SPOKE with Tesco Vee

This week host Scott Crawford spoke with Tesco Vee (a.k.a. Robert Vermeulen)—frontman for the Meatmen and Tesco Vee's Hate Police. Vee's career started in the 1970s in Michigan where he started "Touch and Go" fanzine (which would later become Touch and Go Records) and as leader of the Meatmen. Since their inception in 1981,  band's crude humor and stage antics attracted their share of critics, but it was all done in a strictly tongue-in-cheek style. In this interview, Vee discusses everything from toy collecting, Glenn Danzig, CREEM magazine, the early days of hardcore punk, being a self-described liberal, and a special announcement regarding the future of the Meatmen. Follow Tesco on social media at: Instagram: @tescovee www.the-meatmen-com (Please note: this episode contains adult language/subject matter)
