Artist History
DFA is a rock band from Fairfax, Virginia that started in the Fall of 2000 when Joey, Jon, Matt, and Robert got together in Jon's basement to jam. The song "El Scorcho" inspired the boys to cover Weezer songs. Things really got moving when Joey moved to a sweet house on a hill, with his basement perfectly set up for practice space. Complete with wet bar, mini fridge, back door, and outdoor Jacuzzi. With the holiday season beginning, the band decided to arrange a Christmas themed concert for their first performance. Songs performed were: Angels We Have Heard on High (rock style), Weezer's Christmas song, Funky Deck the Halls, and God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen (hardcore). Since then, DFA has been practicing, and preparing for the spring season. The first hurdle to jump was equipment. Buying mics, stands, cymbals, and guitar straps, and borrowing stands and amps have all been very demanding and expensive. DFA stood for a couple things, but now it officially stands for "Don't Forget ALF." Our influences are mainly Weezer and Ozma. We have been playing together since November 2000, and have started playing a lot of local shows. Spread the word, cause dfa is on the loose. We are all college freshmen. |
