I was but an impressionable lad growing up in Thousand Oaks, Ca. My best friends of Jim Barnett and Wade Henton lived over on Somerset Circle. On their culdesac was another kid, a year older than me, named Jim Craft. Now that kid had an older brother named Tom Craft, and on the corner of the street was another guy named Chuck Johnson. There was also this other kid named Macko.
They were in this band called Marut with Wally Stoltze. I'm not too reminiscent about the details of the band members. I know that Spider Web was in Streetnoise, but I think that another member of Marut was YOU.
When I was 16 years old I jumped into the back of a pickup truck and headed down to gigs at the Troubadour and Starwood to watch Marut play. It was an inspirational moment. Enough the where me and some of my friends worked in pizza restaurants and as delivery kids for a pharmacy in order to save money and start our own band. We called ourselves The Ushers (later became The Users after my brother passed away www.theusers.net)
For some odd reason I googled up Wally Stolze and I found this site. Holy cow, what a flashback to all those incredibly positive experiences of years gone by. I'll never forget the thrill of a time in the mid 90's I was at a jam night with this guy, who complemented me to no end on my abilities. As it turned out, it was Spider Webb and I dove into stories of traveling from party to party to watch whatever band he was in. I'm going to have to link this site.
Yea Mike, I was playing music again with Wally in Marut (77-78), along with Tom Craft on lead guitar, Jeff Taylor on bass, Chuck Johnson and Brian Engel on drums... great times n' T.O. support playin' in those L.A. clubs.
We probably jammed together back then as well.
Cheers.
