Loopy is a local legend. If you spent any amount of time at The Winston Pub in Durban, or Lefty’s in Cape Town, there’s no doubt Loopy would have hustled a sip of your drink at least once. Loopy has fully lived the skollie punk life, engaging in debauchery and crashing on couches around the country as a member of one of Durban’s most chaotic bands, Fruits & Veggies. These days, she passes for a respectable member of society with a journalism degree under her belt and a writing portfolio established at The Lake.
In this episode, we reminisce over the glory (citation needed) days of Durban’s alternative scene and The Winston Pub. We hear about the rise and fall of Fruits and Veggies. And we learn how Loopy became the unlikely manager of Lefty’s. Enjoy.
