"I saw Roger playing with The Tommyknockers in '95 or so, and thought he was great. After the show, I approached him to offer him a spot in the Fuzztones. It so happened that he was preparing to leave L.A. to move back to St. Louis, and had to decline. Ten years later I had the chance to renew the offer, and luckily he accepted".

- Rudi Protrudi

Roger made his debut as a Fuzztone on the European Absinth Tour of 2005
