Drummy The Drum Machine - Funnily enough... on drums! Also potential makeshift terrain to be used in games of Warhammer 40,000.
Roll Of Tape - The most important member of the group. If it weren't for the mysterious Roll Of Tape, holding guitars and er-... doodads... together, the band would, quite literally, fall apart.
Influences
The Ramones, comic books, Dungeons And Dragons, science-fiction, Elvis, online gaming, Sy Snootles, The Queers, The Maori Volcanics, Conan.

2 geeks that can't sing or play. So, uhhh... well, quite shit, really.
However, they DO watch Star Wars alot, so, you know, they sorta reckon that balances things out. :)
In addition, Fidget can eat an entire pot of rice all by himself ( and we're talking about a fucking big pot here, not, like, one of those little ones that you boil up a couple of eggs in for breakfast, but then end up burning the toast, and FARK! Was the cat licking out of the marmite jar again?! ). It's kinda his mutant super-power or something.
Gisborne's crappest band. Oh, and also very ugly. You can contact them and laugh and make jokes about the wearing of paper bags on their heads at the following e-mail ( "E-mail, 'da e-mail; ooh, ooh! da e-mail!" ), if you like :

NOTE FROM RES:
The Rocket Jocks EP "Next Stop; Moon!" is out. Just click on the link to buy.
On this [ The Rocket Jocks'] debut EP, they sing songs about girls, science fiction and, uh, Judy Jetson. Stylistically, the music sounds like The Ramones holding hands with 50s doo-wop in the back row of the movies... Catchy as hell and ten times as danceable. - Punkas.com
