The Trumpet Geezer's History
ENGLISH
The history of Trümpet Geezers begins when Jonathan had to leave Mexico after a stay of more than one half a decade, due to problems with the justice of that country and decides to return to Mallorca with new resolutions and motivations. One of them: create a Rock and Roll Band........ Knowing that his best friends share the same musical likes and the love for the booze, he proposes the idea of forming a group. The first one to agree is Steve, who ha already hada go at the guitar slingin' in former year and bands, followed by Aritz, who had already played with the first Midnight Travellers.Thus The Trumpet Geezers are born (the name comes from a book on mythology by Nick Cave)........ After getting a rehearsal room, difficult task in the island of Mallorca (a.k.a. the Goddamn Rock), they begin to compose songs as a power trio, with hopes of finding other members that share musical likes as they go along... After a long wait without no luck they decide to convince another of their mates, and brother of Steve, to buy a base guitar and give it a try with the band. After putting him under a lot of pressure and certain blackmail issues he finaly agrees and, with little knowledge on the for string instrument, begins to rehearse with the band........ After increasing the set list and because of the difficulty of getting the apropiate sound with just one guitar, The Trümpet Geezers decide to accept the help offered by a friend and veteran of Palma's musical scene: Mr. Javier Ruiz. After several concerts and months of rehearsals, the guitarist thinks it's time to leave the group to create his own band, with a lesser rock n' roll edge to it........ After his depart, they still manage to do some gigs until the band decides to rest a little and endulge to the composition of new songs. Then they speak with Joan, another frined of the group who plays guitar, and actually convince him too to join the band as second guitarist.......... After a long routine of wild concerts and liquory rehearsals, the band is invited by a sound technician who had been on the controls at one of their shows to record a demo cd in his homemade recording studio. In only one afternoon The Trümpet Geezers, in a cloud o' dust and tequilas and bottles of whisky and bourbon, record their first demo formed by eight selfwriten songs. They recorded in live and in one take, allowing the listeners to have an idea and trustworthy representation of what a concert of the band is like........... Now, the history follows its course with new shows, new songs and new goals. This is our page and those that youcan hear are are our songs. Are you ready to get your ass rocked?!!!!!!!!!!!!
