Protect and Swerve is a Police Tribute band based in Fort Worth, Texas. We're not tall blonde and skinny. In fact one of us is short, one of us is fat, and we have 4 members [Mike Richardson, Justin Pate, Eric Dodson, and Matt Hembree]. Hopefully a couple of us will get in a fist fight with each other, that would be sweet.
