The story of Waste Disposal Unit begins way back in the summer of 2001 when Tobe and Pudds decided to start up a band. It seemed like a bit of a pipe dream at first as the both played guitar and they obviously needed a bass player and a drummer to complete the line-up.

Anyway the first practice seemed to go quite well and they were both suitably impressed with each others guitar playing, then before long they decided to recruit Ollie (The Cat) Jones, brother of Brett (The Rat) Jones, for bass playing duties. The first time the three of them played together the practice did not go as well as expected mainly due to some killer skunk, which left all three members almost on the floor let alone able to play any musical instruments. Anyway Tobe decided to give up the Weed and keep a clear head which seemed especially appropriate now that the search for a drummer was heating up. Then came the breakthrough that they had all been waiting for, Tim Wilfort had been successfully poached from another band and then there were four.

As they gradually practiced they built up a set list until it was almost time to gig, a few setbacks later (Tim not showing up to practice and Ollie declaring that he hates bass) they were ready to gig. Three of the so-called members (Ollie, Tobe and Tim), booked up 2 gigs whilst Pudds was soaking up the sun and pussy in the Canary Islands, one was at Mark Village Hall and the second at Biddisham Village Hall. When Jamie returned from holiday and was told of the forthcoming gigs he decided that because of the overwhelming size of the venue that there was no point practicing.

Anyway the first gig at Mark came and went and all of W.D.U agreed that it went fairly well and that a world tour was imminent. The following gig shortly after at Biddisham was not quite as successful, it is probably safe to say that W.D.U went down like a pedophile on a choir boy. Anyway they were not too bothered as this was pretty much an all metal gig where instead of singing you had to bloody roaaaaarrr!!!! Shorty after this event it came to light that Tim, was also practicing with another band, a band only known by the name of A.T.K! This came as no surprise to the guys from W.D.U as Tims commitment had definitely been flailing of recent months. The time eventually came when Toby, Ollie and Jamie could no longer stand Tims sulking and not turning up for practice. The executive decision was then taken to boot him out the band and look for a new drummer."Things have definitely been looking up lately and we hope to be gigging by the summer again, we have had a few enquiries about the position of drummer" was heard being overheard in a conversation between a caned Pudds and pissed up Tobe on new years eve. The position is still open as there is no permanent drummer as of yet, all enquiries are very welcome! The band have hardly really heard from Tim Wilfort since he was kicked out of the band, rumour has it that he recently got married to Rich Wilford in a Star Wars theme wedding. Thats right, Time Wilfort was wed to Rich Wilford in a Star Wars theme wedding dressed as 'Storm Troopers'. Bets are being placed as we speak to who's the Bitch, Butch. Anyway the band will continue to play and build up a set-list whilst they are looking for a drummer and hope to be gigging in a town near you soon.
