2002

In 2002 things started to take on a more solid shape. SunsetStar became the hangout and meeting point of the local Rock'n' Roll scene. People liked the whole concept and started spreading the word. One person would tell ten people and ten people would tell one hundred people. Suddenly even people from Vienna and other parts of Austria started to visit Graz on weekends to buy their outfits from SunsetStar, small but unique shop. At the time, he also started his SunsetStar online shop, open 24 hours a day. But something was missing. There was no place in Graz to get Rock'n'Roll, Punk or Hardcore records. So it was absolutely essential to add a record section to the shop, which drew even more attention.

2004

In 2004 SunsetStar was ready to improve itself. Therefore, a bigger salesfloor was badly needed. They also started to organise more shows and events in Graz. SunsetStar soon was well known for quality Rock'n'Roll concerts and parties. They also started to spread their network on an international level. They went to European business events and came home with new brands and trends to satisfy their customers at home.

2007

In 2007 everything was growing at a comfy level. The shops in Graz and Budapest developed well and Gerry and Gazzy also started their very own wholesale departement for Heartbreaker Fashion, USA. But at the end of the year Gerry and Gazzy decided to end their business relationship. Gazzy went out of the fashion business and focused on other things. They achieved a lot together and ended their business relationship without any discrepancies. It started on the basis of friendship and ended like that. Gerry moved on alone and led SunsetStar savely into 2008.

2009

A very important year for Gerry and Steve. Trends come and go very fast nowadays. The year of the worldwide economy crisis was the right time to say "LET'S DO IT." Expansion is always a good thing when everyone speaks about going down. So they sent out their longtime friend and die-hard rocker / biker, Herb, to open a SunsetStar store in Berlin, Germany. But that wasn’t enough. They brought in even more new brands and expanded their headquarter in Graz to open up an advanced SunsetStar shop in October 2009. Oh yeah... and Gerry bought a house and got a new cat...

	SunsetStar History

	2001 Customers like and appreciate the story and work ethic behind SunsetStar. It all started in 2001 straight out of the local Punk Rock Scene. Gerry, former drummer of the Austrian Hardcore Punk Band Bounz The Ball and his mate Gazzy thought it might be great to have a lifestyle fashion shop in their hometown, Graz , Austria. The idea was simple: "Let's bring subcultural lifestyle fashion and trends straight to our customers." The first SunsetStar shop opened its doors in December 2001 on Kaiser-Franz-Josef-Kai in Graz focussing on Rockabilly fashion and lifestyle. This first location became the preferred hangout for Gerry's Hardcore and Punk Rock friends. Very D.I.Y., Gerry and Gazzy started their own story. SunsetStar was born.
