A beautifully candid interview. It brought a tear to my eye knowing that he is no longer with us. He's finally on his cloud. Thank you for everything, Mr. Pig.

Looks like the spaceship finally picked him up. Have a good time out there Chi!

One of my fondest memories of my teenage years was meeting Ken, skating with him and then being totally surprised when he ended up being the singer of the band I was going to see (for the first time) that night. SNFU will always be in my top 5 favorite bands of all time and the memories of just how nice Ken was and never even mentioning his band as we skated. I got to see them and talk to him several more times over the years but that summer in 88 will always have a special spot in my brain. Rest In Peace and I hope you are relaxing on that third cloud.

How the FUCK does this video only have 278 views?? This is goddam gold! To sit with Chi Pig and have an honest to God conversation would be completely surreal.

I absolutely love that the one thing that kept him going was himself. That is amazing. Great interview. The world lost a brilliant human being.....or alien.

A beautiful man. Great edit guys. Heartbreaking to come across this today.

Rest easy in the mothership, Chi. Thanks for 35 years of music.

Such a good man and the greatest frontman I've ever seen. A true one of a kind legend. Rip Chi.🙏

Chi got his beam to the cloud today and I'm happy for him. Thank you for you mr.pig.

You only needed a minute to know you were experiencing an unforgettable moment with Chipig commanding the audience. He stirred entire spaces with his energy and magical presence. We always left an SNFU show feeling like we participated in something special together. You gave it. We got it. We were lucky for your presence. Thank you 🙏

Gone...he is gone away..gone to a better place. Wonderful interview. Thanks

Safe travels my brother .... i am proud and so blessed with being able to call you my friend for the past 40 years .

Rip Chi Pig. The most unique voice in punk rock. I'll never forget you!

Best of the chi interviews I’ve seen so far since he passed. That’s amazing how prescient he was saying he’s just waiting for the spaceship to come down take him up to the cloud between his mother and his father, he can’t wait. It’s not sad at all -- he’s in his happy place.

Saw them so many times in hometown Edmonton. Be well good sir, you are loved. Stay gold.

This is beautiful. Thanks for capturing it and posting

I saw SNFU in the 80's in London...and they were mental......I wish you a pleasant journey Ken....I hope you are happy now...xx Take care Brother...x

SNFU was one of the very first hardcore punk bands I started listening to as a teenage skateboarder. I was turned on to them by one of my earliest skater friends back in 1987. In my Freshman English class that year, we had a project where we had to choose a song that meant something to us, put together a collage, then present the song to the class. I chose "He's Not Getting Older, He's Getting Bitter" from the album, "If You Swear, You'll Catch No Fish." I remember when it came time to present my collage and play the song to the class, the uncomfortable looks of disbelief and shock I got after it finished were quite something. Ahhhhh, the fond memories of high school and punk rock! This was a great impromptu interview and it looks like you guys really captured a special moment. Thanks for the tunes and RIP Mr. Chi! Hope you're at peace on Cloud #3. ❤

What a blessing to have this private moment with this legend - Amazing Interview!

Got to see some of those iconic shows in the 80s and even the 90s. Rest easy dude. Great job with the interview.

How cool, awesome that you were able to sit down with him like this and just talk. I briefly met him before a show in Calgary around 2009, just a great guy! Eternal rest with your parents and the aliens Chi Pig

Thanks for sharing this heartfelt interview.

Heartbreaking... SNFU was a part of growing up.. shame I never got to see him live

What a great interview. and I'm not too proud to admit I got a bit choked up when he said how much fun it was to make friends with you guys. He seemed like a genuinely warm, thoughtful guy and I wish SNFU had gotten bigger, I wish Kenny didn't go through his issues with drugs and I wish he was still here rocking the fuck out. RIP, Chi, enjoy your cloud or spaceship or whatever and thanks for giving us all the great songs and memories.

I got to meet some of my heroes too, including this man. He did a pig face drawing on my arm that i got tattooed over, my wife as well. He hung out with us for hours and was just cracking jokes and beers the whole time. I found out last night at band practice, put on snfu for the drive home and just cried while i sang along. Feels like losing family.

I love this Interview! Greetings from Brazil! 🖤

I used to hang out in the music scene in the Vancouver downtown east side over the last decade or so and would run into him and chat quite often. He was a really decent human being.

Met Chi seeing The Wongs in Saskatoon Saskatchewan in 1990. 50 years old, played all over the states, met many of the greats. That was the only time I’d ever asked for an autograph. I’d been a huge SNFU fan before that. Thank you for posting this man. It really tickles the feels!

Thank you for sharing this! RIP Mr. Chi Pig!

WOW!!! The only album that I ever bought simply because of the cover. That little kid all stressed out and holding a hand grenade with the green tint to the cover. She's not on the menu, Cannibal Cafe, The Gravedigger. And no one else wanted to play... I still play that album and I still dig it. Glad to see Mr Pig. Love that album. Be Safe 😷😵😷✌

Thank you for posting this.

Ah Ken, what an amazing, poignant, and yet sad interview. You had to know the guy to understand where he was coming from, he wasn't crazy or weird, just insightful & always present. I hadn't seen him in a few years and I so wish I had seen him again before he was beamed up to be that middle pillow cloud between his folks. Much love, Ken. Be well where ever you are & glad to have known you for most of my existence, my youth would have never been the same with you and SNaFU.

His perspective is amazing. I still can't get over the impact he had on so many people. I wish I had the opportunity to meet him and explain how grateful I was to have his music in highschool. Fucking modern day Mozart

Great interview, much respect for Chi and the interviewer.

Enjoy it upstairs Chi! You are missed!

I was blessed to have met Mr chi pig n hear him sing God bless his beautiful soul you will be missed by many .like white on rice as you always said to me.

