  • G’day ROCKDOGZ!!!!


    In case you haven't noticed, Rollerball is at the moment in mothballs. No Rock Fans, this is not necessarily the end for the "DrabFour" but I am living in Switzerland & with rest of the outfit spread over south east Queensland Australia, it makes things a little tricky. We have no plans to tour or record in the near future.

    What we will have for you soon is a new release containing rare & previously unreleased tracks. In the meantime checkout our new Online Store for all our cds and shirts.
