Great stuff. I remember when my Band was playing in Wellington and after our gig I spent a crazy night drugged up to the eyeballs with Eugene and Jenny...ended up crashed out on his floor the next morning and almost missed the flight to the next gig...

[fanecouvee]

Hi Steve, that must be you from Rugby St. Still love listening to Flesh D-Vice, even after all these years. Hope you and Paul etc still going hard in Wgtn. Brenda

[PottyEsq]

Met a guy recently near Greymouth with most of their vinyl.

Great band. Met Gerald and Eugene a few times when they came to Christchurch.

[stikkirecords]

you tell em steve !!!,,,,fuckin good band with yerself and the rest of the lads!!!!

[saviouroftheuniverse]

I worked with Gerald too - as a kitchenhand in Welly when he was our part-time cook - fuck I admired him. Good man, good man.

[Texiton]

My Dad went to school with Gerald,they were best friends!

Oh yeah,and he died of a heart attack,he had a good heart he would never kill himself.He also managed Shihad. Gerald found their (shihads) talents in a competition at a bar that he hosted. He made them big and succesful.

R.I.P Gerald

[a2damuthafukkink]

these guys were awesome back in the day , they rocked hard . R.I.P. G ...

[csummers69]

I worked with Gerald in Wellington in 1988. He was a great guy and had a good heart. I saw him again in Hamilton in 1990 when he toured with flesh De-vice. I remember seeing Nigel Manson with the Manson family (skinheads) then. Their music was, and still is, awesome. One of the best NZ puck bands ever! I was shocked when I heard of his demise.. I share his music with other as I travel the world. He was a musical genius and needs to be remembered as such. RIP Gerald, you are remembered.

[stikkirecords]

r.i.p gerald....great fuckin band, remember the days at the clarendon and the aro street hall.

"capital chaos"...hell yeah.

affy

[tablatom]

@stikkirecords Was the Clarendon the pub upstairs near the fire station?

I havent lived in Wellington my home town for 22 years.

I used to go there and see Flesh D-vice/ Strike master/ Tokyo.etc

[yulie851]

@stikkirecords and the cricketers

[JohnnyAmore]

Best NZ punk band ever

Playing in a month (may30) at the Adelaide in Hellington actually...

[TheAffco]

Without Gerald Dwyer?

[JohnnyAmore]

Well uh no actually they've pulled outta the show. But they've been playin on and off throughout the years without Gerald... and Dwayne sometimes.... I was bass player for a bit and Steve Andrews (Vas Deferens) was singer when I played with em. I Think they currently play as a 3 piece (Brent, Eug, Dwayne) with Eug handling vox. Still a fuckin mighty live show...

[TheAffco]

I can imagine.

[savedbydeath]

You should have killed me when you had the chance!

HAhahahahahah...

Rock and Roll Baby.

[junkyardtattoo]

didnt these guys do a song called "radio-live transmission? or something cool like that,i can barely remember it as a kid

[JohnnyAmore]

Umm yes they did its called Transmission and its actually a very famous Joy Division song

[rufusdayglo]

Happy memories of driving around in Gerald's van with Splash, putting up posters! His club nights at the Carpark were great too... He got me too paint the wall with a jet fighter blowing up a band...

Much missed, such a lovely guy...

[kookyfish]

used to hang around with these boys back in the day and they where without a doubt one of the (real) musical punk influences of there time.

Doug is a great guitarist whos ability went largely un noticed in NZ to its loss.

Hes now in Oz. rock on cuz.

[moonhoptours]

Original bass player was Richard Watts. They used to practice in his dad's house behind Victoria Uni. Even had the drummer from The Mockers as drummer before Brent took over.

[dribblybits]

colour me gone,,,and hamburger was a couple of good songs...

[terei25]

remember seein them at the star & garter (gutter) in chch. crazy fucks. certainly tore the joint up.good times!!!

[cycodamo]

Good Kiwi punk. Best NZ punk band is Warners though, and there's no videos of them on YouTube!!

Gerald Dwyer was Shihad's manager I think, and my bro always reckoned one of the Flesh D-Vice members killed someone with an axe. :D

[zzzmurfzzz]

you guys dont know shit. shihad covered this song on an ep and wrote that flesh d-vice were one of their influences. know the facts fool.

[louderfasterstronger]

i used to follow these guys back in the day, bloody great we had wicked times, fucken good kiwi music

[zzzmurfzzz]

a good friend of mine named doug hepri was the origional guitarist from flesh d-vice. hes the greatest unsigned guitarist i have ever seen or heard.

[steveandrews666]

Wow! whatever happened to Doug (who was the bass player originally by the way)??

[bonzabum]

They didn't become shihad you jellified dick. They disbanded after the lead singer committed suicide in Wellington. Fuck knuckle.

[dairyflat]

"the lead singer committed suicide in Wellington. "

No he didn't.

[highdefinitionaudio]

dairyflat and whoever else, gerald unfortunately died from a morphine overdose at a hotel in auckland while managing head like a hole.

R.I.P gerald, will never forget you as a kid, knowing you were one of my dads mates. Peace.

[steveandrews666]

For a start he never committed suicide, and he didn't pass away in wellington either; Gerald's sadly missed, and for you to go around saying he committed suicide shows exactly who the jellied dick is; Also for your information, the group never even disbanded, prior to, or after Gerald left FDV; you fuck- Knuckle.

[yulie851]

@steveandrews666 Here Fukin Here!!!! gerald, Brent, Dwayne, and Eugene never stoped being FLESH D VICE, They stil play today (minus Gerald, R.I.P) They are Iconic NZ punk Rockers!!

[munchiehk]

These guys became Shihad. I remember seeing them live...they weren't very good. Pretty good song tho'.

[steveandrews666]

Actually, the song is called " Invisible Man ", a classic video, but don't know where you got the name "discipline" from!

[r8diobirdman]

Thanx!!!!!
