional fool. I almost busted a gut laughing when he revealed his Candice 'love.' Pathetic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~ Lips ~ Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Heyyyy... Everyone stop pickin' on Billy! He's in loooooooove! Poor Billy... It's gonna be kinda hard to carry on his love-at-first-sight romance from his living room sofa now. Crappy, I had the same reaction as you did. I about peed my panties when Billy revealed his Candace love. I loved Jeff Probst's reaction, too. Priceless! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crappysucks Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Now I almost wish he was still on...our mocking of him was over before it could really begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rook9566 Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Yeah, I thought it was wierd after the challenge when they said they love each other. I thought they were just joking around. Then he says he found the love of his life? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crappysucks Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 He was a Marine...where'd he do basic, Fire Island? And his band is named Forsakken...how '90s hair band cliche is that. I mean, I thought Dokken used up all the 'k's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodos43 Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 I would say that the guy probably has some major emotional/psychological issues. Delusions of Grandeur perhaps? Maybe in his mind he has done all these things, just as Candace and him are in love in his mind. Sad really. Oh well, can't wait to see her reaction when Probst asks her about him, and then when they get asked about it during the Aftershow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sisu power Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Did she really mouth something in his direction? I missed it. Poor guy just made himself look pretty dopey on national TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rejuvenated Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 I've recovered enough to come in here this morning and say someting about Billy's finding his true love....but you guys have said it all already. I hope Candice survives the next 33 days without seeing her true love. Upuntil the moment he let go with that little tidbit of insanity, I was pulling for Ozzy's plan to backfire.

fizzle Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 i think she said "but we love you" after the challenge when he said "i am next" i think he must have taken that as SHE loves him.. i hope he has gotten help for his delusional state.

Scuba Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 THAT'S right! it was we love you.....yes, i can see how he got that they were in love. but didn't he say at tribal that they fell in love on the boat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizzle Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 yeah.. it was love at first sight. at first site she was probably thinking "i hope he is not on my team, he looks like he needs a lot of food" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scuba Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 HAHAHAHA!! he's a tough read at first....could have been a whitey. she may have thought he was on her team and she was working on alliances early Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jersey721 Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Wow, I went from feeling sorry for him & hoping he turns the table on Ozzy to being horrified during trible council & saying outloud "this guy is nuts, he's gotta go" all in 1 minute's time. It's like putting a sour patch kids candy into your mouth and thinking it's sweet and then 5 seconds later your're spitting it out. Hope he goes back on his meds now that he's off the island.

WickedOne Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Guessing he's the 'never quite fit in anywhere unattractive big kid in school' and it's flowed over into adulthood.Let's all take a moment to feel some compassion for Billy Bear. .............. ................. Okay.....I'm over it......NEXT ONE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvin Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Did you skip over the part in his bio that mentions karate, judo, wrestling and the US Marines? I'm guessing he was not a fat kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
