Social Distortion - King Of Fools ( acoustic ) denver garage set 10/16/2010

[@lorenbalthazor2730]

I'm waiting for them to release an acoustic CD of all their classics!

[@Backup218]

I wish theyd do a Social d unplugged like band like nirvana got a chance to do

[@annikastenberg3886]

That's a instant buy, if they do!

[@503i.d.tyrantsexsposed9]

I'd be all over that cd

[@Darkshadows90]

100% buy it on the spot.

[@gregkeller80]

Why does it feel like Mike ness wrote all of his songs about me? Love him, thanks for helping me get through this life of mine!

[@andrewbradley8895]

I think it’s his genuine voice… quite simply. I mean, he didn’t write this song and it’s currently being tattooe’d as a sleeve because of SD’s adaptation.

[@maiacisilino]

I've never seen such a handsome and talented fool in my whole life.

[@MarkKusha1]

I love these acoustic/ rockabilly versions of these songs! My respect for Ness is always getting higher and higher

[@MrArcjgw]

I am 72yrs old I saw social D 676 times starting in 1983 I will jam them till the day I die even when I reach the big man in the sky!

[@spicymchaggis666]

I love the smile on Mike's face at 1:30 when he hits that solo. He's loving it. And so am I!

[@MarkKusha1]

I think he was laughing at the mistakes he made right before that bit haha

[@jacobtabler686]

Yeah, I believe he was laughing at his mistakes and how silly and little the solo sounds on acoustic. It is kinda funny...but what's he gonna do? He's already doing it!

[@tomdawson3540]

He's definitely laughing because he messed it up. Actually adds to the song

[@scottg6281]

Im 20 years old and socialD is the only thing that plays in my car. Will never grow tired of them

[@MrCLangfitt]

Your car sounds like my truck. But I didn't catch on to SD until I was 25 -back in 1987.

[@zygmundostrowski6015]

dude this music is pussy magnet music

[@rakocialbert1487]

I'm only 16 but I want a car like yours

[@amberiz2fine]

I'm 27 if i had a car i would do the same thing i've been a fan for years since I was a teenager

"King Of Fools" I was born a King of Fools. Most people think I'm just a playboy breaking rules. But they don't know that when it comes around to love, I always lose. That's why I call myself the King of Fools. I was born never to care, But now I wanna love that I can share. I've searched in vain for a love that would never be true. That's why I call myself the King of Fools [Chorus:] King of Fools, King of Fools When it comes around your love, I always lose. I was born without one good thought. Just to live fast, tell a lie and break a heart. I have broken many hearts and I've broken many rules; That's why I call myself the King of Fools. [Chorus] I was born the King of Fools. At any other game I never lose. But when it comes around to love, that's when I realize: I was born the King of Fools. [Chorus] King of Fools, King of Fools. At any other game I never lose. King of Fools... King of Fools... When it comes around your love, I always lose.

[@rickpop2832]

"When it comes to love, I always lose". Now I believe he wrote those words for me.

This band saved my life.

the smile when we do a guitar solo that doesn't sound right, but we still love it anyways.

[@edgarbanuelos6472]

How can the world be so full of hate when we have Social Distortion?

[@val13c59]

Edgar Banuelos kinda contradicting, when Mike is jumping off stage to punch someone in the face.

[@bkcrocker1]

[@joebarron7659]

Ness pontificated hating bush and trump onstage, while I rack that up to his past heroin junkie addled brain having poor instinct. His hate is not my hate

I've been listening to you since i was 15 I'm 27 now i hope someday i can see you live i ordered my Social Distortion back patch from Poland and put it on my vest myself you are my favorite Mike Ness your music keeps me alive! i love you!

[@mikebourgeois3195]

Saw them 20 years ago live at UCSD when they were nobody. Still my favorite band

[@edgarbanuelos6472]

Don't quote me on this, but I think they already made a name for themselves by '96.

[@dr.ostbahn2256]

you're right. saw them already in Munich (Old Europe) in 1996.

[@thewheel246]

nobody?? i hope you are joking..they were legend by then.

[@brianbarnett3555]

i lived near the campus , wish id known back then they are a great band live

[@infernusrex796]

I saw them for the first time in 1988, and they were pretty legendary on the underground scene for sure, by then? Most Punk bands that came through Florida back in those days would draw max 150 people, but every time Social D played they would always draw over 500 people!!! IMHO, they were legends after the first album!!!

[@belladonna2286]

love this...king of fools, when it comes to love...I always lose....im the queen of fools..

[@okkimgreenhead6554]

These lyrics tells so much. For all those who has been in those heartbreaking moments,true words from Mr.Ness

[@janitor6669]

The song is originally by Ed Bruce, 1977. Great cover, though.

[@paulthompson2147]

Love their acoustic performances. Awesome.

[@garrettjohnson97]

I just watched Mike Ness’ pursuit of tone episode and now I have to know all about this guy, his playing style is super unique. You can really hear all his folk, rock and jazz influences!

[@jacval01]

I was 8yrs old when I first 👂 social D. 35 now .. Never gets old

[@toddjames3950]

33 years later and I'm still listening like it was the first time.
