They previously played at Grand Illu sions and last Halloween at W.O.W Hall with X as their supporting act. “That was a great show,” says Frank Zin cavage, bass guitar player lyall and Zincavage met at the San Francisco Art Institute when lyall was creating a video soundtrack as a senior thesis. According to Zincavage, they really had no intention of becoming a hand. They recorded an album, "It's a Condition” for 415 Records, a San Francisco independent label. The line-up, lyall, Zincavage, Benjamin Bossi on "Jazz" saxophone, Peter Wood on lead guitar and Larry Carter on drums, solidified on the “It’s a Condition" tour The release of "Never Say Never" brought Romeo Void the national attention they deserved ‘ Never Say Never”, produced by Ric Ocasek of the Cars, originally appeared on a 4-track EP — but has since been remixed and is included in Romeo Void's latest album “Benefactor.” "Never Say Never" is indicative of Romeo Void's attitude They are romantic nihilists, lyall sings of the wrecked Romeos and jaded Juliets all in faded denim and dreaming of lace They rock their fantasy Casbah in a passion play seeking fulfillment Eventually they realize the essential futility of the heart and the enormity of lust Lust that wears the glare of a calm psychopath ‘‘I might like you better if we slept together . " lyall delivers the lyrics with a distracted emphasis, while Wood's guitar sounds scratchy, a persistent itch to the ear and feet But the strength of Romeo Void lies in the integrated sounds of Bossi’s saxophone, Carter’s drums and Zincavage's relentless bass. It's an urban sound that is more than slightly infectious Eugene is an important stop in Romeo Void's tour schedule. "We did one Northwest run just a couple of weeks ago and now we re running back through some of the colleges,” says Zincavage. Zincavage is not so sure about the response they’ll receive in England "I’m never sure about the English; they re so splintered and things change from week to week so radically there ” This may be the last time a Eugene audience can see Romeo Void in a ballroom The venues will no doubt change to larger halls for this band You’ll hear... If you didn’t get your jeans from the Buffalo, you got skunked. Why???
