Biography

Vladimir Begunov was born in the Crimean Oblast to a family of an accountant and an aircraft engineer. As a teenager his family moved to the small town Lakhta near Arkhangelsk. At that time he played in a Tsunami band. Among his favourite bands were The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Doors and T. Rex.[1] When he was in 10 grade his family moved to Sverdlovsk, where he became Vladimir Shakhrin's classmate. In 1978–1980 he served in the Army reaching the military rank of a sergeant. In 1981 he graduated from Sverdlovsk building technical secondary school.

In 1985, he became a member of Chaif. He has also played the contrabass in Pyotr Beryozkin's country band.[2]

Begunov played in the roles of the forest dryaba Bryaka in the radio play "Zhuzha. Drandalyot's travelling" which is based on Aleksandr Korotich's tale in 2009[3] and in that of the herald in a movie called "Legenda Ostrova Dvid" in 2010.[4] Begunov was awarded the insignia of the Merit of Sverdlovskaja Oblast.[5]

gollark: If you have someone's credit card number and some details you can just... arbitrarily pull money from it and they can't stop it without lots of effort, and you need to give people it to pay for anything?
gollark: To be honest the infrastructure for online payments seems broken and moronically designed and I don't understand how it works.
gollark: Wait, I could just have a box where people can send me credit card numbers.
gollark: What, providing services people are willing to pay for? Ridiculous. And I would need to do payment processing, which would require legal stuff, and making my servers/data actually secure, and it would be annoying.
gollark: Well, that is also worrying, but I really just wanted to take people's money to pay for osmarks.tk hosting and stuff, so meh.
