[edit] Did Quintron die in 1995?

If Mr. Rolston is Quintron, which I have no doubt he is, he possesses amazing powers of regeneration:

Hi. Math were a Chicago band who, I believe, began in the late '80s and broke up around early 1994. The core members are Jodie Mecanic (who went on to duotron and monotrona) and Robert Rolston (who died in a car crash in 1995).

Math FAQ

Well, I am the one who added the name. I got the name from the name his songs are written by in his repertoire at [1]. Can a dead man write songs? No. Either he is using a different name in writing his songs (I doubt it....i'm pretty sure a legal name has to be used) or the Math FAQ is wrong. Quintron couldn't have died in 1995....I just talked to him through email.....he still performs live......we are being lied to.

I spoke with Quintron, in person, about three weeks ago. He's not dead. The problem is that there is massive confusion between Robert Rolston, and Jay Poggi. Check out the AMG article. These NOLA 9th ward artists apparently love to feed everyone bogus info.

To make all this even more confusing, I just emailed Weasel Walter, and he said

"i will tell you this:

1) quintron is not the man's real name 2) he did play in a band called math 3) the man who played in math is dead to him

hopefully this helps!

ww"

Cryptic, yes. But is his name Jay Pogi or Robert Rolston? I'm leaning towards RR, because of the fact that his songs are registered under that name. Also, that AMG article is full of holes, like the discograph for example.....Gems of Masochism isn't evfen by him, it's by a band called Antiotch Arrow. Satan is dead wasn't released in 2000, according to the article, but in 1998. Anyone care to set the record straigh once and for all?

Jay Poggi is definitely not Quintron, he's MC Tracheotomy. I think your research of the BMI Repertoire was correct and that Quintron's real name is David Robert Rolston. The only reference I could find to Rolston from Math having died was some old usenet message. So I think that the most likely thing is that the information on Rolston having died in a car crash is bogus.

--Eli lilly 01:07, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I think that was some bogus info. I just talked to a person who's been on the scene since 1995, and he's gone and seen Math, and he told me that Quint's real name is definatley Robert David Rolston. Case closed!
