Street Drum Corps is a punk rock percussion band that was started in April 2004 by Bobby Alt (S.T.U.N., Faculty X), Adam Alt (Circus Minor), and Frank Zummo (TheStart).

Ja und auch die zweite Vorgruppe war echt genial! Sind zwar alle (ok Lostalone auch) total durchgeknallt, aber ich finde genau deshalb passen sie auch echt zu MARS!
Ich freu mich schon total die Jungs noch mal in Berlin und München zu sehen!
