Here in your bedroom was the first MP3 I ever downloaded back in the 90s from a webpage right before the legality issues started appearing. Soon after, you had to connect to other people's folders on Limewire. First time I ever figured out what Ska music was from a Playstation fighting game called Vs. That was when I was 14, and I figured out a music genre that spoke to me. The Pietasters and Less Than Jake led to Goldfinger, the Suicide machines led me into punk, all because of the soundtrack to that game.

But I can remember playing baseball with oranges in the green room and we ate half of the pizza that they had back there. They’re actually pretty cool guys.

I tried out as singer for The Used back when they were just called Used and they hadn't gotten Bert yet, I can attest to them basically being homeless. I had just moved to Provo, UT at the end of 2000 and I saw a hand written want ad in a local music store window and gave it a call. I talked with Quinn the guitarist a few times, and he's like "dude can you even sing??" So on the spot I sang an original song of mine and he's like "oh cool man, let's get together this Monday night". Monday came and I was having some transportation problems(yeah I was sleeping on my sisters couch so I wasn't much better off then them😄), I called Quinn and told them I could get a ride there but could someone give me a ride back and he was like "uhhhh, nobody has a car..." I got off the phone and was like "whadda bunch of losers, these guys ain't going nowhere " Then I start seeing these stickers popping up saying The Used and then I saw Taste of Ink and was like guess I was wrong😅 I wasn't the singer that makes that band work, I could never scream like Bert so yeah they found the mix that made that band work and I dig alot of their stuff for sure🤘😎

My exposure to Goldfinger was from Rocket Power of all things. There was a TV movie called "Race Across New Zealand" and during one of the races, they had Goldfinger's version of "99 Red Balloons" playing and I thought it sounded awesome. It's also how I discovered the band Area 7 who had their song "Individuality" featured in that same TV movie. As far as Feldmann goes, the singer in my previous band was OBSESSED with Feldmann's production, so that's how I came to really appreciate him as a producer and songwriter. Some of the best alternative and punk albums of the 00's have his name on them and I consider him one of my favorite producers.

Love the channel and I've watched a ton of your episodes so I appreciate all the work that goes into each video. I agree that Goldfinger is Feldman but you really didn't cover the drastic changes in their sound that happened with each lineup change. For those of us that loved the first album and hangups, Simon (bass) left and they lost all the horns. Next Charlie (guitar) left and they lost all of the cool wah solos. Eventually Feldman had a falling out with the longtime drummer (Darrin) and the sound went almost full commercial. The band died for like 10 years, then Charlie came back, they added the SOTY guitarist and bassist from MXPX and they were back more so as Feldman with a supporting cast of all-stars. Anyhow, it would have been cool had you covered more of the SOTY producer work he did with them which was some of their best. King for a Day, Carlita, Yesterday, Don't Want to be Myself Today were great tracks. The Innocent released after 911 was epic. It also would have been funny playing F*ck Ted Nugent. Great song.

I'm a fan of the band since the release of Hang-ups and had a really great time listening to it. I had the chance to see them live because they were opening for 'The Bloodhound Gang' during their tour, which included a date in my hometown in Portugal - as you may think, this is highly unlikely in a small country. I can remember listening to a member of the band, at the end of their 40 minute or so set, thanking BHG for letting them pay their rent. I feel really happy for John knowing he stayed relevant through the years, eventually getting bigger in the scene. I really loved the Hang-Ups album, not just 'Superman', it really means a lot to me and I believe to some of my friends who got to know the band borrowing the CD from me. This was a really nice video, thank you!

What I have realized is John Feldman has been in touch with soooo many musicians or other bands it’s mind blowing. In Cincinnati before MGK was super popular he was rapping at Warped Tour. I was sitting in the stands to take a break and it was hot as hell. As he was rapping one of the members of Goldfinger I think could’ve been the drummer got on stage and was trying to bring a bunch of fans on stage with them. I turned them down but I wish I hadn’t. It was still cool though.

I went to the Blood Hound Gang show in Lisbon at Super Bock Super Rock at the Garage. I was a Blood Hound Gang and I didn't know Goldfinger, so I bought Hang Ups on a skate store near my school. To my surprise they were the band featured in THPS that I played all the time. I ended up enjoying Goldfinger more than Blood Hound Gang that night and they became one of my favourite bands.

I don't really have strong opinions...wait, any opinions formed yet on Goldfinger. But, Finn, another banger of a video. Thanks.
