Seja talks to her guest Ben Ely (Regurgitator) about his dog Michael, hair metal, the punk scene in Brisbane that got him excited about playing music, working out how to get a show, and his first impressions of his future bandmate Quan. Ben tells Seja about being in the middle of band conflicts and how after years of history with the police, he finally got his ‘fuck you’ moment on stage at a ‘save the ABC’ show.

Ben’s strange show story is illustrated by Jhonny Russell (@slckmgck) and can be seen on the HearSej Instagram (@hearsejpodcast) or on the HearSej Facebook page (www.facebook.com/hearsej).
