One of the foundations of the Vic punk scene passed away on January 29th, 2007. It was a rough time, but it is also the year my daughter was born, so there were huge ups and downs.
Jay Brown was one of those charismatic people who could make you laugh at things you know are wrong , but it just came out anyway.
He was enthusiastic about Victoria punk, and never gave that up until the very end when he finally closed his eyes for the last time. I still miss him .
As an example of his sense of humour, this is something he wrote about me on the Live Vic message board in 2005.....
a.w.t., shivs, keg killers, lid, sweathogs, mickey christ, nibbler, betty ford, the hoosegow(sometimes), yeknob, blood nasty, AK-47, the beaumonts.......... then there are the straightedge hardcore bands.... I refuse to put Goluza into that catgeory cause he still huffs glue outside at the all ages shows... - Mon, 11 Apr 2005 11:10am