Thanks for posting this interview. Really cool edit and conversation with Ken. I hope he's on that middle cloud right now basking in the love of his parents and looking down at us and having a laugh.

Rest in piece my friend. You lived a full life that most can only imagine, see you on the other side.

Rest Easy Chi. An absolute icon.

My first concert in '85 @14 years old. Never have seen anything top that. Turned me Punk for Life

RIP CHI legend from brazil

Thank you for sharing your moments with Ken. RIP!

I worked for SNFU in the mid nineties in the epitaph years.. Played Keys on Bobbitt.. Chi was my room mate on tour as we all doubled up on hotels.. This version of Chi in your interview is a different Chi that I knew. But he made his choices and he died young. If this was uploaded in Jan 2020, the interview must of happened before Oct 19 of 2019 as would be 57 in January. thanks for this. Simon/ Apologue podcast

Beautiful, thanks for sharing

SNFU GREAT MEMORIES.

Sad to hear Chi has passed. SNFU was one of the best live bands i have ever seen, Chi made the band what it was, truly amazing.

It was awesome for us to run into Ken and meet him. Such a good guy I hope he's doing well and gets a chance to see this video. If someone could send him the link it would be much appreciated, Thanks.

Guy had a nice soul . really good interview.

That was Beautiful, thnx for sharing this!! I had the Privilege of meeting him the night my band played Pub340, we had a good chat for about 10 minutes ~ I told him "I Love SNFU", and he replied "Me Too!!".. Rest In Power Chi, you were a Kool Kat*

Well done... a true creative master. Thank you.

Único, Inigualable, e irrepetible. Gracias por la magia Mr Chi Pig!!! Buen viaje !!!

I was at the whiskey show in 85 he was great what a show he put on

Truly a Canadian treasure, seen him live in Regina in 02, really a genuinely nice person, RIP Chi

I was fortunate enough to be able to buy him a beer and have a short conversation with him. It still blows my mind that they’re from my hometown.

Unbelievable how sweet this man was. His pure soul Will Shine Forever. Ciao Ken

Not stopped listening to Chi and SNFU for the last 5 months always liked them, but now miss them xx

Just hung up the shirt he signed for me.

Breaks my heart that chi is gone, the sardine can is gone...that was Ben at the end...the lower eastside will never be the same... Looks like that spaceship took him home...there were weird lights in the sky that Thursday night 🖤

He really was a brilliant dude and a beautiful soul.

Turns out he had 7 more months to live... SNFU were an amazing band in those mid 80s. Saw them in a tiny club in Ohio and they were unbelievably. I've seen them a number of times since but they were never the same. Sad to see the destruction of drugs...RIP Chi

This is wonderful. ❤️

R.I.P. Mr Chi Pig beautiful spirit

Awesome honest man who made me laugh and was a great quiet friend to my hubby. Always was looking for a replacement aviation helmet for him but he was happy with my pink gloves. RIP dear Chi

Great interview, thanks for sharing it

1,2 SNFU Mr. Chi Pig R.I.P

It seems everyone has their story of bumping into Chi Pig. I grew up in Dublin and bought the album FYULABA when it came out, when I was maybe ten, and I loved it. So melodic. Fast-forward 20 years and I find myself in Vancouver by myself for a few days and take a "wrong turn" into the DTES and see a striking-looking chap on his hunkers outside a bar named Funky Winker Beans. Knew it was Chi Pig because I had happened by chance to see a current photo of him a few weeks previously. Approached him and told him I used to blast FYULABA in my bedroom in Ireland in the late 90s. He was freaked out that I even recognised him. We chatted about Irish punk bands and other stuff over beers. He was the most instantly lovable person I have ever met. When we were parting company he grabbed my wrist and said, 'I don't usually talk to strangers, but I really enjoyed talking with you.' I fecking melted. Later that night I saw him pour his guts into a karaoke machine -- 'Hurt' à la Cash. A year later I learnt he died. He was such a sweetheart and he didn't deserve the ill health and bad times he had to go through -- no one does. Rest in peace, mister.

This interview made my day. Thanks for sharing it! This guy was a true legend. Cheers from Brazil.

SNFU CHANGED MY LIFE. I remember the first time my brother played cannibal cafe for me. One of the best live shows I never got to see (Thanks Mom)

An incredible, incomparable force in music and in life. I am grateful for the time I shared with him and my friends at shows over the years. Enjoy the pillow cloud. I can think of no one more deserving. Thank you for your songs, stories, and kindness.

This is an insightful interview of a Punk icon. You will never be forgotten, Ken. Rest in peace, you dear soul.

Thank You, brings tears, Blessed Be Chi

thank you for this

So many stories and nights out running into him and ending up carousing around the hood. He always looked out for me when I was often going 'full tilt' and would make a point if we were in a crowd to make sure I was o.k . I'll miss your karaoke nights. The scene has lost a true fixture and now a legend. Miss you Ken,enjoy your pillowy cloud... rest well.

This just makes me so sad, It makes me miss him so much. He won't be writing more music. Such an amazing musician.

Raddest shows ever. Thanks for the good times. RIP Ken.

Bless your f'in heart, Chi Pig!! And yes, you did make it upstairs! Forever eternal peace. 🌙 ✨ Thank you for sharing this @ thebeginning I just heard about his passing.

Great interview thx

This interview must have been just months before we lost Chi. A beautiful human.

What a beautiful soul RIP Ken 🙏

I remember being on Hastings having lunch and I looked beside me at the counter and he was sitting beside me. Super nice guy. Canadian punk royalty. R.I.P

You know someone’s a good guy when the other dude has this constant smile on his face.

Just heard news that he passed. Unbelievably sad. Such a legend.
