We here at EddieTrunk.com, wish Campbell a very speedy and complete recovery and send our luck along to Brown on his new adventure.
keeping Vivian in my sincerest prayers and well wishes
Glad to see Trixter’s Steve Brown lending a hand to help out while Vivian is recovering, hope Vivian gets better soon!
Lol… Like he was gonna turn it down. You act like he did them a favour. I mean yeah it’s awesome he said cool. But was he really going to say anything else considering Trixter is his band???????? Let’s just be real here people. lol…
That’s a hell of a first place to gig! Wembley!
Dude it’s a half time show for a football game they’ll play a couple of songs and split. Perfect warm up gig.
Exactly. Lol. People kill me when they make so much more of s-t than it is. To be honest, outside of his family and friends… No one but the band itself is even gonna notice. Lol
Congrats to Steve!!!!! In joy the run man you deserve it! To bad it’s under bad circumstances.
I was not a fan of Trixter. But when he played guitar on TMS I was VERY impressed. I hope Vivian is doing good and gets well soon.
Agree with that whole heartedly. A competent guitarist for sure, but Trixter was not a particularly original or memorable band, besides their one Mtv hit.
Agreed. No one’s clamoring for a Trixter reunion. Good gig for him though.
Same here. Trixter meant nothing to me, but he was very impressive on TMS. If a cure for cancer is ever discovered, it will be one of the greatest achievements in history. Too bad the pharmaceutical companies will never let it happen, they make more money when you suffer long and slow.
