Trixter

Trixter is an American hard rock band from Paramus, New Jersey. The band achieved major success in the early 1990s but disbanded for several years as glam metal lost mainstream popularity. The most recent lineup reunited in 2008 to tour and record new material.

Career

Early years

Trixter was formed in 1983 by Paramus, New Jersey natives Steve Brown, and Pete Loran. By 1986 Trixter was a constant fixture on the concert scene, quickly growing a tremendous fan base. By 1987 Trixter was playing with acts like Kix and Skid Row and found themselves being courted by several major record labels. In 1988, Trixter began recording at legendary Bear Tracks Studios in New York with engineer Nelson Ayers, most notable for recording Guns N' Roses "Appetite For Destruction", on what was intended to become their first studio album. But in November 1988, a screwed up move replaced bassist Douglas Cowie (for being too tall for the band's look) with local bassist PJ Farley. In May 1989 the band landed a deal with Mechanic/MCA Records.

    by: David Lee Roth

    Time rools on
    n' that's as it should be
    Here and gone
    Seems to move so quickly
    Man, we was happy
    In our restless hearts
    It was heaven Right here on earth
    Yeah, we were lauthin'
    As we reached for the stars
    And we had some
    For what it was worth

    Ahh, the crazy things we used to do
    Sure, we was acting like a couple of kids
    Good to remember
    You know that it is
    I still feel it
    Like the sun on my skin
    Maybe that's better
    Cause these are good times
    Damn good tiemes
    Talkin' about good times
    Damn good times
    So it's one for the money
    But that don't make the show
    Count to three and I'll be ready
    To follow that road (yes I will)
    I see it comin'
    Yeah, and this one is outs
    We got heaven right here on Earth
    Ain't nothin' like it
    When you're reachin' for stars
    And you grab one
    For what it is worth
    You can tell 'em
    We'll be having good times
    Damn good times
    I'm talkin' good times (yessir)
