Damian Abraham has been many things... the singer of a critically acclaimed band, a failed VJ and food network host, one of the minds behind TV's "The Wrestlers", parent of 3... and undeniably, a punk music obsessive.Each week, he sits down and chats with an interesting person from various walks of life to find out how their world was influenced and changed by the discovery of a novelty genre that supposedly died out in 1978... PUNK!

Cool but bunk Footnotes is Patreon only now.

Subtracted one crucial star because Damian keeps calling it “The Gilman.”

Anthony Bourdain

Hey,  It’s Damian. Anthony Bourdain was someone that championed &amp; celebrated punk &amp; it’s influence. He was also someone that, for some unknown reason, championed the work that I do as well.

Here is the conversation we had that day as well as my eulogy for one of my personal heroes.  RIP Tony. Thank you for everything

So it’s speed, glue and booze. The cultural shift in England that was punk. Scotland looks better today Punk was the most wholesome and honest form of entertainment to emerge out of England in  getting “Punk’d Up” Having to pick a side hating the fantasy of music Not being the biggest Keith Moon fan. Queen: the best players but “still shit” Seeing Hawkwind at the age of 13 Drum influence: hating the band but loving the drummers Seeing Johnny and Self Abusers (pre-Simple Minds) Just getting into Zeppelin  Seeing the Stranglers the amazing Scottish scene the Rock Garden: Scotland’s Whiskey-A-Go-Go Joining the Dream Boys with Peter Capaldi Exposure: Craig as Adam Eternal Dressed up like a priest for a recording Getting into Comedy with Peter inbetween bands “It’s the DNA of everything” Liking the first half of Stop Making Sense Quitting late night Ana Hausen: the session that ended the gig the rise of English post-punk Alternative comedy. Comedy: no lugging drums, no cleaning up and no band members Drummers and Punk: the amazing connection Drummers need to shut the fuck up Working the door at the world famous Save The Robots in NY Drumming for Nico “You remind me of Iggy. You will die soon.” Iggy: the last one standing Knocking out a heckler: Violence and comedy don’t mix Getting drunk with the Clash Lars from Rancid: Therapist to those that got famous after being into punk and TONS MORE!!!!!
