Hogan's Heroes

THANK YOU FOR VISITING THE OFFICIAL HOGAN'S HEROES SITE. SKIP, TONY AND JOHNNY HOPE YOU ENJOY. I FORMED HOGAN'S HEROES IN THE FALL OF 1984. THE MEMBERS AT THE TIME WERE, SCOTT ON VOCALS, MATT ON DRUMS, GEORGE ON GUITAR AND MYSELF ON BASS. A BUNCH OF DEMOS WERE RECORDED BUT NONE EVER WERE PRESSED ON VINLY OR CD. AFTER MATT AND SCOTT HAD LEFT, WE RECRUITED DETROIT ON DRUMS AND SKIP SKOOL ON LEAD VOCALS. BOTH ALSO PERFORMED IN OS101 AFTER THE DEMISE OF HOGAN'S. WE PLAYED MANY SHOWS AND PLAYED WITH ALOTE OF GREAT BANDS FROM THE ERA AND HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO RECORD FOR "NEW RED ARCHIVES" AND RESURRECTION AD RECORDS. "BUILT TO LAST" WAS OUR FIRST RELEASE AND THEN THE SELF TITLED AND THEN "101/3 FISTS" MANY YEARS AFTER. THE FINAL LINE UP FOR THE BAND HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO RECORD A LIMITED EDITION 7" CALLED "UNCLE BEN". THE MEMBERS AT THAT TIME WERE: BRIAN ON DRUMS, SKIP ON VOCALS, IAN ON BASS AND MYSELF ON GUITARS. WE TOURED THE U.S. IN SUPPORT OF THE RELEASE AND HAD A BLAST. SOME OF OUR LAST SHOWS WERE SO MUCH FUN, BATTALION OF SAINTS IN TIJUANA MEXICO AND WITH SUBLIME AT THE STONE PONY. HOGAN'S HEROES LIKE MANY OTHER HARDCORE BANDS HAD IT'S UP'S AND DOWNS AND WHAT DIDN'T KILL US MADE US STRONGER. SKIP, TONY, IAN AND I WENT ON TO FORM OS101. WE WERE SIGNED BY VICTORY RECORDS OUT OF CHICAGO AND CONTINUE TO PLAY ON AND TOUR. I HOPE YOU ENJOY THE PHOTOS AND MUSIC, THERE WILL BE MANY MORE TO COME AND THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO SUPPORTED AND STILL SUPPORT US TIL TODAY.
