WELCOME TO MARCO DE GROOT!
After a period
of auditions for a new drummer we happily announce
that:
Marco de
Groot
is our new drummer!

After the
audition Stefan, Arno and Ferry had the right
feeling about Marco. Not only his personalty fits
the band but his drumming skills were impressive.
Stefan said:"I
only gave an ryhtmn example by means of my hands and
feet and he
played it right away".
Arno said:"When we played rearviewmirror and
Morass you felt the energy like on stage".
Ferry said:"Although you had to look under the
cymbals because of the big drumkit we grooved and
were looking at each other at the same time"
More news
like a biography of Marco, a bandphoto and coming
concerts will be presented very soon !
We are
Rockband Bizar: Marco, Stefan, Arno and Ferry.

Verslag van Monsterpop 2006
Bizar
heeft de eer het toernooi te openen. Als
intro speelt de gitarist voor de gelegenheid
het deuntje van het Wilhelmus. Bij de eerste
band valt op dat de gitarist en de bassist
de show stelen. Dit is het eerste optreden
in deze formatie, maar vast niet hun eerste
optreden. En wat betreft de jury ook niet
hun laatste: uiteindelijk vallen ze met een
vierde plek net buiten de prijzen. Vaak is
het nog niet zo druk aan het begin van een
dergelijke dag/avond, maar na verloop van
het eerste optreden is Bondi Beach als zo
goed als gevuld.
