15 years ago today, Duke Nukem Forever was released (14 Jun 2011) - the end of a long twisted path for that game. I was there at the start when it began (Apogee/3DR), and I was there at the end (with Gearbox) when released. Met Jon St. John at the release party. So many memories #AlwaysBetonDuke

Enjoying Scottish punk band Doss.
This track is pretty much a Doss interpretation of My Sharona.
