Our story, so far:
It all started out with four of us, talking about how cool it would be to start a rockinclub. We felt that it wasnt enough happening around here in Norway, so after a bit of to do or not to do, we finally decided to start:)
This was around may 1999.
We first asked the local clubs around, if we could book the bands, and they get most of the income, but not one was interested, can you believe that?.
Since some of us was members of Moss Amcar Cub, we asked to borrow their club house for a gig, and that was ok.
We was now counting 10 members.We had our first party July 31st 1999.
It was our Swedish friends in Black Knights, who opened the ball, and it was so great that we had to continue.
In the same building as the amcar club, there was also a biker club, and since they had found another place for their club, we got their old place.
After a month of hard work of knocking down walls, building a stage, painting etc., it was finished and we re-opened in september with The Trouble Boys (ex. Teencats)
Our intensions was from day one to do one gig each month, since the scene in Norway aren't good enough for weekly gigs.
Its now year 2006 and we're 8 members, and and we're still kickin' and strugglin' to survive, only to get some real rockin' action to Norway. Remember to support your local rockin' joint, because without You, we're nothing!
A few weeks ago I backed up Don Woody at the 1st Rockabilly Bash. I did that with the Tri-Tones from Estonia. Here’s a video clip with his song “Barkin’ Up The Wrong Tree”.
At the same evening I released my 2nd album ‘Mixed Up”. I recorded this album with The Neva River Rockets from Russia, the Tri-Tones from Estonia and did two duets with U.S.A singer Karling Abbeygate.
