Yeah, here we are! And here is the story.We gathered together long time ago to make and save some Rock and Roll from grunge-shit influenced kids at those days. And it was terrible at first. Nobody could make a decent tune, even a proper chord. And we had no proper instruments! So we split up till next summer (it was very cold winter). And we came along again after.
There were two guitars and one drum set. It was interesting in the beginning and little bit later one guitar was replaced by bass. Mica took mike and guitar, Andrija was slamming his bass like his idol Lee Rocker (The Stray Cats) and Bora spent his excursion money to buy some drum parts. So we started playing some covers (mostly from The Stray Cats, The Ramones and some local bands) till we made our own tunes.
Then Andrija joined more famous rock-a-billy band Adam i Komete leaving us without a clue. Mica's friend Petar joined DMT soon and we moved on. He was hard-headed and we had to set him loose soon. Then Andrija came back (how, why?) and we continued it for some time.
In September 1993. Bora had to join the Army and his young neighbour from Novi Sad joined us. He was pale and hungry but he kicked those drums very hard. His name was Goran and he's going to stay with us till since. We made real progress with new drummer whose idols were Bill Randt (from The NBT) and Keith Moon. At the same time we found The Devil Dogs' "Saturday Night Fever" and the Rock and Roll started to make sense.
After few years of Rockin' Andrija left us for good and his little brother jumped in. Ivan (but everyone here call him Glee) made the first serious recording with us. There were some recordings before but we didn't take them seriously. Ivan also played with Mighty Dogz, hard rock band and our friends. When they took some real gigs and recordings we just left Ivan to play with them only.
Then Nesa came to play with us. He and Mica went to High school together and he was always influenced by hard core music and big boobies magazines. When he left his death metal band (ha!) he found out Rock and Roll and learned how to Rock (instead of praying Satan!). And Rock chicks were more interesting than metal slugs. He also started to sing backing vocals.
Everyone interesting to see DMT in their hometown can write to Bertrand "T"

So here we are now. We're DMT. We wish you helluva party!
And we have almost forgotten to review past two european tours.
The First One was 04.-26.04.2004. and we really had great times. Bertand was our mother, driver, sound guy and the biggest fan. He safely drove us allover France and Spain showing us some great clubs and meeting great kids there. His Volvo 740GL had enough space for all backline and our backpacks roaring like big cat and running over 140 km/h.
The Second One (11.-28.11.2004.) was not so easy as The First One since we had to drive and take care on our own. Bertrand had to tour with The Supersuckers so we got a Citroen van C4 and hit the roads of France, Belgium, Holland, Danmark and Germany. It was hard finding all those clubs in big cities but we never came late. Although we were tired we had great shows and just one more thing: hey kids, we love you all!
So that was it... almost. After a while Mladen joined surf band called Ragman and Goran somehow got back to DMT.
We rocked on since...
