I find this a bit bizarre that five kids who met in day-care became best friends and at 10 years old formed a Rock’n’Roll band. At their age they are influenced by AC/DC, Paul Mc McCartney and Randy Rhodes, this seems a little off. Clearly their parents had to be heavily into Rock’n’Roll or none of these kids would know who AC/DC is, much less The Beatles. Formerly known as The Thrashers they recorded a 10 track debut album with the legendary producer Sylvia Massy. The band consists of brothers: Nick and Chris Rigling, Geddy Franco, Charley Rutledge and Brandon Lurie. I only heard a few songs by these boys, and if you didn’t see a video you would have not known that they are ten years old. I heard a cut called “Rock me Roxy” and I have to admit that these little monsters rock. This took years of preparation. Most Ten year old boys have no idea nor do they care about performing at this magnitude. They just played the Whiskey a go-go in Hollywood and I’m sure they will tour throughout the summer. This was definitely well thought out by their parents, and I hope this is what these boys want to do with the rest of their lives, however I hope their education takes the forefront. There’s clear talent there that should be cultivated and I just hope their lights don’t burn out way before their time.
