The 222's (punk)

​

The 222s are a punk band that was active from 1977 to 1981 and are among the first original Canadian punk bands and most likely the first glam/punk band to emerge from Montreal. They are most famous for their 1978 single "I Love Suzan". The band temporarily re-formed in 2010 and still occasionally play festivals in Canada.  The 222s, who took their name from a Canadian pain killer of the same name, were formed by guitarist Pierre "Al Cleann" Major and singer Jean "Frisson" Brisson in the summer of 1977.
