Zro4

Zro4 Radio
In 1978, Zero recruited disbanded members from the Ugly, Blue Peter, Viletones, the Wads and Dick Duck and the Dorks to form Zro4 along her partner in crime Tony Brighton. To appease their stormy 5 years relationship, Zero and Tony immersed themselves in creating and promoting Zro4. They performed mostly originals and refused to comply with the demands of union gigs, therefore, they played venues that allowed bands freedom to be original. The decade ended abruptly with the band caught in the crossfire of venue supremacy politics. As a result, sadly, Zro4 performed only a handful of gigs in the 80's. They did, however, record a number of original tracks that never saw the light of day. Following the death of Marc Gamage, Zro4, without Tony Brighton for the first time, played the Benefit Concert for Steve Goof of the Bunchofuckingoofs following his arrest for defacing public property. Tony Brighton died in 1990, Zero would find out in 2003. In 2007, long time friend Gary Topp offered Zero to play Mamapalouza at Jeff Healey's Road House. After 20 years, she was reunited with Chick Parker , his first time playing in more than 10 years and what turned out to be his last performance. Chick died in the fall of 2010. Cleave Anderson has staged several opportunities for Zero to perform over the last few years and has been instrumental in fanning the Zro4 flame . Stephe Perry of EqualizingXdistort has given Zro4 an opportunity to be heard and has been encouraging the release of previously recorded material. **************************************************************************************************************************** 2012 - The vault is open, stay tune! **************************************************************************************************************************** Members: Bass,Tony Brighton,Marc Gamage,Marc Houghton,John Borra ** Guitar,Dave Joudrey,Chris Hate,Chick Parker,John Stewart,Eric Wilson,Gavin MacDougall ** Drums,Mike Bambrick,Tom Barnes,Dane Morrison,Glen Milchem,Fred Middleton,Mark Duff,Cleave Anderson** Sax,Casey Irwin ** Violin,Laszlo Szamosvary ** Keyboard,Russ Carson Guest Appearances with Steve Koch,Blair Richard Martin,,Ben D'Cunha,Peter Letros,John Hamilton ,Ian MacKay,Screaming Sam,Marcel LaFleur,John P.

    Does Zro4 have any video footage. My friend just started up a streaming video site that operates like an intrenet TV station if you will. He has a day where he shows live shows by bands and the program is called concert capsules. He is looking for footage and I thought Zro4 might have some material. You can check out the site at www.paxels.com. There is some instruction on how to submit the material on the site.
