Xybor & the Cosmonauts cyberBio

Xybor and the Cosmonauts are intergallactic glick and fleegers (rock and rollers). We come from the planet Kaelon in the Andromeda galaxy. We are on an intergalactic tour and came to Prazoloog (Earth) to check out the music scene here (two droobgongs way up!!).

We are:

Xybor - zingstok (vocals)

Gleek - quaznip (guitar)

Zoink - blazergonk (bass)

Fizzgig - kapongdong (percussion)

Pakadook - deebledoip (keyboards and unearthly sounds)

People ask where we got the band name. Xybor thought it up. We were going to call it Gleek (me) and the guys and the girl, but he said he would not sing anymore if we did not use his name. And you know how hard it is to find singers. Oye. He's a bit of a gakkle floorg (prima donna), but basically a nice glork.

Did you know we were actually the band in the original Zataar Warzip movie, where Duke Babbledoker fought with ObtusWanaWowo (I was playing the feezeldong).

We are currently on tour in Serginok Quadrant 6, but will be back on earth in December. Our manager (Baphod Beeblebronx) is booking our gigs. I'll let you know where we are playing.

We have been playing together for five zlingdorks. I met Xybor in jabanuz (college); we were both art students studying blonks, blorks and the ensuing chaos. We began collaborating on music and playing in queffan dooglegorks. Zoink and Fizzgig began hanging out, and Pakadook joined when Fizzgig couldn't play the deebledoip anymore with his third foot (kept losing his balance). Since then we have been touring, writing music, and living the lives of poor glack & quark stars.

Our influences are Flink Poyd, the Beat Lips, Dyles Mavis, Avid Owie, Medeski Martin Wood (this guy is wayyy out there), Chas Dingus.

For equipment, we use whatever works . . . blooks, bloorks, klingernerfs. I even used a Flender Helemaster on a lead once (if you can believe that). It sounded like two gaffledwonks in heat, but worked in the song (Watching the Watchers).
