Adam, I've watched you for YEARS and NEVER thought I'd see you make a video on my hometown of Bremerton!! Wild. In middle school, when we didn't like a girl, we called her a "Bremalo" 🤣🤣🤣
Awwww...love Bremerton. I lived in Port Orchard and worked in Bremerton right across the Roxy, Moved back to California 2 years ago, go to forks to see the inspiration of twilight ❤️
The rooftop scene from MxPX's "Want Ad" video is the Interurban Building at 157 Yesler Way, Seattle, WA. The double deck freeway along the waterfront visible in the camera pan was the Alaskan Way Viaduct that was torn down a few years ago. The camera (which had to be higher up) would have been in the Smith Tower across the street at 506 Second Avenue. The Smith Tower has an observation deck. The next time you are in the PNW, you can go up there and replicate the cinematography.
MxPx is my all time favorite band. My older brother took me to my first concert which was MxPx when i was 13 back in 1998. Their music has always been there for me when life gets hard.
Hey Adam, you should go towards the northeast next, I’ve never seen Vermont, New Hampshire or Maine on the channel, there’s a lot of beautiful countryside and I guarantee a TON of old towns that backroads could take you to, I think it would be intriguing to the viewer and interesting to you. You could do one of your “Americans backroads and forgotten towns” series videos
HEY ATW...I CAN'T SAY I'M NOT SAD TO SEE YOU GO. IT HAS BEEN such a cool week, full of people, places and things I thought I would never get to see. I didn't realize how beautiful the Pacific NW is, but thanks to your daily vlogs, I have now traveled there. Thank you.
Great video of my home town. The parking lot in which you were in for Kmart was correct, but you needed to be on the other side of the Acetunos Taco shop. The DCYF building is the old Kmart. They ran across the street in front of the Clover leaf which is still there. I hope you enjoyed your time out here. We really loved your video!!
Aww, I’m sad to see you leave our beautiful area. Our son is stationed there in Bremerton by the way. Anyhow I hope you don’t wait too long to return. Late spring/summer/early fall are especially wonderful.
well it was interesting I'm sure trying to find the parts of the song, my dad was NAVY so that old Navy ship was nice to see, we lived in Washington state when he was stationed in Whidbey Island
I was born in Bremerton! But grew up just north in Silverdale and Poulsbo. You should consider another trip to Kitsap and stay in Poulsbo the third weekend in May for Viking Fest- donut and Lutefisk eating contests, parades, Viking village, adorable downtown (very Norwegian). Would love to see a video you do of Poulsbo.
Bremerton has deep roots for us. I lived there for 52 years. Seen a lot of growth. Our boys knew MXPX members. You should have went across the Manette bridge to the Manette tavern where they played. Thanks for the tour of Bremerton. Home of the Puget SoundNaval Shipyard!!! Great navy town!!
Welcome to my neck of the woods. That photo could have been taken on the mud flats in Tacoma. Central Kitsap High School where you were is a completely new school. I’m in Port Orchard. You drove through my town and didn’t even call me! Lol. Cool video.
Loved this week of PNW locations, you could easily do two weeks of movie location shoots if you travel 2 to 3 hours north to Vancouver, BC. Can't wait for your next PNW and hopefully see Kindergarten Cop locations. Great vids
Thanks for doing some deep dives on punk rock from my younger days! 🥁🎸 Were you ever into ska bands from that era too? Bands like Reel Big Fish and Mighty Mighty Bosstones were my jam back in the day but naturally punk bands like MXPX and Rancid (among many others) were right there for me too.
I loved MXPX listened to them before they got popular in my Christian ska and punk days. I was wondering when I listened to that song as well. Thank you for sharing
i find it so interesting seeing folks explore the place i grew up. on a side note i think the singer of MxPx actually works for the navy yard there. atleast he was in 2016 when i was there.
