The Story of The Phantom Four (2004 - 2014) Part 7: ////////// 2010 \\\\\\\\\\ In April 2010 the band finally supports Dick Dale during his shows in Patronaat (Haarlem) and Tivoli (Utrecht). In May the band embarks on a tour in Spain supporting The Blasters. Rudeboy remains a regular guest at performances and gradually more songs with him are being added to the mainly instrumental live sets of The Phantom Four. On July 23rd 2010 The Phantom Four & Rudeboy perform their first full live set together and since that night continue their cooperation under the name of The Phantom Four & The Arguido. Plans for the release of the new album now drastically change when they decide to release a double album; the instrumental album “Morgana” recorded November 2008 and a vocal album with The Arguido. September finds the band back in the studio to record “The Obscure EP”, a taste of the upcoming vocal album. At the same time they host the North Sea Surf Festival, the first festival in The Netherlands dedicated to surf music. During fall the band does a tryout tour with The Arguido and the loyal fanbase of The Phantom Four gets to know a totally different side of their instrumental surfrockers. Together with The Arguido they create a unique sound that combines the rawness of eighties surf punk and new wave with a modern rock sound. Many surfers, skaters, boarders, rockabillies and punks are drawn to The Phantom & The Four Arguido. The energy of the band on stage often make for wild scenes in the pit. Since his first appearance with us at Timboektoe in 2009 Rudeboy had been doing five mindblowing guest appearances performing three songs with us; Gun on My Temple, The Waiting and a cover of Teenage Kicks by Undertones. The vibe was so great we decided to add two more tracks to our set with him; Bossman and Ever Fallen in Love by The Buzzcocks. Rudeboys sixth show with us was at the Rock n Roll Circus, a great festival organised by Pacific Parc. We did those five tracks together and the response was overwhelming. It was after this night that we decided to make a full album with Rudeboy and put the already finished and long due album Morgana on the shelve for later release as a double album, putting our fans patience to the test. Heres the Bossman recording from that memorable night, the very first time we played that track at the night our guest vocalist Patrick Tilon became our future frontman. 07.11.2004 - First show @ Café De Diepte 07.11.2014 - 10th Anniversary @ Pacific Parc https://facebook/events/929735680388984
