Gordon Celesta (Dr. Applefritter) and Kevin Frazer (Theodore Stinks) created this website. Kevin did most of the content scavenging and design work, while Gordon did pretty much all of the tech work.

The site is a DIY affair. There is always something that needs fixing up...but we definitely welcome comments and corrections. The site would certainly be less than it is if it weren't for the offers/help/advice of others.

Thanks for the imagery:

First and foremost, Bev Davies , for her great pics and gig flyer collection (from www.punkhistorycanada.ca). Also, Pete Draper/ Heather Haley , Alex Waterhouse-Hayward , Scott Beadle, Susann Richter, Susanne Tabata, Lincoln Clarkes, Leonard Whistler, Kris Olds, Jack Scrivener, Doug Smith, Daniel Su, Pablo Tee, Beatrice Smartt, Tamara Deverell, Kim Dianne, Kevin Kelly, Paul Clarke, Rob Carrico, Sandie Carrico, Lynn Werner, Reza, and all those anonymous but great gig poster artists.

Thanks for the writing:

First and foremost, John Mackie and John Armstrong. Also, among others, Jaime & Sharon Vernon, Alex Waterhouse-Hayward, Tom Hawthorn, Greg Potter, Craig MacInnis, Fish Griwkowsky, Chris Dafoe, James Muretich, Dennis Mills, Tom Harrison, Ferdy Belland, Heather McCoy, Stephen Godfrey, Greg Barr, Alexander Varty, Mary Dickie, Allan MacInnis, Alison Mayes, Brian Lynch, Mike Roberts, Jenny Punter, Andy Pedersen, Chris Wong, Sean Carruthers, Glen Nott, Bruce Mowat, Giles Gysel, Nick Krewen, Ben Rayner, Michael Panontin, Greg Lepage, and Eden Munro.

Thanks, in particular, to Chris Walter for his great short story.

Thanks for the videos: Martyn Stubbs, Susanne Tabata, Rick Martin, Dave Cochrane, Ed Mowbray, Stan Sawczyszyn, Mike Rosatti, James O'mara, Kate Ryan, Doreen Gray, Shane Lunny, and several others as yet unidentified.

Thanks for the feedback, support, and/or other assistance:

First and Foremost, Scott Beadle (for bringing so many pics to our attention + for all the feedback). Also, Colin Smith (article files!), Genevieve M. Exley, Allan MacInnis, Roy Blackwell, Kevin Head, Ross Carpenter, Elizabeth Fischer, Bill Scherk, Jeff Rose-Martland, John Ward-Leighton, Tom Wiebe, Paul Trudel, Stokely Seip, Tom Hawthorn, Les Wiseman,  Mark Bignell, Mike Patko, Kevin Rose, and Jay Smales.

Special thanks goes to Elizabeth Fischer , who helped us get started. She introduced Gordon and I and suggested that we work together.

Finally, and most importantly, ART BERGMANN.

He was not involved in the making of this site. All the same, none of this would exist if it weren't for his remarkable songs, his great recordings, and his fiery, old testament performances.

We hope this site brings a renewed appreciation for Art's music, and for what he has given to the history of rock music in Canada - especially out here on the West Coast.
