About ten years ago, Jim Reiske was the acting band leader on the TV show, Nightshift.  The constant need for good musicians willing to work Thursday nights for meager pay, forced him into a unique situation.  One that led him to phone and try virtually every musician within a 100 mile range that would answer his calls.  This was a very good thing, as it allowed him to sample the playing ability of dozens of Northern Indiana's finest musicians.  After years of Thursdays, and hitting upon a hand full of truly world class players, Jim and the gang really started to enjoy the music and company of like minded individuals.

  This led to the inevitable question, "Why don't we start a band?" A real band that plays outside the "Comedy Club" and plays music we all agree is pretty cool.
So that was the beginning and original premise.  Take the finest musicians available, and go out and play some  very well executed, and very musical renditions of classic rock favorites, and throw in some burning  jazz - fusion....

"Cause we can!"  »»

» So the first incarnation began with a couple young guys named Tim Beeler and Kent Klee.  Along with ruthless taskmaster Jim Reiske, they traversed the 'backroads' of NE Indiana in search of the ultimate audience.  Coming Close a few times, but mostly just playing some very fine music , and meeting some truly strange new friends...

 The second incarnation was with powerhouse vocalist / bassist Kenton Snyder (of Nostalgia)
and Drummer Dave Lemish (The Human Tornado).  With the aid of some formative technology and quite a lot of Guinness, they forged our way into the annals of Ft. Wayne Rock Mythology.
More than one young aspiring musician has since recounted their own experience of happening upon a "Cosmic Danger" gig , and having a permanent imprint of the tunes and events of the evening.
Even to the point of either wanting to take up an instrument, get more serious about music, or give up and sell their guitar the very next day. 

   How often have you gone out to a club, gotten inspired (or very disturbed) and seen a band you never forget??
