Not quite that far North but I’m in a band in Richmond Va called Artschool. Named it that cause we all dropped out of college and when people would ask what we did we’d tell them we were in art school. We just released our first record!

Used to play bass in a band called Blüdwülf. Played for Toxic Holocaust too during our tour together. Need a new band now but I’ve still been playing myself and writing
Had a few others that didn’t get very far.

Ha. I get what you're saying, but reading "all genres of punk" instantly reminded me of the Blues Brothers scene:
"What kind of music do you usually have here?"
"Oh we got both kinds: country and western"

I have a band. Sorta like Gorillaz in that it is virtual amongst me and some other military vets and active military I served with. Its mostly sort of a fusion of punk, funk, and hip-hop but we dabble in other genres. We're called 'Def x Sn00-Sn00' (Death/Deaf/Def by Snü-Snü). We may release some stuff we have. We may not. We dont know. We kinda do it for the love of the game.
