I do not consider myself an expert on Sublime like GMan and Matt are. I lived with Brad for two years in college before Sublime was formed. During the Sublime years, I lived far from Long Beach so I was never part of the Sublime crew. I was super fortunate to get to go to shows when Brad and the boys would pass through town. I will do my best to answer questions about Bud, Eric, Miguel and of course Brad. I should also be qualified to answer a few questions about Brad's lyrics that are in Spanish. Please send your questions about Brad's musical influences to Matt Maguire even though I do remember most of the stuff that Brad played for me in those years. Please send your questions about bootlegs, general recordings, and merchandise to GMan.

I have a general and random knowledge of Sublime's music, artwork, and shows. Questions having to do with who sang on various songs, a knowledge of who were in some of the videos, who produced some videos, past members bands, where the musicians have gone since sublime, the long beach scene that came about because of the band, and who's covered sublime songs since. I've been to a few shows that included Bud Gaugh and/or Eric Wilson in bands like Long Beach Dub Allstar, Shortbus, and Del Mar. I had also been to the Sublime Tribute CD and DVD release shows in Hollywood. So, I could answer questions having to do with those also.

I can answer any/all questions in regard to "sublime". I was down with the band and Skunk Records since 1991; the year they released their second cassette, "Jah Won't Pay the Bills" until the end in 1996. I have answers to all of your questions about their music, their releases, their unreleased music, their promos, merchandise, and the like. You ask it, I'll answer it.

Guarantee: you will receive an answer within 2 days of posting the question -- whether it is a referral to a different expert or a straight answer to your question. I can answer most questions about the band, the significance of the lyrics, the show dates, the unreleased albums and tracks, misinformation, and, above all, I am an expert on their influences and related music. Additionally, if you're looking for that hard to find track or a cheap alternative to the $300 book Crazy Fool: Portrait of a Punk, I might be able to help.
