KRUNKY!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Once upon a time there was a band called KRUNKY....<br />
<br />
The band-thing started for me around 1995....<br />
<br />
It's about time I reflected all over it...<br />
<br />
(Just wanted to throw a buffer between the Musclecar buffer and the next Musclecar promo.)<br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e69138;">“That must be the drummer” we all chuckled </span></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #e69138;"><br />

When I showed up at the Sun office it was just me,the reporter and a photographer. Apparently the other members of the Zine Scene were not available until after sundown. I said "yeah" to the right questions enough to get included in the article. I really didn't think I belonged in that article since I barely knew what a zine was at the time and I had only made a very tiny contribution to "the scene".</span> </span></div></div><br />

It was completely misleading. The article continued onto the next page where there was a very small black and white photo with 4 or 5 people who actually made regular contributions to the Zine Scene.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> I felt pretty bad about it at the time.Even though it wasn't my fault.In the runaway part of my brain I expected the entire Zine Scene to rally against me and chase me into a windmill carrying burning copies of my unworthy un-zine.</span></div><div style="color: #444444; font: 15.0px Verdana; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><br />
