The Girl Sucks video is now playing in Citybuses all over Hong Kong...Woohooo! One time it actually played while I was on the damn bus.....it was funny because I was standing next to the TV and this old dude watching the video was confused.....he kept looking back and forth from the TV to me. HAHAHAHA. He must have thought, "This guy must be a rockstar so why the hell is he taking public transportation???" HEHEHE...
On the same note.....(please allow me to put on my serious hat here for a moment).........through the years Hardpack has gone through a lot--line up changes, financial woes, conflicts here and there--you name it, Hardpack's been through it. But through it all, I can honestly say that Hardpack has kept its "punk" rock roots to the very core. We know that recent developments have given us a"selling out" tag amongst our peers, old fans, ex girlfriends etc. I can assure you that we have not sold out....whatever the hell that means anyway. We've been around long enough to say that everything that has come to us is the result of working our asses off in the underground from day one. From Hardpack Mark 1 to the current Hardpack Mark X, we are still the same old guys you've loved all these years and none of us have changed--a little fatter, maybe, but still the same.
I apologize for the slightly grim tone of this blog. It's just that some of the words that have spread around the scene have come back to us. It hurts us a little when we realize that our fans have turned their backs on us because we, according to them, have "sold out".
We'd like to thank everyone who has stuck around with us all these years. I would like to personally thank the rest of my bandmates in Hardpack for welcoming me to their family. I could not ask for better friends. I'm glad that I have my STW and HP fam....now my AT family as well.
