Sublime: Classic or Dud

julio is korrekt, it is brothers not parents (generation gap = marketing scam)

my parents don't really have much of an interest in music (which is OK).

My brother thinks i'm 'mad' (especially after he heard a bit of 'For Alto') so he won't listen to me!

''julio is korrekt, it is brothers not parents (generation gap = marketing scam)''

'ere we go, mark is using 'marketing' as a stick to beat me with yawn...

Call me doubtful on this point.

(oh and btw, DUD)

essentially: chaki OTM

I haven't read the whole thread here, but from the looks of things most of the people that hate are hating the fans, not the band.

The punk rock version of Jimmy Buffet

i was born in 1970 in long beach california and actually was very tight friends growing up with the drummer of sublime, a guy by the name of bud gaugh. i knew of sublime from its inception in 1986 and i watched them rehearse, play shitty punker parties and clubs, and eventually sell out theatres and shit all over california. they were all really nice, down to earth guys and fun to be around. i read something up there about the lead singer having a monster ego, which is untrue, bradley was one of the humblest dudes i ever met. as for musical influence or whatever i'm just a punk from southern california, i can't help you there, but they kicked some mean shit back in the day and they were really, truly a great band and great guys (and rad as hell when it came to surfing)..

just wanted to say something since i actually knew all these guys way back in the mist.

I often think that Thanx would make a good poll, but every time I start to divide it up, it ends up looking like it would have to be 4 or 5 separate polls or something and I give up.

One thing that I learned from reading the lyrics though, is that there were sections that were largely dedicated to rap and reggae artists at the end that were cut from the CD versions. I had an old Skunk Records copy of the 40oz to Freedom cassette though and don't remember those verses being on there.
