Edge Runner
Edge Runner is the name of the band and we play Original Heavy Hard Rock. We started out as an Original Heavy Prog Rock Fusion band but we thought we were too diversified. We decided to rock out and delve less into the progressive and fusion side.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
The guitarist, Pat Long, and I started the band in 1990 with bassist Drago. He left then Nabil joined the band on bass guitar. This lasted for about a year then we went our own ways.
Pat and I reformed the band in 2002 with Pete Rodriguez on Bass Guitar and vocals. We played for over three years then we took a break last year. We are still on a break.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We played live in and around Chicago. We are all pursuing our own solo projects at this time.
