THE DÃœMFÃœX

About Me

*****RULE 1: PLAY SONGS THAT YOU LOVE*****RULE2: CHANGE THE SET-LIST EVERY SHOW*****RULE 3: THE SET LIST STAYS SECRET UNTIL THE SHOW*****RULE 4: SEE YA' NEXT YEAR...*****Harken Ye to the legend of the DÜMFÜX.Historians will say I'm a liar, but then... history has always been written by winners. Or the ones who killed everybody who could contradict their side of things.The DÜMFÜX (code named DÖÖMFÖX for the radio) were formed, much like a priceless diamond, with pressure and time... and compacted carbon based refuse. The result of a promise, a birthday party, and drunken sex on an unforgiving hardwood floor, the band came together in 1995 to the delight of the 15 members of the so-called audience.In a set that lasted 49 minutes, the band started and stopped 13 songs, finishing only one - "Blitzkrieg Bop" by the RAMONES; which they promptly played 3 times more.Having proven the mastery of this classic gem, they quickly set their sights on the world.However, they immediately disbanded because of lawsuits and a beer-damaged $1500 soundboard.An attempt in 99' to reform this omega of all mega-groups was thwarted when guitar player C.T "The Lizard" Sampson left town to "cure cancer and shit." Returning in 2003, having only cured shit, the slow process of establishing dominance über älles was begun.The date was December 31st, 2003, when our heroes retook the stage.C.T (Guitar), Dizzy Draztik (Vox), Pope Harvey the 29th (Guitar) - and two newcomers: Vato Loco (Drums/Jäger) & Stevie Fux (Bass & Gauntlets).This lineup would last one show. Mostly due to Dizzy's incessant love for horse tranquilizers and a liflong dream to marry a Mormon. When these two goals became a reality, the foursome went on, with "The Lizard" handling vox on a semi-professional basis.Also beginng in 2004 were the cavalcade of guest stars from the other local bands in Iowa, and the introduction of the DUMETTES, chosen because of their skills and the fact that the rest of the band was very, very unfortunate looking.Now, the clouds have parted, the stars have aligned and the werewolves have begun shaving themselves in anticipation of the return of the FUX in 2007.Let the traditions continue... Let the buffoonery commence... Let the panties fly...Let the FUX begin.
