Band information
Escape formed in Gawler north of Adelaide in 1980 . BY 1984 they were based in Adelaide and developed a reputation for over-the-top live shows. Man-mountain John the Beast's barbarian outfit and guitar complete with a full set of extractors welded to it was arguably the main feature of the band's live show. The band recorded several tracks and featured in a B-Grade film but these recordings were lost. In 1986, the band’s tour bus crashed and The Beast spent three years in hospital recovering, effectively ending the group.
