We Need Surgery Go! Go! Go! video (Kanagawa, Japan)

Introduce yourself Part II:

Part of my journey as a bit of a nomad included seven years (three full time) as drummer for We Need Surgery, a band I co-founded in Seoul Korea before going on to sign a 3-album record deal with Light Organ Records in Vancouver, record one album, make a video in Japan and then call it quits after three years of basically almost killing each other, never agreeing on the direction the band should take.. all that classic rock band implodes stuff .. But it was a solid band and I was proud to be part of it. Several of our songs are still being used for TV show soundtracks now and then in Canada.

WNS is going to be the focus of several episodes of the podcast I am working on. I've already traveled to Tokyo to interview our guitarist (he's running a guitar and language school and has his own line of e-cig vape flavors now) and plan to go to the US, Korea and Canada to track down the rest of the guys and find out what they are doing now and get down to why the hell we failed as a band. Check the links below to find out more about podcast. It will drop when all episodes are ready.

In the mean time, enjoy the one and official video we managed to get done. Shot in an abandoned high school in Kanagawa, outside Tokyo. It was directed by a cool guy from Space Shower TV - Japan's version of MTV basically, with a whole cast and crew of actors, a motorcycle club, makeup and hair people.. it was insane. It's probably the least representative of our sound and music but the label wanted it to be the single. Check out other songs in the links below.