I just watched this and found it quite interesting. However, what was interesting to me was that this song kept playing in my mind as you meandered thru Bremerton etc. It hasn't played in my mind for decades.you brought it back Adam😉 "Papa was a rolling stone Wherever he laid his hat was hishome And when he died, all he left us was alone Papa was a rolling stone (my son, yeah) Wherever he laid his hat was his home And when he died, all he left us was alone...." It's the 2nd version by The Temptations (the one that went #1). It's psychedelic tune sticks with you... (more than the lyrics). Now, in my mind it's your theme song looking to the sunset somewhere... 😊(it'll probably disappear after awhile).
Next time you are up here you need to get to port Townsend where a lot of filming was done, Long Beach (longest drivable beach in the US), and some of the overall puget sound towns. You can take a boat and explore islands and port cities. It was great to see my home PNW featured! So many cool areas to visit! Safe travels! By the way, I agree, slowly going the way of the buffalo is my favorite album too!
DD 951 is the USS Turner Joy. Now a museum ship after being decommissioned. A former shipmates was aboard her during the Gulf if Tonkin Incident. I was stationed aboard the USS Enterprise in 1978/79 while she was in the yards in Bremerton. I lived in the Tacoma area then. Bremerton has changed a lot since I was there. The area is amazing. Did a fair amount of hiking and camping during my time there.
Great video and really good job getting around Bremerton by yourself. So glad you found the actual downtown area, Callow Ave is kind of a pit, but it used to be much worse. LOL 14:35 is definitely the Seattle waterfront. You can see the 2 big cranes used for loading the shipping containers on the left edge of the pier (there are more of them just out of frame). West Seattle (Alki point) is in the top of the frame. Really good job Adam!
Thank you Adam I appreciate you showing places that you have a special interest in seeing And telling Why you went and What you hoped to see. I have Enjoyed watching you for many year's. You have given so much of yourself. I sincerely appreciate you HAPPY Valentines Day 💝 ❤️ Adam .. Have a Blessed trip from Tammy
Hey Adam I give all your videos a thumbs up good job in your videos that you do. I enjoy when you do movie and tv location videos it’s so cool I enjoy as a subscriber and view your videos I enjoy those type of videos ❤️ But I enjoy all your videos.
Oh and if you hadn’t left already, you should take the ferry over from there to Seattle. Nice ride, different view, only about 15 mins to the airport from the other side.
Natashas was a big venue for punk bands late 80s early 90s. I was blessed to see so many good shows there. Kitsap county was a great place to grow up. Still lots of old school band guys around here playing.
Thanks for hanging with us in the PNW. Grand finale of mxpx/Bremerton was not expected, but greatly appreciated. To tie this and your Portland video together, I've seen them at the Star theater and the Wonder Ballroom (as well as other venues not mentioned in your video). Some day I hope to see them on their own turf... also want to see Mike with Goldfinger. Again, thanks for coming, can't wait for you to come back, there's so much more to see!
I lived in Bremerton when my ship was in the shipyard, but that was in the early 80s. I've been back in Bremerton since when I go to the Pacific Northwest,which is often.
I enjoy your retrospective subject matter from time to time. I was heavy into punk in the 90s as well, but our band never made it past rehearsal studios and didn't know you were in Guttermouth. I used to record hours of college radio broadcasts and make mixtapes of my favorite songs, and your band was one of them. So cool to still be liking your content after all these years!!
Damn it. I totally saw you. We live in Kirkland and took the ferry over to Kitsap for the day. I was leaving Anthony’s restaurant and saw you walking. I told my wife I think it’s a guy I watch on UA-cam. She asked me if I wanted to stop to say hi and I said no, that’s probably not him. So bummed I didn’t stop. Anyway, keep up the good work. Haha.
Adam we've been watching your UA-cam videos for years. We were shocked to see you that you came to our hometown Bremerton. Only bad thing is you missed a lot of interesting things. For example the Navy ship you saw the Turner Joy, was said to have been sunk at the Gulf of Tonkin in Vietnam, I was part of the reason for the start of the war in Vietnam. But as you personally saw that ship was not sunk. Isn't that interesting? Anyway there's a lot of other interesting things in the area. Thank you for making Bremerton part of your show we enjoyed seeing you in our town.
"I was part of the reason for the start of the war in Vietnam" is probably not the best pick up line to use in a singles bar, or anywhere for that matter. Just sayin'.
