The Traidmarx CD's are finally done! Don't miss our CD release party New Years Eve at Ruebins in Arnolds Park, Iowa, as this will be the official release of the CD!

The Traidmarx would like to thank Terry and Miles from Bob's Drive-In in LeMars for surprising them with a great loose-meat dinner!! You are both truly two of our best fans!!
What a great night at Ruebin's on June 17th! The place was rockin' all night long! The Traidmarx would like to thank Don Schossow of the Senders (2005 inductees) for joining them onstage singing "Why Me?" It's always fun to share the stage with fellow rockers!
Traidmarx News!!
August 2006
What a great 3 nights of Rock n' Roll! Thursday night there were 840 people attending the Rock the Roof concert, and both Friday and Saturday night there were lines to get into Ruebins! Thursday there were 10 members of the Traidmarx on stage:the regulars, and also Scott Pederson from Florida (an original member), who hasn't played with the band for 5 years, Justin Rusk, son of drummer Jim Rusk, and Noah Horsman, son of Tim Horsman. Friday and Saturday, Scott once again joined the band, singing and playing tenor sax. Also joining the band was Jimmy Hentges, owner of Ruebins, Jimmy really brought the house down! He has been practicing his trombone, and was very excited to jump onstage for a few songs...look for Jimmy to play with the band in the future....he's hooked! Also in attendance was Wally Morris' little sister Beth! It was great for the guys to see her after all those years! Hope to see you again sometime, Beth!
A big thank you to all of the fans who made our summer so much fun!! The Traidmarx love playing around the Lakes, and are already looking forward to next summer! Until then, keep checking our schedule, maybe you can catch up with up at one of our next gigs!!
