My friend and I first formed the band as "Medallion" in 8th grade. After changing the name to "Stone Foxx" and adding a couple new members, the band stayed the same until my Sophomore year, when my friend, Ray, the bassist, moved to Florida. Then the other guitar player and I got together at our marching band camp, and formed the "Sleaze Lizzards" as a joke.
Well, after changing our name to "The Generics," we played a couple of concerts at our high school. Then, after getting our old drummer, Feezil, from Stone Foxx to join us, we had a set line-up. We mainly just practiced and wrote original songs. We played a few gigs in the area, but never anything major. Right as we were about to get some major gigs, the band broke up.
Ironically, a new band suddenly appeard that had the same line up as The Generics, only with a different lead guitar player. :-P So now, this new band is getting real nice gigs, and I havent played in a band ever since. I am currently working on getting a band together, but I don't have enough time to make that big of a commitment. Oh well, I guess I ll just have to stick to computers. :)
