Two Two 79
Punk from Groningen!
Punkband started end 1979. Not on february 2 1979, as the name might suggest. Albert (vocals) came up with the date of death of Sid Vicious, bassplayer in the Sex Pistols, as a name for the band. At first Theo (guitars) and Hondema (bass) started the band.
Later on Ron joined. He bought a drumkit and Two Two 79 was almost complete.
Albert was found at a jam-session in Pentastoma, Roden, Netherlands. This night was opened with the final show of Inspiration Breakdown, Albert’s band before Two Two 79.
Ron was a good drummer considering he didn’t have any live-experience, but he didn’t
like punk very much and wasn’t as tight as punk demands.
Lex on the other hand, surely had the right attitude and capacities for a punk-drummer!
This great drummer joined the band after a concert in Simplon (The former punk-hideout of Groningen), as a support-act for the Vopo’s.
Ron didn’t want to play Simplon. At schools and clubs it was ok, but, the northern punkvenue from those days, Simplon was a bit to “rough”.
The other bandmembers went anyway and a roadie of the Vopo’s was willing to play the drums for this show. After this the band decided Ron had to be replaced.
He left the band and Lex joined.
Hij was only 15, modest, but for Two Two 79 the best thing that could happen.