Heck yeah! WE'LL GO ALL OUT! I have an MxPx / Descendents tattoo with a long story that starts with MxPx being my lifelong favorite band! THIS IS SO COOL! Remember, in all things, stay punk!
Wow you were in my home town! It was fun seeing all the places I know so well. Been to that Starbucks many times on my commute to Seattle via ferry. Thanks for the fun vlogs you do!
My wife used to be neighbors with Mike Herrera’s aunt. She got to see them practice in their garage all the time. I think I’ve mentioned that to you before when we last met. It’s also fun to take the ferry from Bremerton to downtown Seattle.
My Navy ship did an overhaul at the shipyard. We called it "Bummerton" because we loved the sunshine. It looks great with the waterfront condos. Thanks for the tour!
First want to say thank you Adam for your contribution and my punk rock experience of the 90s with Guttermouth and I still listen to all the 90s punk rock music to this day there’s nothing like it and thanks again for this awesome video🔥🔥
I bought an original copy of Life in General vinyl two days ago!!!! Listening to it brought back so many memories. This video is the icing on the cake! Thanks Adam
Loved our time in Pacific NW in 2019. Vlogged it a bit but we were just starting out so no idea what we were doing! Gotta get back there again someday. ATW hits up all the good spots! Great vlogging as always my friend!
You should take the ferry across the puget at night. OMG. Seattle at night from the ferry is amazing. I did it in 2001ish. I still remember my trip to Wa state 20 yrs later.
Can definitely confirm the KMart location since I went there a few times before it closed. As for the L shaped building, the picture from the water looks very much to be the Seattle side of the water, south of the ferry terminal there. It's weird seeing the area though different eyes after living in Kitsap County for the last 16 years.
17:19 That use to be an Eagles hardware store, the Kmart was to the far right at the end of the next building where Child services and the storage units are.
Mike, To. & Yuri all still live in Bremerton. Mike only lives there part time as he also has a house in Texas. His Texas house was the one he got as part of the show “fixer upper” with Chip and Joanna Gaines. Mike has a studio in Bremerton named “monkey trench studios. There was a period when the band went Tom and Yuri didn’t play many live shows as they got full time jobs in the ship yards, at that time Mike played some shows under the name “mxpx all stars.” But since they reunion show they hav even playing semi regularly live again. Mike is also the live bassist for Goldfinger now. The members had various side projects including the cooties, Arthur, and tumbledown. Knowing your music sensibilities I would suggest the cooties.
@@TheDailyWoo Local here - Played with them at the Charleston Theater (3:40) in Bremerton A LONG TIME Ago... like Myspace was a thing. They would play all around the county and would always be promoting their music locally - The Charleston, Roxy, and Admiral theaters in Bremerton were the go to spots. The Local demographic for Kitsap County is mostly military and retired - so MXPX coming out of bremerton is really odd... I believe Mike went country a few years back and it scared a lot of good honest people who were all about the rock. I actually went to Mikes house a few times while dating a girl who new him. The Move to Bremerton song - the music video was filmed mostly on the Ferry and in Seattle... as was noted. Also the Ferry ride they filmed on - was on the boat leaving bremerton... only locals would realize it. There's only a few Kitsap locations shown in the music video. IF THEY HAD SHOWN BREMERTON IN 2000-2008 - the state of the town would have been much much much worse. Bremerton has been rebuilding really for the last 20-30 years... the down town area especially used to be a very dark and scary place back when MXPX was coming up. 15:00 - That photo is of the cargo loading dock in Seattle. It was actually taken from the Smith Tower which was the tallest building in Seattle and West of the Mississippi for a while. But not bremerton. 17:20 - The KMART scene was filmed in Bremerton - the kmart is now a storage facility (which I guess is different than Kmart). That was the exact location of the KMART store. Back then, that Mexican restaurant was a taco bell. That parking lot, while MXPX was coming up, would turn into a meeting spot for local high schoolers with un-mufflered cars every thursday night. Also - The Central Kitsap School was torn down and relocated actually just up a small hill - the one shown in the video is no more. 21:00 - Yes - that house still exists and no Mike does not live there. IN FACT - 18:33 - the off ramp for Ridgetop ( north HWY 303) - That exit is less than 2,000 feet from the house. Mike lived in Silverdale... NOT BREMERTON... The best part about that song - MXPX lived in Silverdale their whole lives to the best of my knowledge. Silverdale is the next town over to Bremerton. I guess it's harder to Rhyme "Silverdale". Great Vid Adam!
