RIFLE TOWER WERE FORMED IN EARLY 2007, THE BRAIN CHILD OF TOMMY ROCKIT WHO THOUGHT IT WAS ABOUT TIME SOMEBODY BROUGHT BACK "REAL" ROCK N ROLL AND WITH INSPIRATIONS LIKE GUNS N ROSES, AEROSMITH, THIN LIZZY AND MOTLEY CRUE AS THE FOUNDATION TO THE SOUND, ALL TOMMY NEEDED WAS THE RIGHT MEMBERS.. AFTER A LONG SEARCH FOR THE PERFECT LEAD GUITARIST A YOUNG SHAGGY HAIRED RORY GALLAGHER SOUNDING GUY TURNED UP BY THE NAME OF DALEN.. A MIXTURE OF HIS NAME DANIEL AND THE GUITAR LEGEND EDDIE VAN HALEN. DURING THE SEARCH FOR THE MEMBERS ON A NIGHT OUT ON THE TOWN TOMMY MET THIS LONG HAIRED ENGLISH ACCENT KURT COBAIN LOOKING ROCK A BILLY BY THE NAME OF DAN.. AFTER DISCUSSION AND A TRYOUT IN "STEVES" (A GREAT FRIEND OF ALL THE BAND) RIFLE TOWER BECAME 3.. 2 GUITARS.. ALL THAT WAS NEEDED WAS BASS AND DRUMS.. WHICH BOTH CAME ON THE SAME NIGHT AS TOMMY DALEN AND DAN PLAYED A SHOW AT DUBLIN TRIPOD.. LIFELONG BEST FRIEND OF TOMMY WAYNE AGREED THAT HE'D PLAY BASS AND AS IF THINGS WHERE GOIN GREAT A DRUMMER HAD ASKED ABOUT JAMMING WITH THE BAND. AS HE SAID HE'D TRYOUT, HE CAME DOWN FOR AN AUDITION... THE BAND WERE BLOWN AWAY.. THIS PINK FLOYD SOUNDING EYES CLOSED SPEEDY PERFECT BEAT... JACKPOT!! 1 BECAME 5 AND RIFLE TOWER WERE BORN!! ONLY ONE THING LEFT TO DO!!! ROCK THE WORLD!!! |
