Video interview with Lookout! co-founder David Hayes

Transition Video Magazine recently interviewed David Hayes, the man who founded Lookout! Records with partner Lawrence Livermore. Hayes was also heavily involved in the start of the famous Gilman St venue as well as punk bible Maximum RnR. To top it all off, in 1988 he toured the US in a 1969 Chrylser Newport with a little band called Operation Ivy. Hayes walked away from the Bay Area scene just as punk broke into the mainstream, a time that left many of his peers very rich.

You can watch the video on the TVM website and get a great history lesson about a lesser known punk icon. You can check it out here.
