Zapato 3

The original members included Javier Avellaneda (leading voice), Fernando Batoni (bass), Pedro Romero (guitar), and Ernesto Rodríguez (drums).

Pass this point the group had advertised themselves as a three men band, formed by Fernando Batoni (bass), Javier Avellaneda (voice) and Álvaro Segura (guitars).

Changes were not over: by late 1988, Javier Avellaneda left the band to have Carlos Segura take over the vocal role and announced the re-incorporation of Diego Márquez in the drums.

By 1994 their new release "Separación" brought new changes with Diego Marquez leaving the band, being substituted by Rafael Cadavieco and also the incorporation of Jaime Verdague in keyboards.

In 1999 the group's biography was edited, written by Eugenio Miranda by the title: "Zapato 3: Una Fantastica Historia de Amor y Aventura", some of their CDs can be found in websites such as eBay, Amazon.com, CD Now, Universe.com, among others.

In an interview conducted that day, October 10, 2010, on the radio station La Mega 107.3 FM during the Fabricado Acá show, Fernando Batoni, Rafael Cadavieco, Diego Márquez, Álvaro Segura and Jaime Verdaguer announced that they had indeed a tour planned for those dates, but that the proposal that was made in the end did not convince.

A year later, keyboardist Jaime Verdaguer announced the "unavoidable return" through the band's official Twitter, confirming the negotiations on a national tour for 2012.

As a result of the great success of the concert, they confirmed through the official page and the Facebook and Twitter accounts the national tour called The Last Crusade , started on July 13 in Maracaibo.
