| ABOUT DTK |
Founded the summer of 2006, DTK members Greg Mallon, formerly of modern rock and metal band
Buck-it,Marc Dinsmore and Rick Frantz formerly of an 80's metal band Chaos, and former DTK
Member Nick Forsyth, formerly of Hardcore band Neocracy had a vision to play a mix of tunes that
was unheard of and voided by the local scene at the time. Mallon was craving to play the fun tunes of the
80s to present, Rick was craving the Metal Songs, Marc was craving the ability to choose whatever
songs that came to mind, and Nick was looking to go a more classic direction , way apart from his
hardcore roots.
We debuted with a setlist from Ted Nuget, Georgia Satellites, New Kids on The Block, Stevie Wonder,
an 80's hairband medley to Janes Addiction, Smashing Pumpkins, Blink 182, Good Charlotte, Live ,
Sublime to Pantera, NIN, Tool, Rage, Korn, and System Of a Down. We did not debut to the glory day
crowds of Buck-it and Chaos, like we had hoped of using our old names to gain some familiar faces in a
hurry without paying our dues. The crowds were great, but nothing like the previous years in comparison
to sizes. Each show we played was like a roller coaster of up and downs, crowd numbers and musically.
Despite the ups and downs, the new sound and statement of a new mix was still being talked about. Good
or bad , we were still being talked about.
During the late spring of 2007 Nick left for school, and we hit the jack pot when we picked up Casey
Zimmerman, formerly of Arson Inc, along side the road when his tractor broke down in Johnsonburg,
not really, but we did pick up a perfect addition to the personality bond, along with being an incredible
drummer.
We have always been strong in our home towns of DuBois and Clearfield with crowds and friends, but
we always lacked the ability of getting our name out in the Elk County Area, Since we have joined up
with Casey our musical bond not only keeps getting better with everyshow, But the list of friends that we
keep meeting from week to week from Elk County to the Clearfield County , just keeps growing out of
control. It has been a great experience, DTK cannot thank you all enough, your support, party abilitys,
and you comments has been what keeps the DTK regime rolling every week. Rock it up!
