Listen "Punk West #7: Dave Faulkner"
Episode Synopsis
Before the Hoodoo Gurus, Dave Faulkner was a founder member of seminal punk band The Victims in Perth in year zero (1977). In this episode of Punk West, Dave speaks about his love of The Ramones, playing gigs in Perth and co-writing “Television Addict” (which was number 11 in RTRFM’s 45 greatest WA songs) with James Baker. He also spoke of the breakdown of the band, joining The Manikins and then moving abroad and coming back to Perth (as everyone does!).
Punk West is an oral history of Perth’s punk scene. David Redding (Burn the Airwaves) talks to the scene’s stalwarts, stand-outs, and elder states(wo)men about the gigs, the bands, the venues, and the sounds.