@@graham974 That was filmed at the Oregon State Hospital in Salem Oregon. It is still a functioning mental hospital for people who are considered criminally insane. But they also have a small museum there. I live about 2 miles from it.
That building was indeed a Kmart. It was at the far right of the complex. Central Kitsap High School is where my kids went. It was completely rebuilt a few years ago. The only remaining part of the old school is now the public library and some school district offices. It is down the hill from the current school.
I’m a Bremerton girl. The ship you noted from the Ferry Dock is the Turner Joy. It’s a floating museum. You should have checked it out! So cool! A lot of the buildings that were in the video have been demolished and new buildings built in their place in the local renovation/revitalization process. Central Kitsap High School is completely renovated! I used to cut school and sneak out there to see my boyfriend in the late 70’s😂
Aww...you were just a few miles from my home in Silverdale. Did you know that the movie An Officer and a Gentleman was filmed in the town of Port Townsend at Fort Worden about an hour from Bremerton and the opening scene of Richard Gere sitting on his motorcycle in front of several navy ships was filmed in Bremerton at Puget Sound Naval Station.
Bet the view from those condos was good, good looking place to live, sounds like you need to go back Adam, unfinished business on the band, enjoyed these jaunts and tours, interesting angle from behind your steering wheel lol, See you in the next vlog, wherever that will be
So Cool! I grew up in Edmonds Washington and Yuri, the drummer from MxPx, was my best friend in elementary school. He went to my moms daycare. He moved to Kingston across the ferry in middle school and I would go stay at his house every once in a while. In high school he moved to Bremerton and we didn't hang out as much but his mom would send my mom a Christmas card every year and mentioned he was in a band. I didn't think much of it since a lot of high school kids start bands but then one day I happened to see him on a video on MTV! Crazy!
Adam, I've watched you for YEARS and NEVER thought I'd see you make a video on my hometown of Bremerton!! Wild. In middle school, when we didn't like a girl, we called her a "Bremalo" 🤣🤣🤣
Love this so much. I was born in Tacoma in 92 and grew up OBSESSED with mxpx. This video makes my heart so warm.
The fish with a man hooked is classic poetic justice. That was cool.
Awwww...love Bremerton. I lived in Port Orchard and worked in Bremerton right across the Roxy, Moved back to California 2 years ago, go to forks to see the inspiration of twilight ❤️
I used to wait at that Starbucks for the foot ferry to go home after work ❤️
I first heard of them when I bought their album slowly going the way of the buffalo. Great band!
They are really good . I love that album
The rooftop scene from MxPX's "Want Ad" video is the Interurban Building at 157 Yesler Way, Seattle, WA. The double deck freeway along the waterfront visible in the camera pan was the Alaskan Way Viaduct that was torn down a few years ago.

Thanks for the heads up ! Very cool
MxPx is my all time favorite band. My older brother took me to my first concert which was MxPx when i was 13 back in 1998. Their music has always been there for me when life gets hard.
Hey Adam, you should go towards the northeast next, I’ve never seen Vermont, New Hampshire or Maine on the channel, there’s a lot of beautiful countryside and I guarantee a TON of old towns that backroads could take you to, I think it would be intriguing to the viewer and interesting to you. You could do one of your “Americans backroads and forgotten towns” series videos
HEY ATW...I CAN'T SAY I'M NOT SAD TO SEE YOU GO. IT HAS BEEN such a cool week, full of people, places and things I thought I would never get to see. I didn't realize how beautiful the Pacific NW is, but thanks to your daily vlogs, I have now traveled there. Thank you.
Want to really fall in love with the PNW, you gotta do a summer visit.
@@Brendan_Keyport-WA7BMK i second that. Lived here all my life nothing like it!
