What a fabulous way to end a fabulous Season 4 with Ray Ahn, co-founder of one of my favourite bands of all time - The Hard-Ons. In this fantastic episode, when Ray's not humming Ferry 'Cross the Mersey, we're talking about playing Liverpool (I was there!), Dave Grohl, what drew him to punk, what living with freedom means, the importance of truth, friendships, taking risks, gut instinct and not worrying about what people think of you.Thank you Ray, this was so memorable for me.(if you didn't know already, the Hard-Ons are back with a new record, magnificently called “I'm Sorry Sir, That Riff's Taken”)About Ray and the Hard-Ons:If not Australia's most successful independent band, they are certainly the most influential. And they remain resolutely underground, DIY and bloody fantastic. Along with Blackie (Peter Black), Ray is one of the original members and bass player with the band as well as the fella responsible for the band's very distinctive artwork. He released a book of around 750 pieces of his wonderfully subversive art in What I did during my School holidays and also one covering his Comic Book art. They're available from all good book stores. And some not so good ones too I imagine. And probably from Ray as well.He also formed Nunchukka Superfly, which is a much more avant garde, psychedelic wig out combo, and has written some very amusing blog posts – the ones about the ”punk pastry chef “ whipping up a magical $100 dessert, the shirt tucker and the case of mistaken Smashing Pumpkins identity are slabs of comedy gold from a highly talented curmudgeon A few years ago, when asked what to expect from a new Hard-ons album, he said “Tons of melody – concise but exciting tunes played very well by old idiots”I Wanna Jump Like Dee Dee is a music podcast that does music interviews differently. I'm Giles Sibbald and I'm talking to extraordinary musicians, DJ's and producers about how they use an experimental mindset in their lives to amplify their own creativity, pursue new challenges, overcome fears and bounce back from mistakes.- brought to you by Hey Sunday, the mothership of the experimental mindset™.- podcast logo and art by Tide Adesanya, Coppie and Paste

The Hard Ons special with Peter Black in conversation with David Eastaugh The Hard-Ons are an Australian punk rock band which formed in 1981. Founding members included Keish de Silva on guitar, vocals and Peter "Blackie" Black on guitar, Ray Ahn soon joined on bass guitar with de Silva switching to drums. The group issued eight studio albums before disbanding in 1994. They reformed in 1997 to release further material. In 2002 de Silva was replaced on drums by Peter Kostic, who was replaced in turn by Murray Ruse in 2011. De Silva returned as a guest vocalist in 2014 and permanently rejoined the band in 2016. During their first 12 years, the group issued 17 consecutive number-one hits on the Australian alternative charts. During that time they became Australia's most commercially successful independent band, with over 250,000 total record sales. The Hard-Ons' origins are traced to Western Sydney's Punchbowl Boys High School, where three founding members were students.[1][2] In 1981 the first version of the band, then-known as Dead Rats, included Peter "Blackie" Black on guitar, Brendan Creighton on drums and Shane Keish de Silva on guitar and vocals.[1][3][4] In 1982 Creighton left to form Thrust and Raymond Dongwan Ahn joined on bass guitar with de Silva taking over on drums, the group began playing as The Plebs before being renamed as The Hard-Ons by the end of the year.[1][3][4] Initially being too young to play in pubs, the band featured at birthday parties and school dances.[2] On 20 June 1984, The Hard-Ons played their first official show at the Vulcan Hotel in Ultimo.[2]Black later recalled "We wanted to be punk rockers ... We didn't want Keish's parents to see so we had bags full of these jackets and chains and stuff and went around the corner of the street and put all these clothes on. Keish's dad busted us".[2] Quickly gaining a considerable following, in August 1985 the band released its debut extended play, Surfin' on My Face, on ViNil Records.[1][3] This was the beginning of a series of releases for the band that netted them a run of 17 consecutive No. 1 listings on the Australian alternative music charts.[1] The band demonstrated an independent punk spirit, with the members deliberately controlling their own careers: recording, booking and promoting themselves, creating their own artwork (mostly by Ahn), choosing support bands and even managing the merchandise stand whilst on tour.[1][4] During 1987 the group were promoted as part of the Australian skate boarding scene.[5] While maintaining a solid if underground following in Australia, The Hard-Ons were popular in Europe, scoring a Top 10 hit in Spain and a Top 5 slot in Greece with their 1989 album, Love is a Battlefield of Wounded Hearts. It also reached the Top 5 on the NMEchart; this made The Hard-Ons the third Australian band after Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and the Go Betweens to do so. In 1989 the group recorded a split EP with British band The Stupids. Two years later they teamed up with Henry Rollins and released a cover version of AC/DC's hit, "Let There Be Rock", which was released in a limited edition on 10" vinyl. In January 1992 the group performed at the inaugural Big Day Out and were joined on-stage by Rollins on four songs. Following the release of 1993's album, Too Far Gone, and after recording a live album for Your Choice Records, the band announced their break up, to pursue projects outside The Hard-Ons' style of music: "after more than ten years of playing the same songs, they were just not interested in doing so any more".   In 2012, the band began re-issuing their early catalogue as bonus re-packagings featuring unreleased songs and live tracks. The first to be released was a new 60-track version of Smell My Finger and The Hard-Ons promoted it with a national tour. While working a shift as a taxi driver between legs of that tour on 18 May 2012, Black suffered a severely fractured skull when he was assaulted with a skateboard. Several fund-raising shows were held to raise money for his care and recovery, including special Hard-Ons shows in Sydney and Newcastle on 1 and 2 June that featured the line-up of Ahn, Kostic and de Silva on vocals and guitar. Within three months, Black had recovered sufficiently to perform a short tour in support of his solo album No Dangerous Goods in Tunnel that was followed by a Hard-Ons tour of Europe and Japan. Another Australian tour to wrap up the previously cancelled shows was completed in October, with a 51-track re-release of Dickcheese coming out around the same time.

Today Joey chats with bass player Ray Ahn of Australia’s thumping 80s pub rock bands, controversially titled, The Hard-Ons. Ray acts as a chronicler of the wild Australian DIY scene of the 80s and 90s through his blog and, of course, his writing is full of stories about his own bands. In 2017 he released a book of his art titled, “The Art of Ray Ahn – What I Did During My School Holidays” and Ray will be hitting the road later this year with The Hard-Ons in support of their latest album, So I Could Have Them Destroyed. | Producers: Bre Jones & Nicole De Palo

Seja talks to her guest Ray Ahn (The Hard-Ons) about his love of metal, Kiss and Abba, moving from Korea to Australia as a kid and some of the cool band names he came up with before starting his own. Ray tells Seja about how playing in a band called The Hard-Ons has been a weapon against assholes, the non-careerist attitude he has always had towards music and using humour in his art to fight back against bigotry. Ray’s strange story was illustrated by Glenn Smith. You can see more of his artwork at www.glennoart.com or on Instagram @glennoart.

3 very different lives (one of science, one of spirituality, and one of debauchery) are thrown together by fate and a phone call to record this very first episode of the Deaf To All But Metal podcast for 2019. There is talk of new releases. The boys answer listener voicemail where Tyler of Face Command asks about dickheads in the metal scene and how to navigate around them in a tense political climate. There is also discussion of what is to come in the realm of metal in 2019. As always, Jez hasn't read the emails, Tain goes on tangents and Gary mentions Revenge. Plus, Mitch owes Jez big time. Here is the interview with Ray Ahn of the Hard Ons that we discuss in this episode: https://www.abc.net.au/doublej/music-reads/features/hard-ons-rose-tattoo-angry-anderson-ray-ahn/10714398 The DTABM theme song is, as always, by Smithy.
