When you start a band with extreme sports althletes, it will be hard to get everyone together to play a gig. Dan Dryers from Germany did get their 7 person crew together for a gig in the Double Down in Las Vegas during the last day of the Interbike show. They were actually on a California/Arizona/Nevada tour which will look good on their resume once they get back to their home country. Although only 10 people showed up at their first gig, they even got a little pit together in the Double Down Saloon. New costumes were purchased along the way and especially Martin and Busty looked great in their new outfits.

Now a good thing was that the first band really sucked. And I mean, they sucked. Even the Southbay Surfers play better music and the singing was horrible. When Dan Dryer

s made it "on stage" it could not get much worse and from the beginning till the end people got actually off their seats to check the band from up close. To say that the band raised the roof of the Double Down is a bit exaggerated but they were rocking for sure and be honest, who whould not want to play in the OJA of Las Vegas themselves. Next stop Rock Am Ring?
