"We even hang out when we are off - you would think we would get sick of each other, " DeJesus jokes. "It sounds so simple, but so many people forget to do it."Īnd just like a marathon runner needs support during the race and training regimen, Adelitas Way - DeJesus, Stafford, Keith Wallen, Robert Zakaryan and Derek Johnston - also lean on one another. "Sometimes you have to really just enjoy life," DeJesus says. "Laugh a little louder, love a little harder." To stay on pace, DeJesus follows this mantra, a line from the song "Alive" off the band's latest album, "Home School Valedictorian": Anything less, and we would be disappointed in ourselves." I have no doubt we will be top motivation - we will bring the energy and get things where they need to be for the day. "We wanna make sure we come out and destroy.

When DeJesus was starting out as a musician, he passed out 6,000 demo tapes on the streets, lived in his car for three months and wore the same shirt every day for a year to save money. 3, but his determination and unbeatable hustle embodies what pushing yourself is all about. Not only will DeJesus and his Las Vegas-based hard rock band bring the noise at the Forsyth Park finish line Nov.
