The Official DNR Story, read it before Channel 5 get their hands on it. Dave and Daniel were playing in a school covers band called Egotrip with Jim Lee (The Aforementioned). After 2 years, Egotrip parted ways and then in February '01 Dave and Daniel joined forces once again to write new songs and found Jay as their permanent drummer, DNR was born. After 2 consecutive 6 hour practises they had recorded a rough 8 track cassette. The songs had potential but poor recording ruined the overall feel. An intimate gig in a back sitting room in February '01 debuted DNR to the world, well... 8 people. After a few more gigs at schools and community halls DNR improved greatley. A debut gig at 204 in April '02, followed by JAMFEST cemented their position as a great live band. More gigs followed, including in a gig at the Glasgow Cathouse for Twisted Ape. They then went on to play at the Cathouse many more times, then Strawberry Fields more times again, 13th Note club had them and then they invaded Dundee. After much more gigs the band took a couple of months off from gigging to concentrate on not failing exams, in the meantime they also recorded 14 tracks which all appeared on the album Code:333. Some shops still sell it. Unfortunatley relations in the band were getting stressed, we wont put the details here, but in the end Jay decided to call it a day with DNR.  He played his last gig with the band at a House party in the west end of Glasgow, in true Op Ivy fashion.  Ended the show with a equpiment smashing. It did not take the band long to fill the drum stool again with the mighty Puggs, also known as Stephen Clark. After 2 months of hard practise DNR debuted the new lineup and sound at the Connellies Halloween Party to good reviews. More gigs are planned and an EP is in the works.
