Goooooooood morning, 2010!!! Welcome to the future, punk rockers. We’re going to kick the decade off with the first post in a new weekly column where every Friday the punk rock geniuses here at Dying Scene are going to unleash a little bit of punk scene trivia all over your asses. Today’s “fun factoid” is an oldie but goodie:
NOFX frontman, and owner of iconic punk label Fat Wreck Chords, is known throughout the punk community simply as “Fat Mike”. Not many people know this, but his real name is Mike Burkett and if you’ve ever seen him, you’d know he’s not really fat, though he apparently picked up the nickname in highschool when he was a bit on the chubby side.
