Brad Rees who played drums is next to Eric (second from left) in the photo above. This was at John Barley's on Cordova St gastown. Eric was only one of legal age. The poster from the Bumper's gig was DOAs first time in Surrey (Bumpers was an "all-ages" club with rockers on one side and "wavers" on the other). AOT rocked it and was a super fun night. Yeah the band was from Surrey / Whalley. Kamel lived near 96th and 124th st. Dan Walters who contrib'd the above did Terminally Stupid fanzine and i an archivist of Van punk/hardcore/whatever history. Now plays in Christ Air. I know Eric does photography and i think a CiTR show. Brad (drummer) was my best pal and great musician. I also make VOM fanzine with Kamel in 84-85 before i moved away.
