Joe Haggerty is the drummer for Pegboy and is known for his dense, energetic, relentless and varied drumming style.[1][2] In the mid-1980s he was the drummer for the Chicago punk band Bloodsport. In 1987, three of the members of Bloodsport, including Haggerty, went on to join a re-formed version of the Effigies.[3] When the Effigies folded in 1990, Haggerty became a founding member of Pegboy, along with his brother John Haggerty.[4][5]
