I just recently heard about this group, Gongzilla. I did a search on this site and didn't find anything on them. The rock/fusion flavor is really cool. Check out the Deagan Aurora he's playing, really nice ax.

Benoit Moerlen!

Hey Indiana,
Yes of course I did! Well in fact the vibist of this group is a member here: Benoit Moerlen first played in his borthers' band "GONG", mainly in the 70th and early 80th (am I wrong Benoit?). To my knowledge Benoit created Gonzila afterwards.
Please Benoit, come over and tell us some more... and accurate story! :o)
Oh, I forgot, I met Benoit together with Illya Amar last year (both very nice guys!). Here is a picture we took in front of the Invalides Dome in Paris (my favorite place to post pictures with vibist who come and visit me at my lunch break! ;-): www.vibesworkshop.com/node/9056/
For info on the band from the site you'll find some stuff here: http://www.vibesworkshop.com/search/node/gongzilla
