Gary Sinese Remembers His HPHS Band

HIGHLAND PARK, IL — Highland Park High School alumnus Gary Sinese stayed cool when confronted with a photo from his high school days on a CBS day time talk show.

For a "throwback Thursday" segment on an episode of "The Talk" this week, Sinese was shown in an undated photo from his time at HPHS wearing a vest with fringes and an American flag.

"Talk about regret," he joked.

Actor and Steppenwolf co-founder Sinese, 61, said the photo was taken from his time performing in a band called Half Day Road. He that was the last time he ever tried to be a band's lead singer. "The singing was over after that."

Sinese stars in the CBS television show "Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders." In addition to his film and television career, he is an active supporter of veterans groups and often performing for troops with his Lt. Dan Band.