Just recently got into MxPx and now theyre my favorite band, love nearly every song. Crazy to see this. Synchrony!
Adam Thank You for all your travels. I have learned a lot. Happy Travels
That downtown has a similar look to our downtown/Main Street. We have an entire sculpture walk that changes annually. It's pretty cool.
Great video of my home town. The parking lot in which you were in for Kmart was correct, but you needed to be on the other side of the Acetunos Taco shop. The DCYF building is the old Kmart. They ran across the street in front of the Clover leaf which is still there. I hope you enjoyed your time out here. We really loved your video!!
I'm glad to see Bremerton because I had relatives who lived there and they spoke so fondly of the area. Thanks Adam.
I loved that song! I have a feeling I’ll be listening to MxPx today. Thanks for taking me back. -Randy
Aww, I’m sad to see you leave our beautiful area. Our son is stationed there in Bremerton by the way. Anyhow I hope you don’t wait too long to return. Late spring/summer/early fall are especially wonderful.
well it was interesting I'm sure trying to find the parts of the song, my dad was NAVY so that old Navy ship was nice to see, we lived in Washington state when he was stationed in Whidbey Island
I was born in Bremerton! But grew up just north in Silverdale and Poulsbo. You should consider another trip to Kitsap and stay in Poulsbo the third weekend in May for Viking Fest- donut and Lutefisk eating contests, parades, Viking village, adorable downtown (very Norwegian). Would love to see a video you do of Poulsbo.
Lived there when I was young, my dad worked in a shop next to Brinkerhoffs store…lot of memories in this video, thanks ATW
Bremerton has deep roots for us. I lived there for 52 years. Seen a lot of growth. Our boys knew MXPX members. You should have went across the Manette bridge to the Manette tavern where they played. Thanks for the tour of Bremerton. Home of the Puget SoundNaval Shipyard!!! Great navy town!!
Welcome to my neck of the woods. That photo could have been taken on the mud flats in Tacoma. Central Kitsap High School where you were is a completely new school. I’m in Port Orchard. You drove through my town and didn’t even call me! Lol. Cool video.
Whaaaaat?! You were in my town yesterday? On my birthday?! So crazy watching you walk through my town. 😂
Grew up listening to a lot of MxPx so I love this. I grew up in Washington but very rarely went to Bremerton.
MXPX live at the show is an amazing album! Grew up listening to these guys ❤
Loved this week of PNW locations, you could easily do two weeks of movie location shoots if you travel 2 to 3 hours north to Vancouver, BC. Can't wait for your next PNW and hopefully see Kindergarten Cop locations. Great vids
I think he got his passport this year. Maybe his next few videos will be up in Vancouver. 🤞🏼
Thanks for doing some deep dives on punk rock from my younger days! 🥁🎸
Were you ever into ska bands from that era too? Bands like Reel Big Fish and Mighty Mighty Bosstones were my jam back in the day but naturally punk bands like MXPX and Rancid (among many others) were right there for me too.
Operation ivy!
Adam, I really have enjoyed watching you go here and there, Thank you so much for sharing with us.
I loved MXPX listened to them before they got popular in my Christian ska and punk days. I was wondering when I listened to that song as well. Thank you for sharing
Nice town! Your reaction to the fish catching the fisherman - so funny
MxPX 😍😍😍 I knew you’re one of my favorite UA-camrs for a reason.
That’s where my dad lives. Used to go up there every summer for a few weeks. Loved it there.
i find it so interesting seeing folks explore the place i grew up. on a side note i think the singer of MxPx actually works for the navy yard there. atleast he was in 2016 when i was there.
I just watched this and found it quite interesting. However, what was interesting to me was that this song kept playing in my mind as you meandered thru Bremerton etc. It hasn't played in my mind for decades.you brought it back Adam😉
"Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he laid his hat was hishome
And when he died, all he left us was alone
Papa was a rolling stone (my son, yeah)
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was alone...."
