ABOUT THE ARTIST
If you went to any punk/HC shows in Tucson from 2003-2013 chances are you saw Line of Fire.
Collin Williams, John Gimmler, Chris “Awful” Barrios, Brian Bollt, and Esteban Bailon(who took over 2nd guitar from Dan Kiss in 2005) who collectively made up the band were regularly involved in the local scene.
They played all over AZ usually in Tucson and Phoenix although they did hit Flagstaff, Sierra Vista, and Bisbee as well. They also did a Southwest tour of CA, NV, UT, CO, NM, and TX.
They’re recorded output entails a debut 3 song demo, a 7 inch, appeared on a couple comps, plus a split cd with other local band Tempers Flare.
Brian (currently in Anchorbaby, Carbon Canyon, and Lenguas Largas) and Chris were also behind the local record label Goin’ Ape Shit! records which put out a lot of local bands.
One of the most memorable shows was one they did at John’s house where they made the video for the song ‘Beer” (which can be seen on YouTube of course. Trigger Warning: don’t watch it if you have a soft spot for vacuum cleaners).
They’re coming out of retirement to play a benefit at 191 Toole for Bass Player Chris’ parents who lost their house and possessions earlier this year in a fire. So dust off your combat boots and schedule some appts with your chiropractor and I’ll see you in the pit.
