Transcript from an Interview with Pukin' Monkeys
Pukin' Monkeys is a happy punkband from Lot, Belgium.
They seriously kick ass and everybody else tries to compete with them (in which they definitely do not succeed).
Pukin' Monkeys are also by far the coolest people I've ever seen (right after Buffalo Bill and George W. Bush, that is). As you see, they make an excellent raison to move to Belgium.
Interviews with the band are only possible after an appointment and a reasonable cash fee!
Thank you very much.
Why this name?
Sex met bejaarde karakollen !
(Sex with senior snails)
Do you play live?
We can't actually play live. We have made an extraordinary tape with music maker pro 2 and we just pretend we play music. The only thing you need to book us is a CD player! (Great, isn't it)
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
We love BMG music Belgium.
We're also going to compete in the "World Idol 2069" competition so check it out!
Band History:
It started a long long time ago in 2000 when Tom bought a guitar. Together with "his friend" Tim they decided to found a band. It was great fun, but we didn't make much music (we sucked big time).
Only 2 years later things got serious. We decided to "go for it" and we started rehearsing with our first line-up: Tom, Tim, Bregt and Robin. For our second gig we had to find a bass player to replace Robin, and that's how Jan became a Pukin' Monkeys. Our drummer Bregt also left us and we found Juin to take over the drums.
Our first home made demo was recorded with this line-up in January of 2004. We played some time with two guitars but we're back to 4 monkeys now!
The raison why we make music? It's a nice way to spend your time and to have fun with friends, playing shows and going to see other bands is really awesome, punk music fukin' rules and last but not least: we all love to do this!
Peace and Love (some bananas & some monkeykisses too)
Tom
Favorite spot?
Halle city
Equipment used:
We use pro-material such as Jack & Danny guitars which are very expensive German things.
Anything else...?
I think we need a strong leader in these dangerous times where terrorism is a great treath for our civilisation. Let's vote for Bush! He's our hero, and we also want to get rich by bombing poor countries.
