About 10 years ago in a small village within the old industrial coal and steel district of Germany known as "Der Pott" the forces of light and sound first joined in a wild attempt to outwit the seemingly meaningless string of coincidences which had brought them together in a 9th grade Gymnasium. In an outburst of sudden wonder & astonishment merchandising catalogues were devised on scrap paper. Fans recruited. Cds burnt. Microphones mangled. And puns intended in a frequency far higher than the vibration of conventionally issued occasions to rejoice. The pact was sealed. Its course irreversible. The skies were shrouding in colorful confusions, the boredom punctured and Flash & Thunder roamed the earth until they found you reading this line.
