Hey - Dunno who added this paragraph:

<snip>

After his arrest, the Subhumans re-formed with Ron Allan on bass. After Dimwit left the band. Randy Bowman joined in his place. During the line up of Wimpy, Mike Graham, Ron Allan, and Randy Bowman, the Subhumans recorded the album 'No Wishes, No Prayers' for Black Flag's SST Records. Ron Allan and Randy Bowman later went on to form the premier Vancouver band The Scramblers.

It's a good addition, but I have two questions:

1) My understanding is that Gerry quit awhile before getting arrested (like in 81?), this paragraph (as well as the ones it replaced) implies that he was a band member up to his arrest, incorrect, no?

2) My understanding - Dimwit replaced by Jim Imagawa replaced by Randy Bowman - or am i missing something?

Not correcting, b/c I don't KNOW - but I think so.

[edit] Arrest Details

I'm virtually certain that Gerry was never charged with the Litton bombing (he wasn't involved in it). IIRC, his charges in connection with the Vancouver Five were conspiracy to commit the Brinks car robbery, weapons charges and some of the Red Hot Video firebombings.

He certainly supported bombings, read Warren Kinsella's Fury's Hour for more details.

[edit] pretty bad looking
