JOHN LYONS Staff Writer of
th
Treadmill Traekstar. a talented band
from Columbia, will be recording their Sl
live show Saturday night at the Elbow
Room. A
The four members of the band took 31
time this week to talk with The Gameoock
about the upcoming show. 8(3
Drummer Tony Lee said, "We're
putting a whole lot of effort into this one 31
show." to
Singer/guitarist Angelo Gianni said, ^
"We're recording this for our next release.
It's gonna be really well done." 1?
' Gianni and Lee are the two members
of the current band who are fully K
represented on the band's album
"Excessive Use of the Passive Voice."
Cellist Heidi Brown only played the m
acoustic tracks on the album, and bassist
Chris Grigg joined the band after it had "
been recorded. *
The band's name has been around
Columbia for about three years, but the ^
four current members have been playing w
as a cohesive unit for just over a year. ^
"Well, it kinda came out backward,"
Gianni said. "The CD was out in October
(1994), and the band wasn't solidified n
until January (1995). a(
"And that was mostly because, in the
past, members of the old Treadmill came tc
and went, and there was no solid core ^
