Punk rock band 30footFALL went through frequent lineup changes before settling down to its current lineup of singer Butch, drummer Brian, bassist Rubio, and guitarist Jason. Initially the band consisted of vocalist Billy, bassist Jeff, guitarist Tony Avitia, and Rubio on drums. Rubio — the one constant from the start — stayed, while the singer and guitarist went on to work with the band I-45. By the band’s second gig, Billy was out and Butch was in as vocalist. Bassist Jeff lasted slightly longer, but after three gigs he was a goner and Mitch stepped in to take over his duties. With this interim lineup, 30footFALL put together a pair of cassettes, which were released by Broken Note Records. The lineup was in for another shake up, however, when bassist Mitch wed and left the Houston area to settle in New Mexico. With the band in need of a new bass player, Rubio gave up his spot on the drums to fill the position. The former drummer for the Houston band Fortress, Damon, came on board next. The group started to play out in cities that included Dallas, Austin, and San Antonio. During this period 30footFALL put out a 7”, Elementary School Love, and Yo Mama’s Records issued 500 copies. The band’s lineup changed yet again by the close of 1994, when guitarist Avitia dropped out. The band played each of its next two shows with a different guitarist, both of whom had worked previously with the group I End Result. The first guitarist was P-Nut. He was followed by Chris, who ended up staying a bit longer. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
