"Michael Antonio Britt" is an American former professional basketball player who was selected by the Washington Bullets in the 2nd round (32nd overall) of the 1983 NBA Draft. A 6'6" forward from the University of District of Columbia.

Dubbed the "Flying Pencil" by David Remnick of the Washington Post, as some scouts felt his slender frame was too lean for his height, Britt had a phenomenal freshman season at District of Columbia, averaged 24.3 points and 12.4 rebounds in 16 games with the Firebirds varsity. As a sophomore in the 1980-81 season, Britt was joined by 6'10" center Earl Jones (basketball)/Earl Jones, forming an explosive combination, and in 1982, Britt was named the outstanding player in the NCAA Division II tournament and the Firebirds won the championship with a 25-5 overall mark.

The devastation was awful. It just didn't look like the same town.

Dann tends to approach things more from a pop standpoint. We don't try to be a pop band. Justin made a record that was a little more raw, not as 'produced-sounding.' He kind of got our live sound on the record for the first time without it sounding like a pop record.

In hindsight, it's the best thing that ever happened to us. When you go in with the same producer so many times you get a little lazy.

We probably work off of fear, ... We have bills to pay, and we have to split (profits) four ways.

It made us think. Any time you change your whole philosophy, it makes you want to change the things that weren't working that you'd (otherwise) just live with.
