Formed in 1986 in Sunnyvale, California, No Use for a Name was a punk rock group
founded by guitarist Chris Dodge, bassist Steve Papoutsis, and drummer Rory
Koff. The group then brought in two lead singers – John Meyer and Ramon Gras –
before Chris Dodge left (he’d return for two more stints with the band) and was
replaced by guitarist Tony Sly in 1987. The addition of Sly to the line-up
changed the course of the band’s history. With Koff and Sly serving as the
longest serving members of No Use for a Name, the group went through nearly 15
members before their dissolution in 2012....
