The band of Oz was started in 1991 by myself and Keith Burns, and in those days it was a four piece with guitars and drums. We soon had a huge following playing all sorts of classic rock songs. After a break we teamed up with three ex-members of Jagged Edge, we had another break in 1999, then we came back as a Quo tribute band called Four Play Quo until going back to the Band of Oz 18 months later. We went back to a four piece in late 2007 and after a little time fancied a change of direction and helped form the new improved Band of Oz, now playing more modern music.
Equipment:
I use a Gibson SG standard (ace), Peavy Valveking 50 Watt combo. My FX pedals are, a Boss Flanger, Boss Chorus and a Marshall Govener. Not forgetting a Samson Airline for my SG, a wirless Shure SM 58 mic and a Roland Space echo for my Gob.
Munzi - Vocals/Lead Guitar.
Hi, I'm a born and bred Pompey fan. I picked up my first guitar in 1977 and joined my first band 'Nucleus' in 1979 (with the very same guitar you see here). I then joined or formed many bands over the years until I moved to Huddersfield in 2002.I started playing with various musicians before joining 'The Fabulous Rocking Sturgeons' in 2004 messing with loud R O C K covers which I still do to this day (it's my thursday night out don't you know !!). I first met Bandofoz when I took over Craig’s old spot in summer 2005 playing bass. I then reverted to guitar again and helped form Rockjunkies with Dave, Craig and Nelly in April 2007 eventually returning to the current Bandofoz in 2009 and, after a bit of a shakeup we now have a superb show.
Equipment:
My gear..well, I have three identical brown stripey bollocks (long story !) which I connect to my pedal board via a Samson AP1 wireless unit into a TC Electronic G-sharp, Morley Alligator volume, Digitech (Rage against the machine) Whammy, Cry Baby Wah, and my own variety of boost/cut switches and all sorts of other gizmoes and power units (I even have a clock !) which all trundle along a multicore to my yummy Marshall JCM900 100w valve head and 4x12 cab - luuuvly.
Andy D - Vocals/Drums.
I started playing the drums at the age of 17, i had lessons with a private tutor then had more lessons at 25 with the drummer from the Buzzcocks. I previously played in a band from Oldham called The Runs (for 8 years), before coming to live in Huddersfield, i've been living here for 4 years now and had the plesure of playing in a couple of great bands. I met Oz while working at the same place and became great friends, now we are in the same band, and what a band it is !!!!! Come on the new Band of Oz.
Equipment:
I use a Premier Artist Maple in pearl white (the same size as the late great Jon Bonham's) with Zildjian 'A' and 'Z' custom crash cymbals, Meinl MB20 Hi-hats and Ride Cymbal and all Premier 4000 series hardware. Shure SM58 mic and some exspensive drum mic's.
