      Nah, not in America. If they were British, they'd get much more mainstream recognition. We appreciate more original and rougher music rather than the generic over produced classic rock that Americans love.

    It warms my soul seeing Tim and Matt, who have known each other since they were 5, still embracing their music and friendship. OP Ivy and Rancid have always been there for me; it's bliss and a delight seeing and hearing their music bringing light into these dark times. Rancid 4 ever.

    Tim IS the best living songwriter since anyone who came up in the 70s. I’d put him on a level with Waits if it didn’t make me fight myself. The man is and continues to be a genius, he’s never asked for or looked for recognition, just continued chipping away for those who’ll listen. He’s a legend in the flesh and I absolutely love him. But that’s just my opinion, man ….

    People walking by Tim playing on the sidewalk thinking he’s boozer, a loser, another flunky, just a junkie trying to get a fix. But those people don’t know Rancid’s music has been there for me on my darkest nights and best days! Thanks Tim, Matt, Lars, Brett, and Brenden 🤙🏼
