my father steve rondo was their manager
I saw Geeza at the Armidale University hall back in 1977.They supported TMG.They were good and they had a rubber guitar that the lead singer swung around in green strob lights in a solo.It was cool to a country kid who was only just seeing live bands.I didnt hear them after that,but Geeza were a great loud rock band who really tried to bring a bit of showmanship to a crowd.what happened to the rubber guitar?
I knew Steve Rondo, Bill Lancaster,Gabriel and Terry since 1975 until now..I still have contact with Gabby from time to time..
gabby has a lovely wife and family now he seems so settled...I hear Terry Died a couple of years ago...He was a cool guy..I knew them from Paradise Gardens out at Cattai. Jean F Dad was the manager there, they hired Geeza back then Gabby was with Karen...now he has toni....
Hi thanks for the Geeza LP, It's brilliant, I'd never heard of them ... I found a website offering some Geeza vinyl, the one you want: "Endangered Species" but they want a gazillion dollars for it ...

Geeza played one lunchtime at our school (Manly Boys HS)in 1976? - they were great. I think the premise was that bone of them was a former student. Regards,Greg Rogan.
Terry is not dead and is still rocking!!!

In 2010 Terry was unsuccessful in convincing the original band members to reunite for a tour. However they did give their approval and full support for Terry to take the songs and Band name on the road with a couple of ring ins.
Looking like they'll be ready to hit the road in 2012.
