I am Burt Ollestad.  I along with Gordy Arlin, Rick Best, and Steve Bartlett formed the original band. Steve Barth later joined when Steve Bartlett left.  Gordy and myself were the next to leave and in effect the original Cheeseburger was over at that point.

There were other renditions of the band that had one of the original members in it that carried on the band name.  It was a long time ago.
