| M.L.: Voytek Bandrowski played with us a bit as second lead guitarist - he was the third Bandrowski brother, and was in the original band "Urban Fate" (played at early Frigidaire shows, among others) - alot of the key songs that Tained meat and Zombie Xterminators played were from Urban Fate. Voytek died at a young age of an anurism in the late 1980s (R.I.P.) He was as good or better a guitarist as Andi. | ||
