I joined the band in late 1994 when the guys were gigging under the name "The Chairman of the Bored". I answered an ad in the local music press as did Bev, the keyboard player. We joined Wayne Greg and Norm and with a few jams and a name change this bunch of misfits had become Left Nut. I'd come from a heavy metal background and was looking for something different and these guys were that. None of us really listened to the same music but we were all easy going and willing to let each other do their thing to create something different and new. It was hard to fit in and play gigs around Perth being that we didnt play any particular style or genre because we'd play all of them, sometimes in the one song! My double kicking gave some drive to Norms punk guitar work and Gregs smash and slap bass playing and Bev would lay some kind of cheesy keyboard flourish over the top to give the songs some texture or effect. Wayne had an awesome voice that could croon, or roar whenever needed. His onstage antics were hilarious, cart wheeling across stage and baring his bollocks! A lot of audiences werent sure what he was going to do next and neither did we, haha. Man, we had some fun

By 1996 Greg, built a studio in his workshop and there we recorded the Uncut CD. Full of punk fun, it spawned the live favourites She Comes, Garbage and Punk in Jamaica.

As our notoriety grew we looked to getting a record deal and promoting our music overseas. In 1998 we recorded the Pig's Arse! EP at Satellite Studios. The songs were again something different, some pop, some heavy and it was hard to pigeon hole our music to a particular market. But hey, we enjoyed being creative, fuck everyone else! Norm around this time decided to leave the band. His replacement, Matt (Scrote) Bovell brought some heavy funk to the band in place of Norm's Punk Ska style playing. When Greg decided it was time for him to move on a year later, Alex (Papps) Anastas joined the 'Nut and added some more funkiness to our sound. With ages ranging from 22 to 55 we were a bit of a weird stand out on the live scene and carried on rockin' like mad men playing more than a couple hundred gigs in Perth and Fremantle.

An opportunity to sign a recording contract appeared in 2000 but for one of the first times in our career we just couldnt agree on the direction and didnt want to be committed to playing just punk styled stuff which was what the record company wanted.
