Such a well adjusted kid with so much talent

[@macroisthemicro]

He's not a kid. He's 28.

[@daisyfuentes4702]

I'm not sure about all that. I think he was always cool and it has been more like a natural occurrence for him. Every time I look at him it's like he lets it roll over him just like the waves of the ocean. I think he is like me my dad who died when I was five and it's not really anything to talk about. Because it's always been that way when you have a huge family loving and supporting you it's not really that big of a deal. 🖤 I accepted things the way they were right after they happened every time. 🖤

[@jebrook]

If that’s what you call talent then I’m Beethoven, Bach and Stravinsky and I’ve never touched an instrument

[@PressuredSpeechBand]

@@jebrook We can tell you never have.

[@jebrook]

@@PressuredSpeechBand nice shut down, you’re totally right

[@erikbrynjolfson6478]

Jacob has so much class ! Very humble and talented.

[@valkleinhans1]

Kevan is a great interviewer! Great questions, informed, and can handle it when they're not all that talkative lol.

[@kevankenney422]

thnx 4 the kind words :)

[@dustinbuechel2340]

Totally agree, Kevan killed it.

[@Nannada1212]

He didn't take the time to look up if they were playing together again, and asked it. That's a little lazy, other than that it was decent.

[@skylercaruso7265]

great interview, great interviewer. way to roll with the answers and continue on. solid.

[@kevankenney422]

Thnx 4 the kind words 🤘

Great job guys, Jacob your dad would be proud of you. Keep up the good work bro. You sound like a really good kid. With a good head on your shoulders. You’re also very talented just like he was. You have a bright future ahead of you. Stay clean and clear, much love to you all.

[@syphodyas226]

Awesome to see sublime finally complete as a band again. I’m sure that Bud and Eric are happy to be playing with Brads son. Brad would be proud

[@joebrdr]

Welcome back Sublime

[@josephwolf5280]

This is not sublime with all do respect its a poser cover band. Eric is a sellout cash grab nustsack.

[@sitindogmas]

most definitely, lol love it. as a kid growing up in the 90s, Sublime while rollin around smoking and shit was a welcome relief from our other herion music lol, it was just more chill, still makes me smile, im permanently homesick for those days. love seeing Bradleys son with these ogs, fuckin awsome guys ✌️💚

[@joshuamaulden9084]

Gonna have to be my favorite band now brad would love this

[@sweetestIoudpac]

Saw them weekend 1 they were amazing. Wish we could’ve saw saw red with Gwen that would’ve been crazy.

[@joshuazepeda9918]

I was wishing for saw red so bad!

[@alexslavinzki2408]

I was wishing for a sublime set without guests and got it.

[@dennisbagwell667]

I was wishing No Doubt would bring him out to play Total Hate and he could do his dads part. They're great and I'm glad he's playing with them.

[@joshuazepeda9918]

@alexslavinzki2408 That's cool and all, but I was hoping to hear some stuff that wasn't on the greatest hits, not hate, but it would have been nice to have a couple more b tracks. How many sublime songs have a feature anyway?

[@hectorh2361]

Yes of course. How that didnt happen is ridiculous..they are only both playing cause if one another. Not coincidence

[@Radiodaze1073]

Your dad is a legend. Most only hear through stories. Of course you got our support.

[@Gforu81]

Truth But it is pretty crappy that he took so many drugs and died

[@richieuccello8071]

LEGENDS!!

[@brandname6]

definitely magic

I love seeing these guys together, but I am concerned about Eric. He seems to get a little worse each year. I hope he finds balance in his life so he can continue to play with Jacob and Bud for many years to come.

​@@travismccloskey9733fr tho... What happened to "sublime with Rome"? I mean honestly I haven't paid attention since 40z to freedom.... But last time I checked that was the name and the lead singer . What in SHlT is going on now ?

Cant wait for no values.

[@robbie5984]

It’s still really weird to me having friends that did nothing but hate on the Rome lineup be all about this one. It’s the same thing to me. I like it all but don’t get why they wouldn’t call it Sublime but they do now. It’s still not Bradley.

[@user-ee6ne9xz8x]

Because Jakob and his mom own the trademark to the name, and now that Jakob is in the band, their allowed to just call it sublime. Use like the most basic critical thinking skills, and you would’ve come to that conclusion on your own

[@robbie5984]

@@user-ee6ne9xz8x oh, yeah. I definitely understand all of that. I’m just giving them a hard time because back when Rome join the band, the family didn’t want them using the sublime name because Bradley had passed away they said. His kid sounds great, but it is just kind of weird that he is fronting the band now. The very little bit I’ve worked in the music industry I know most arguments are over money and rights. Lol. Thanks for the reply yo!

[@erikhancock3186]

But it is Bradley, it's his blood! This is a very unique thing happening in music and band. Actually pretty historical. Rome was fine but he was not Sublime, Jakob is 100%

[@jeffwilliams2458]

I mean everything they did with Rome sounded much more poppy. I've bought several of their albums and they're okay, but not in the same conversation with anything sublime.

[@futuregootecks]

@@erikhancock3186yeah I think it strengthens their legacy

[@MrArch21]

Sad to think this is what came to be Sublime...... its over

[@minenotyours212]

This isn’t sublime?! They don’t even have a Dalmatian

[@garyjones6843]

Won't pay to see these guys. What they did to Rome was so low down and then Jakob comes in has the nerve to trash him. Imagine recording a new album, and signing tour contracts with the guy you hired that's has kept your cash flow going for 15 yrs and the just saying 🖕. Not only that Rome has to legally finish a tour under the Sublime's name by himself. Guys are jerks.

[@frankiew311]

How did Jacob trash rome? Not that I care about either one I'm just curious did he say something?

[@DReese8533]

Yup. I have a feeling this won't last long at all.

[@TryNSave]

@@DReese8533It won't be long before Bud Gaugh leaves again and says “it didn't feel right without Bradley” just like he did in 2011. If they had any decency, they'd look out for Eric. I'm seriously worried about him.

[@davidforday]

Nah - that will never be "Sublime" --- Bradley wrote songs. This more like "karaoke"

[@ag4591]

Dude can’t even play his dad’s solos. At least Rome could play the guitar
