THE OXPECKERS

About Me

WE ARE A STREET PUNK Oi!82 POGO BAND FROM LA PUENTE CA. WE HAVE BEEN AROUND FOR TWO YEARS AND WE PLAY REGULARLY AT BACKYARDS. WE ALL STARTED UP WHEN MYSELF AND JAVI DECIDED TO START SOME SHIT. A MONTH LATER HE HAD OUR FIRST "PRACTICE". OUR SET MAINLY CONSISTED OF COVERS BUT FUCK IT. AT THE TIME JAVI WAS ON BASS AND I WAS ON GUITAR. AFTER A WHILE WE GOT LONLEY AND DECIDED TO ADOPT JOHN O AS OUR SINGER. WE KEPT JAMMING OUT UNTIL WE GOt A DRUMSET,(BY THE WAY WE NEVER HAD A DRUMMER!!) WHEN WE FINALLY GOT OUR DRUMSET I DECIDED TO LEARN TO PLAY IT. I TAUGHT MY SELF AND JAVI WENT TO PLAY GUITAR BUT NOW WE HAD NO BASSIST. WE HAD OUR FIRST GIG WITH NO BASS AT JOSSIES HOUSE. IT WAS PRETTY GOOD GIG FOR OUR FIRST GIG. THEN WE GOT A BASSIST BY THE NAME STEVE O. WE HAD A HANDFULL OF GIGS WITH HIM UNTIL TRAGEDY STRUCK AND SOMETHING HAPPEND WITH HIM!!! WItCH LEFT US WITH NO BASSIST!!!!! BUT LUCKILY I MET RAFITA AND I ASKED HIM TO JOIN AND MAKE NOISE WITH US. SO FAR WE ARE STILL FULL OF AWESOMENESS HITTING UP SHOWS AND HAVING A GOOD TIME. AND THROUGH OUT THIS WE HAD ONE HARDCORE ROADY BY THE NAME OF JENNY, SHE HAS FOUGHT MANY BATTLES WITH US AND FOR US. OH YEA AND BY THE WAY WE GOT OUR NAME WHEN MYSELF, JAVI, AND JOHN O DECIDED TO TAKE A TRIP TO NORTH AFRICA. WE WERE THERE HANGING OUT LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE UNTIL WE GOT ATTAKED BY VICIOUS NORTH AFRICAN MOTH!!! BUT LUCKILY THERE WERE SOME OXPECKER BIRDS THERE TO HELP SAVE OUR LIVES! AFTER THAT WE WERE SO GRATEFUL THAT WE DECIDED TO NAME OUR BAND AFTER THEM.. NOT REALLY..
