Well smart guy. The music was metal but while metalheads at the time had theyre hair all poofy and stood there flickin their hair around, Duncan flailed like a madman, hair dyed black and was the first person I had ever seen with nipples peirced. Thats pretty fuckin punk for 1989. Totally against the grain with plenty of shock value. While he may not be the punkest, he eminates punk. So if you need to have a mohawk or an anarchy shirt to be punk someone had better tell Jerry A from Poison Idea that they are indeed not the kings of punk . I for one would like to see that day.... - Thu, 5 Dec 2002 7:43pm
Pig Champion "A definition of punk rock is��there is no definition of punk rock. But the
one thing that I do know about punk rock, is there is no place for elitists.
For those of you who don�t know what an elitist is, its someone who thinks
they are better than someone else, or in this case a punk who thinks he or
she is more punk than someone else. This is not a punk rock ideal, actually,
saying that you are more punk than someone else makes you not punk at all
when it comes down to it." - Thu, 5 Dec 2002 7:59pm
Dan Yikes! Someone has his panties in a knot. I was asking a sincere question, seeing as I've never heard of karion. I really am curious as to who everyone thinks the most punk singer to come out of VICTORIA is. - Thu, 5 Dec 2002 8:00pm
Dan It's just a question. it's for fun, don;t aswer it if you are going to get uptight, or maybe you are pissed off because nobody mentioned your name. HUH? - Thu, 5 Dec 2002 8:06pm

First of all I would love to hear what you think is punk
Second, "Now, is Karrion a punk or metal band, wreaker?" is NOT just asking a question. And if you didnt want an answer then why did you ask.
Third, you obviously dont know me because I would hardly pass nor would try to pass myself off as punk
Four, my panties are my business (even if they are your girlfriend's. say hi for me) - Thu, 5 Dec 2002 8:13pm
Dan I think a lot of things are punk, and as for my question I was curious as to wether it was punk or metal. That's all. You read into it differently than was intended. I really do want to know what everyones opinions are. YOu guys obviously just want to fight. I'm not into it. Sorry. - Thu, 5 Dec 2002 8:20pm

Dan Stop being so obviously threatened by anyone who mentions the word punk. Get a fucking clue. I'll just answer my own question. hmm..... who is the most punk singer? I would have to say hands down, ME! - Thu, 5 Dec 2002 8:46pm

Anonymous li'l rob naked and rolling in glass, dropping his guitar, smuggling beers, wearing dead kittens, hangin his weaner, not being able to find the show, thinking he is in seattle and waking up on the boulevard to a view of the space needle, getting his whole band kicked off stage after 3 songs (on several occasions) getting punched by dustin during the set. I'm not sure if this is punk or just drunk, but it sure is entertaining. MWPR is the celticest frontman. - Thu, 5 Dec 2002 9:51pm

ML7Mike Personally I always thought Gymbo brought something extra to the Dayglos. Not that Murray isnt a good frontman, but Gymbo does a good job of getting up to various onstage antics to keep the crowd warm. I still remember Dayglos and ML7 at Wastelands, and there's Gymbo with his bare ass hanging out of his ripped pants, and he bends over during the set and places his asscheeks about a 1/4 inch from the bald head o the big asshole bouncer thats roughing up the mosh in front of the stage. Somebody points and the boucer turns his head and gets a facefull of ass crack. Plus the tradeoff stage insults between him and Aaron Clark were always a hoot. Anyhow, what do I know about punk. - Fri, 6 Dec 2002 1:16pm

Where is Lost Cause Bubba at these days? that angry fucker! Anyway this bubba sang for Drunktank and despite his vices was probably had the biggest heart of anyone I have ever known. Loved his punk rock, beer and garlic pizza. - Sat, 7 Dec 2002 11:06am
*GKdc Whew. Had me worried for a bit. LC Bubba moved to Van about 5 years ago. Foot operations. I don't think he's walked without a cane for 3 years.

I wish he'd move back, I miss the fucker. - Sat, 7 Dec 2002 1:29pm

What about Jode, steve, todd and Matt Nor. Whats up with those dudes? I 'see' them every once in a while? They do music still? Im pretty sure matt doesnt. - Sat, 7 Dec 2002 2:30pm
*** are vegans allowed to say fucker?
lol - Sat, 7 Dec 2002 2:31pm
*GKdc This vegan will say whatever the fuck he wants to say.

Jode has a thing in Vancouver, "Honeysuckle Serontina". I was under the impression they were being hailed as possibly the best thing since Nickelback. Or something. I saw an interview on MushMusic with them, and let me tell you, for a guy who is about 6 years younger than me...he's doing a great job of looking 40 years older than me. Ahhh, clean living....

Steve was playing with Atlas Strategic before they broke up. I think I heard he moved to Montreal. I could be wrong, I'm not super up to date on Gossip, and he isn't doing interviews on major TV networks so I can keep tabs.

And Matt Nor? Geez, he was gone before Empty really got going. I heard he was DJ'ing and drug dealing back East. But thats just hearsay, and about 5 years old to boot.

But whatever happened to Mike Walmsley? I haven't seen him since 96...

Now you're up to date.
Have fun! - Sat, 7 Dec 2002 2:48pm
