Tell us about your music and tell us what’s new!
88/89 started outside Vancouver
Lots of turntable and then a mixer
Mom records and performs

PUCK (Previously Unknown Canadian Kids)...99
Then Japan the first time. Recording engineering school and met wife (who had come to Canada….I think, not sure the timeline 100%).
Cheese came in 2003 and pretty much stayed.
2008 came back full time
D.O.A. Sudden Death Records
Sudden Death Records Volume 2
Mp3.com of Japan was big, but mostly homemade CD-R
blocSonic rahrahrah!
Long John from Vancouver Island...and played hockey
Fuck Gary Bettmen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQwJ-tfIrxw
Or http://www.slacker.com/song/puck/fuck-gary-bettman for non-live
The Record, which was like Billboard in Canada: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Record_%28magazine%29
Things going well, so move to Japan!
P.U.C.K. has had plenty of spin-offs
Write some raps! A lot of first-time rappers, but people that knew how to play instruments
7-piece band!
One up on Phil Collins...free style rap and drumming!
2000-01 live band thing. January 2001 was brewing time for live band. Came back 11 months later. Pot-C coming back
Last show was 2011 when they were all in Vancouver. Trying to do it again this summer.
A whole roast chicken!
No slurpees! No nachos or hot dogs. Hot dogs in bags!
No grand slam at Denny’s
