There is no modest way to say it. Ron Reyes is a pivotal part of West Coast punk. He played drums in Redd Kross when they were still called Red Cross. He got a Germs Burn directly from The Germs. He cut the vocals for Black Flag's Jealous Again. He was one of the main subjects in The Decline of Western Civilization. He once harassed David Lee Roth.





After tearing it up on the sunset strip, Reyes moved to Vancouver where he continued to write and perform with various bands, including the Stooges meets punk of Crash Bang Crunch Pop. But now, he's got a brand new band called Piggy. For the first time ever, and after some 30 years of hoping, Reyes plays guitar in a band and they rip. Piggy is combination of hard rock, punk and that unquantifiable ingredient Ron Reyes, baby. On top of that, Reyes has once again joined up with guitarist Greg Ginn to reunite Black Flag, which will be touring and releasing a new album this year.





In order to learn a little history and to get the scoop on all of Reyes' current projects, Punknews features editor John Gentile phoned up Reyes and the two spoke about Piggy, a band called the Happy Tampons, Black Flag and just what the deal was with DLR.
