Baltimore Rocks -- Blast From The Past

Hi, just stumbled across this thread.

 

Holy shit, this thread brings back memories of me being fifteen and hanging out at The Rage with OSP, Rumblestreet, Shock LaRue, Gunga Din and a bunch of others before I started playing music myself in the early to mid nineties.

I'm Jay, currently live in Harrisburg PA and originally from B-more. I look forward to more stuff to make me realize that my life is no where close to being as fun as it was back then. 

Especially the music scenes...

OVERVIEW
The members of Baltimore, Maryland band DAGGER, vocalist Rob Olds, guitar duel Paul Leopardi and John Lejnar with bassist Phil Mahoney and drummer Barry Moss came together in the winter of 1987. They would quickly start making waves on their local club circuit.

In 1989 the band enter the studio to lay down 6-tracks for an EP titled “Dream Stealer” that would be entirely self-produced and released by the band. The release would only help the band’s reputation grow as it out sale major releases in local record stores. Along with their growing live audiences and radio play across the country, things were only looking up for DAGGER.
...Then the 90s happened.

Three-fourths of the band would continue on into the next decade under the new name HIGH BRIDGE and with a slight direction change in sound that still showed where the band originally came from. By the end of the decade, HIGH BRIDGE would release their debut album “The Gift” that would see little to no distribution and is now extremely difficult to find.

It's great listening to this stuff again, all I have left is an Orange Seed Parade demo and a Reprobates EP, both on cassette.

Speaking of the Reprobates, I guess the set designer/dresser of the movie Disturbia was from Baltimore. There are a bunch of their flyers in the main character's bedroom.

Hey all! Saw something here about some “Mona Lisa” interests. I’m Ricky Thomas, the singer of that band. There are very few copies of the first record, “Grounded For Life”, out there but they do exist. A great friend of the band by the name of Russ Nussman is the go to guy. I don’t have his private email off hand but he can be found on Facebook. Hope that helps. Thanks all for keeping it alive! R.T
