Chuck Dukowski was responsible for booking Nationwide and worldwide tours, bringing Black Flag across the globe to spread their anarchic musical message of Freedom of speech and expression to the world for all of their early tours until 1986. Dukowski also wrote some of Black Flag's most popular songs, including "My War," "The Bars," "I Love You" and "Modern Man." He left the band before the release of My War, and afterward served as Black Flag's manager. Dukowski was also the co-owner of SST Records until 1989.

After Black Flag, Dukowski reformed Würm which continued until guitarist Ed Danky died. Other bands Dukowski formed include SST "supergroup" October Faction, and SWA formed in 1985 with Merrill Ward of Overkill.

Dukowski's first band was Würm which started in 1973. By 1977, the band had moved to Hermosa Beach and lived in a communal house called "the Würmhole". Keith Morris and Greg Ginn were regulars at Würmhole parties and eventually Dukowski joined with them to form the band Panic. Panic changed their name to Black Flag after discovering another band using the name "Panic".
