Sublime/Expert Profile

Expertise

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.

Experience in the area

Most of my experience in the area obviously comes from living with Brad for a while. I've read the Crazy Fool book twice and I've also watched Stories, Tales, Lies, and Exaggerations along with countless other interviews and videos.

Publications

Some of my writings about Sublime have appeared on the Sublime Forum and on the Sublime Wiki.

Education/Credentials

I am not sure if it matters but I am a college graduate. I feel like I have solid enough writing and research skills to answer most questions. If I don't feel like I can answer a question well, I will tell you so or refer you to GMan or to Matt.
