RAM BIGHORN STAGE
One day a couple of years ago Yukon Jack’s kids were walking down the hill and heard a live band performing. They thought the sound was cool so they ran home to tell their Dad about the band. Yukon filled his trusty glass with his favorite beverage and strolled down to where the sound was coming from. When he rang the bell he was greeted by a lovely blonde who informed Yukon that while the sound was indeed coming from the right house what the kids had heard was her husband, Luigi Ricardo Cinzano, drumming to a Lenny Kravitz tune on his sound system. The next thing Yukon knows he is escorted down to the basement and he meets Luigi. About 12 hours later after muy cervesas and Yukon’s libations were consumed, the idea of Rokkerbox was formed.
Yukon then started the search to round out the band since Yukon and Luigi formed the rhythm section, Bass and Drums respectively. After an ad in Craig's List and many inquiries, Mrs. Jim Shorts asked if her husband might audition for us. Jim is a classically punk trained guitarist, vocalist and showman and it did not take long before Rokkerbox numbered three. But who would be the fourth? The search continued and players came and went until one day Pete Moss, guitar virtuoso and all around vocalist and cool dude, arrived at a practice and sat in. The vibe was good and the first gig was upon us so Pete agreed to play and see how it went. Well this story has many twists and turns so we won’t bore you with all of it but suffice to say that Rokkerbox is here and ready to rock you!
