About Us

Tony Casa awoke one morning to find himself facing incredible debt. "Gosh, I probably shouldn't have taken a loan from the Mafia in order to start my dream business (a haberdashery located deep in the Appalachian forest)." Desperate and in grave danger Tony turned to the witness protection program who asked that he shave his enormous beard and do something he had never done before; sing rock and roll music on the road. As fans of Zoo Trippin' it is your job to help Tony keep his cover by attending ZT concerts and enjoying his four government appointed sleeper-cell bandmates. Your mission is simple. The stakes are high. Will you go to see ZT perform and thus save a life?
