Try to imagine a band without rythm, it'd would be like a flower without petals,
or a wine without taste, a woman without love...
I'm the rythm, the petal, I provide the love to the songs we play.
Here's an example of my expertise and passion: it is an excerpt from "Tres Hombres Locos",
an instrumental song of ours.
Enjoy,
Joaquin

I was supposed to record something to be put here, to make everybody listen to the
way I play. I chose not to play a cover, and not to play just fast heavy licks
to prove how good I am... It would have been too simple and I really couldn't
see the point there...
I sit sometimes on
my couch thinking about something or someone, strumming my guitar, letting my
feelings out;...well I wrote this song this way on a friday night in October.
The song's called "waiting FØR You".
Take a chance,
search your heart,
and you will know
SHE is the one
waiting FØR You
Bye,
Mark
Hei. This is our Fans own private space here.
We owe everything to you, so a guestbook is the least

The actual guestbook is the same one we had on our
previous page. We are cleaning it up a bit, so if you can't find your message
any more don't be upset, send us a new one!

Baby James Valantine is the voice
of the band. The emotions you get listening to him singing made more
than one faint during a performance. Like that time at Roskilde festival...
He is also the bass player in Fedge.

Mark NewCastle is a new memeber
in the Group. Joining during July 1999 he brought a touch of mediterranean
sundance to the Band. He plays his axe since he's born and he is good ...ohhh so good...

Joaquin is called 'el toro' for his
CALIENTE temperamento. High skilled drummer and proficient songwriter,
he is the perfect drum machine for the band.

We presume that by now you'll be wondering:
"Ok, cool page, nice pictures...but you are a band, where's the music?"
Here you are...! Three of our best songs are coming...
Just some infos first...
The Fedge story starts on summer 1995 playing cover songs for fun.
The band has since the beginning consisted of three members: Alan Scott, Joakim
Roti Ballesteros, Ole-Kristian Larsen. All of we had backrounds from other
local bands.
The first great breakthrough for us was when we found a place to rehearse.
The band held their first concert after just six rehearsals, at the local theatre.
The set-list consisted of:
"Buddy Holly" by Weezer
"I don't care"
"Pea"by The Red Hot Chili Peppers
"Billy the fourth"
The concert was well recieved by the audience and the local newspaper, and this
inspired Fedge to continue rehearsing.
Next
We kept on writing new songs for a long time, and the next appearence was
a year later, in the local society hall.
Unfortunately, this concert was not as successful as the first one; the sound
sucked, and the monitors did not work.
We did not let our ambitions and hopes be destroied by this, and only
a month later we participated in a rock contest at Rockefeller Music Hall
in Oslo.
Two weeks later we held another concert under a pouring rain and we had to quit
after only two songs because of a technical failure.
Later that day the local Music Academy asked us if we wanted to hold
an intimate concert in connection with the Academy's annual summer barbeque
party.
We accepted, and made such a success, it had to play a number of songs
twice.
Next
In the summer of 1997, our inspiration was enormous, and we produced
a great number of good songs in this period.
During the fall we recorded a demo-tape in studio.
In October we held two successful concerts: one at the Club 3 Arena in
Asker, our hometown, and two weeks later in Musikkflekken Hall at the
BROCK-festival in Baerum.
Since then we have been involved in other minor music projects
in addition to the regular band rehearsals. In all of this period the band has
been very productive in making new songs, and it seems as if we found
our genre; PORN-ROCK.
We went in studio in March 1998 and recorded a 5 track promo- album,
titled "Lounge Of Love". We played live in concert three times in June. The
most important gig we held was at Kalvøya in Norway, in front of more than 400
people. The new songs, including "Disco Devil", got good response from the audience.
Next
In july 1999 Ole left the band, due to some impredictable businesses showing
up unexpected. His spirit and his sounds will always be a part of us.
We had to choose a new member, someone who could continue the great work of
Ole; after a while we found the right guy: Marco Toschi.
As of January 2000 we keep on writing songs, we are performing with success
playing Police cover songs in Oslo and Bærum.
Have a look at our Gigs page if you want to
come and visit us!
Yours Forever....
Fedge
