Info about Off-Topic
The band started somewhere around Feb. 2005, when Erik approached skabuoy about playing in a band, and, with addition of a drummer, the first couple of rehearsals were played. They didn't work out satisfactory, and it took the better part of a year before another drummer was finally found. Shortly after that, Mieke joined. When the drummer was offered a position in another band, he left to pursue bigger goals, causing the band to yet again come to a grinding halt for almost a year. When Midas stepped in behind the skins, things sped up quite a bit. It took him a month or two to introduce Chris, and a few months after that Roosje joined. About three months later the first gig was played. After that, both Mieke and Roosje left, to be replaced by Mike.
