Madera - Local rock band
Abstract sold out Royal 8 Billiards Saturday night as
they celebrated the release of their first CD, The
Romance. Over 200 Abstract fans packed the building just
outside of Madera on Road 26 for the two and a half hour
show which featured three other bands.
Abstract drummer Jeff Delaguerra knew
it was going to be a big night when all of the pre-sale
tickets to the show sold out earlier in the week.
Everyone who purchased a pre-sale ticket received the
bands CD at the door with no extra cost.
According
to Abstract singer Leandro Aguilar the Madera band
organized when four of the members were students at
Madera High School. Four years later they are still
going strong. Starting next week, their music will be
featured on Fresno rock radio station KRZR as well as a
couple Phoenix stations.
The band will play the Royal 8
again on January 31st, then will head down to Southern
California to play a few higher profile shows. The Royal
8 has shows open to teenagers as well as adults every
Saturday night.
The album is available at
Strawberry Alarm Clock in Madera, as well as Tower
Records and several skate shops in Fresno. |
