[@mopes2713]

One of the greatest bands to ever walk the face of the earth! Thanks for the upload.

[@sandyhanson6082]

Ok they're cool but,let's not go nuts!😉

@@sandyhanson6082 Oh Sandy…

[@sandyhanson6082]

@@Mistergorehound I've know Mike since he started that band! He would laugh at my comment! He knows I love him! I was in a band called The Mechanics out of Fullerton. We started the "OC SOUND" whatever that is!😉 Mike always gives us credit for that. We only put out one single (although we had enough for an album.) Guess we were around at the right time right place. August 1977. Very proud of that. 😊

Is he drinking Starbucks?

@@sandyhanson6082 best thing to come out of OC I'm kinda a sucker for sublime too though lol

[@jnealcarr]

I just watched a recent interview with Mike after he successfully completed treatment for tonsil cancer… The difference in his voice is such that it really speaks to his heart and passion for songwriting and his commitment to finishing his new album. I’m really looking forward to its release and I’m hoping that I can catch a show on his upcoming tour with Bad Religion… I am grateful that legends like Mike have survived all the pushback that life throws at them. Truly inspiring. Cheers Mike !

Can't wait to see Mike and Johnny performing my cousin , justin Townes Earles songs in a benefit that Justin's dad, Steve Earle is doing in January. I'm on the guest list 😎 . I was super shocked and surprised to see Mike and Johnny on the bill among all the country and folk music artist. I know Justin would be stoked . I hear they are recording the show. So stoked I hope I can get a chance to talk to them backstage.

[@HectorSuxxx69]

I saw your cousin play in San Francisco before the pandemic and Jonny opened for him. I assume they were friendly. Tough loss.

[@danielmims8467]

@@HectorSuxxx69 it really is such a loss. We are the same age and only got to hang out a few times but both have similar demons. I love social d and to be back stage with em will be surreal . I would've loved have see that show. I never got to see jt perform , I have played guitar with him like 20 years ago tho. I think that was the last time he was down here besides him being buried out there.

[@dont.ripfuller6587]

@@danielmims8467hell yea 👍🏼it's cool to see people hyped for stuff like this anymore, hope you have a good time

[@Coconutblvd]

I love them. I grew up a huge fan of Blink 182, but their brand of punk rock is unlike anything I've heard before.

[@indiiigochild9372]

at 5:10 fucking "blood red summer" by Coheed and Cambria was playing in the background literally got chills and was sent back to the early 2000s🙏💜🙏

[@ponyxpress001]

Incredible Artist, Actually Both Mike & Johnny But Mike Had Progressed From A Punk Rocker To A True Musical Genius/Artist. His Writing, Playing, & Even Singing Is Iconic. I Ignored Social D For The Longest Time Due To My Ignorance & Closed Mindedness Dismissing Them As Simply "Punk" But They Have Evolved Into So Much More Than That. After Hearing "Bad Luck" In A Movie Soundtrack, I Chased That Song Down Only To Find My New Favorite Band. And My 19 Year Old Kid Tells Me That He Played "Story Of My Life" On PS Guitar Hero Years Ago !!!! WTF Kid, Why Didn't You Turn Me Onto These Guys !!!

[@refluxcatalyst7190]

why is AFI blasting in the back while Mike is talking? It's obnoxious.

[@javisanmartincorrientes6831]

What you mean?

[@rdone4932]

Mike is arrogant and cocky yet totally likeable..and he's still pretty gangster drinking Starbucks...

[@atomictdog1558]

Best punk band ever!

[@stevemcqueen2259]

10:12 ..... interviewer gunna get knocked TF out (lol) ..... watch the demeanor change in Mike's face .

[@Mistergorehound]

This dude would much rather be interviewing Simple Plan.

[@maxpayne4129]

Yeah can't be more right

[@R.Jarrell]

Interviewer needs to check himself

[@maxpayne4129]

Facts 💯

[@pseudobeast4653]

Mike Ness is the Fonzi of punk rock.

[@stefffi1367]

Best man 😻🥰

[@jacobanderson4101]

This host has no idea how close he was to getting throat punched.

[@sharkskinboy]

Yeah I like the occasional smirks between Mike and Jonny.

[@beachpatrolgolgothic]

Like when he mentioned Johnny Cash?

[@brentpietrok4758]

This host is horrible. Mike is clearly annoyed. Love SD.

[@MrSwitchblade327]

Mike literally always says the exact same thing after every single album release.........9 years later new album

[@leahflower9924]

Was Mike Ness a clash fan by any chance?

[@javisanmartincorrientes6831]

Yes.Mike is a huge Strummer fan.

[@MrSwitchblade327]

Yes check out his cover of the Clash's Death or Glory . It was on the movie lords of Dogtown

[@mr.mertman5711]

Could Mike and Johnny want to be anywhere but here, being interviewed by someone that doesn't realize how important Social D is to music history..... Case in point, "What's do you think of the current punk scene?" Clueless..... Hard to watch....I don't know how they made it through. Didn't even ask Johnny any questions....

[@josephhogarth6915]

I could have done without the "Playlist" over the entire interview. At least play some music by the band that is being interviewed.

[@xwhite2020]

I'll tell the TV producers to give you a call before they lay out the next show.

[@CIintB3ASTW0oD]

@@xwhite2020 You do that bruh, cuz that setup they had was complete @$$

[@garysiegel4777]

Social D is a cool band... but they literally NEVER make albums.......... live... they are pretty good....

[@chadwickwright2833]

Great live!!

[@QueenOfTheGreen27]

What do you mean they have lots of albums

[@brave_gravity]

Quality over quantity my brother. They have 7 studio albums of absolutely insane quality. I’d much rather that than a pile of filler material.

[@MrSwitchblade327]

Yeah they do......every 9 years lol

[@Romanesquire]

Punk is dead. The scene is dead.

[@Sickxboy__]

Hell Yee , Fuck Punk

[@michaelvolgare4454]

@@Sickxboy__ Punk is not dead, Punk is something that stays in your heart.

[@MrSwitchblade327]

Lol punk,like garage, psychedelic, and outlaw country never dies friend. It's always there in the underground scene where it started. Things bubble up to the mainstream surface in times to fuck shit up and make people remember and then settle back down in the local scenes and backalleys it calls home. Mainstream sucks

[@Romanesquire]

@@MrSwitchblade327 doesn’t sound like you play in a band. The local scenes are dead for bands in all genres. I listen to many different styles from old school punk, rockabilly, psychobilly, outlaw country, bluegrass and some electronic. Live shows are toast for local small acts. National acts will always do well for the most part. It’s always best for small acts to get on national bills but those shows are not that easy to get on. You gotta have connections. People don’t go to shows as much as they used to back in the day.

[@frankdisney9777]

Punk got me through a lot in my youth! Started playing in bands, I got pretty decent as a drummer and finally I got to share a stage with a band who is the reason why I played! The band was Guttermouth! Punk rock will always be in my heart!

[@chrisa3289]

Mike Ness, good music, terrible personality

[@jakelencher817]

and how is that.

[@MrSwitchblade327]

Do you know him personally or reaching a conclusion based on interviews lol
