The full and working lineup was together for a few months and then Bufo hit the band with leaving the band for he got another job and did not have the time to be the full time singer in the band anymore.
This time was not the guitar player who had to be replaced. It was the frontman…
They begun with searching the right replacement and four months later they found a replacement Jernej Kuzmic – Kuzo who had given the band the feeling that he can fill the singer spot. They had only a few rehearsals and Kuzo was on stage. He did not even know all the lyrics so he improvized a lot of the show.
