Trent (Repo Man)

I blame society. Society made me what I am.

About Me


With Agent Orange after the gig in Vancouver March 08


In Detroit Michigan with Joe Shithead (D.O.A.) late 1980's

I was born in Canada, lived in Windsor, Ontario during the 70's & 80's. I saw the Dead Kennedys perform in Detroit, Michigan back in 1984. My first favorite punk bands were DOA, Circle Jerks, Gang Green, Agression & Minor Threat.


Around 1986 I started a fanzine I named "SOLD OUT" after the Gang Green 7". My friend Otto started booking bands in Windsor which in turn started our small scene. Slapshot, Asexuals & SNFU are just a few of the bands that he booked. Aside from working on the fanzine I started collecting records, visited many Michigan record shops monthly and trading with other collectors around the world. For a very short time I attempted to play drums & bass guitar in bands Brain Hammer & Young Blood. Sometime around 1988 I was pictured in Maximum Rock N Roll magazine when Otto submitted an article on the Windsor scene. I was a terrible bass player and some say a not so great drummer but I had fun and was really only in the bands to meet girls, that never happened. I volunteered as a radio DJ at CJAM 91.5fm (Windsor) until 1990 when I moved to Kitchener, Ontario where I volunteered at CKMS (Waterloo) & CKWR (Waterloo).


With neighbor and friend Kipp in my basement 1980's

I am now living in North Vancouver seeing shows in Vancouver and Seattle. I have little to show for my punk history other then a few stories, photographs and a tiny collection of vinyl.

Repo Man is my favorite film and I started a web site in 1998 to show it www.repomanfilm.com
