In short We rock!Band/artist history
basically the band first formed in sept 2002. when George Feynee (Vox) and Graham Bayne (Bass, Me) got together in newcastle School of art to write some acoustic stuff. A load of us went out to a punk/rock/metal/hip hop night at our local uni and it was after a few drinks that Drew Eddon (Geetar) joined the band, drink helped us 2 come up with the idea of him joining as well as thinking it was a good idea. About 4 weeks later another guitarist joined, he will remain nameless, but was removed from the band in 1 week. There is only so much bad punk/ska one can take. We then bagged Rich (Other Guitar) at art school. We spent 6 months trying to find A drummer. We got so sick of trying to find one so we decided to put on a gig for an art project, documenting the quest to find one. 3 weeks before the gig drew realise that one of his friends drummed and so BIG Rich joined. And the rest they say is history.Have you performed in front of an audience?So far we have only played back home in Newcastle. We have found ourselves playing at the cooperage a few times now, which we feel is a good thing cos it's quite a prestegious venue. We've been asked to comeback everytime we've played there. Our first gig was in the Tap And Spile. That gig went badly , but we rocked and there was like 80 people exluding the bands and girlfriends of the bands, which is a good turn out. ever 1 in 2 gigs goes a wee bit wrong but the crowd normally don't notice.
