Forum Overview :: S.T.A.L.K.E.R. :: Dovetail Joint (as written by someone who watched too much VH1 Behind the Music)

[quote name="WITTGENSTEIN"][quote]Dovetail Joint's first show was in Chicago at the Vic Theater on August 14, 1992. The band's lineup was quite different then, but the pieces of the puzzle were there. Chuck Gladfelter (guitar, vocals), Joe Dapier (drums), and Solomon Snyder (bass) were on stage and Robert Byrne was in the audience seeing them for the first time.[/quote] [quote]Robert auditioned after, as legend has it, losing a bet. The band was in the middle of writing songs for a future recording and Robert added the missing element. It didn't take them long to start playing out locally.[/quote] [quote]As happy as Dovetail Joint was for their good friends, they needed a new bass player. They felt down on their luck after twice being so close to landing a deal. Fortunately, their great friend Tallarida offered to fill in on bass. Before long they started to generate new interest.[/quote] [quote]On October 1, 2001, Joe stepped away from the Dovetail Joint he had helped to build.[/quote] [quote]At the close of 2002, the desire to work towards something new brought an end to Dovetail Joint.[/quote][/quote]
