Hickey - Various States of Disrepair


*not actual album cover

Here's a little story about Hickey: They once released a split 7" with the Voodoo Glow Skulls (wait, it get's better). The thing is, the VGS side of the record was an unauthorized recording from an answering machine left by VGS demanding the return of a trumpet that Hickey had stolen.

Legend has it, that during the show, Matty Luv (Hickey front man) had been making fun of VGS for being on Epitaph records. The two bands then had a bit of a confrontation and VGS was able to convince the venue owner to remove Hickey from the show. In response, the members of Hickey broke into the VGS van and stole a trumpet.
