I saw them early 90s with Green Day and Neil Young. Was there for Social D and GD and sort of decided to tolerate Young--I was all like whatev on the old man look at my life crap--but then he totally rocked. Great show.

Ball and Chain. One of the best songs EVAR! When they released their first LP, all I could compare it too was The Clash.

I saw them in the very early 80's a couple of times, and then again in the early 90's have yet to see them this century. Thier first EP is one of my favorites.

I saw them a year ago in Reno. Everybody is getting older, the band and the fans, but the music is all the same.
It was great. Go see them if you can.

Years ago, social D was selling out the HOB Anaheim for a month straight.
Then Mike Ness kicked the guy in the face on stage.
They were barred for a little while.....
Always a fun show, always.
They never seem to change, if they did there would be a riot!!

Jefe,
Mike and I came close one night at Big Johns pool hall in Placentia. it was just one of those things where two guys just look at each other wrong. mutual friends kept us apart and neither one of us really wanted to anyway. we eventually became decent acquaintances but never friends.
They are one of my top five bands, especially, Mommy's little monster album

Yeah Cragar.

Long before Jonny Wickersham joined SD he was a teenage local in Mammoth. He played along a few times with a pick-up punk band that practiced at my house in Bishop. A great guitarist and a great guy who went all out in everything he did. He got locked up for awhile at the Mono County juvie when it was out at Whitmore where the animal shelter is now. The crime was slashing tires. Not one or two or even three or four but something like 30 or 40. He got fed up with whatever one night during ski season and just kept slashing until his hand hurt so much he had to stop. That was Jonny.