It's the 2nd version by The Temptations (the one that went #1). It's psychedelic tune sticks with you... (more than the lyrics). Now, in my mind it's your theme song looking to the sunset somewhere... 😊(it'll probably disappear after awhile).
i loved the pacific northwest videos, great to see adam in my state and the places i visit in oregon
This is Great, I have loved here for 30 years and never realized all this, Thank you.

Wait, wait, wait! You were in Guttermouth! Wow! I would listen to them back in the day.
An officer and a Gentleman was filmed partly in Bremerton and mostly in a town just north of there in Port Townsend.
Lived there for about seven years. Love Bremerton. I’ve seen Mike perform unannounced at the Manette Saloon. Awesome singer.
I was at that Manette show too. One of the best shows i’ve ever seen. The place went nuts.
Hey Adam I give all your videos a thumbs up good job in your videos that you do. I enjoy when you do movie and tv location videos it’s so cool I enjoy as a subscriber and view your videos I enjoy those type of videos ❤️ But I enjoy all your videos.
Oh and if you hadn’t left already, you should take the ferry over from there to Seattle. Nice ride, different view, only about 15 mins to the airport from the other side.
Oh wow, my husband's going to want to watch this one he's from Bremerton, his family is from there ❤️
Just found out you played with Guttermouth for a few years. That’s amazing! Love Guttermouth.
Also MXPX is awesome
I can't believe it, ATW. Bremerton WA is synonymous with the movie An Officer and a Gentleman (1982).
Natashas was a big venue for punk bands late 80s early 90s. I was blessed to see so many good shows there. Kitsap county was a great place to grow up. Still lots of old school band guys around here playing.

I used to record hours of college radio broadcasts and make mixtapes of my favorite songs, and your band was one of them. So cool to still be liking your content after all these years!!
Is there a video he talks about being in guttermouth? I know their current guitarist Matt. Mark Adkins is a nut😂🤘
Damn it. I totally saw you. We live in Kirkland and took the ferry over to Kitsap for the day. I was leaving Anthony’s restaurant and saw you walking. I told my wife I think it’s a guy I watch on UA-cam. She asked me if I wanted to stop to say hi and I said no, that’s probably not him. So bummed I didn’t stop. Anyway, keep up the good work. Haha.
Adam we've been watching your UA-cam videos for years.
We were shocked to see you that you came to our hometown Bremerton. Only bad thing is you missed a lot of interesting things.
For example the Navy ship you saw the Turner Joy, was said to have been sunk at the Gulf of Tonkin in Vietnam, I was part of the reason for the start of the war in Vietnam. But as you personally saw that ship was not sunk. Isn't that interesting?
Anyway there's a lot of other interesting things in the area.
Thank you for making Bremerton part of your show we enjoyed seeing you in our town.
"I was part of the reason for the start of the war in Vietnam" is probably not the best pick up line to use in a singles bar, or anywhere for that matter. Just sayin'.
Heck yeah! WE'LL GO ALL OUT! I have an MxPx / Descendents tattoo with a long story that starts with MxPx being my lifelong favorite band! THIS IS SO COOL! Remember, in all things, stay punk!
Max Hale center. Stunning building. I luv olddie woldy sfuff. from 🇬🇧👍 an old cockney gal
Definitely not a failed video. I don't know MXPX, but I enjoyed seeing the town.
I've had a pen pal from bremerton from 1983 till present , Pitt ave :) love looking at the town all these years later....I live in nz
That picture you were trying to line up is of the downtown Seattle waterfront right by where the stadiums are now with West Seattle in the background.
Wow you were in my home town! It was fun seeing all the places I know so well. Been to that Starbucks many times on my commute to Seattle via ferry. Thanks for the fun vlogs you do!
Have safe travels home. Thanks for showing some of the Pacific Northwest. Hope you visit again at some point.
My wife used to be neighbors with Mike Herrera’s aunt. She got to see them practice in their garage all the time. I think I’ve mentioned that to you before when we last met. It’s also fun to take the ferry from Bremerton to downtown Seattle.
Ok Adam I am now watching twin peaks
Thanks to your video yesterday. 😊
14:34 That is the Seattle waterfront near Coleman Dock. The land mass across Elliot Bay is West Seattle and Duwamish Head.
Adam the woo keep your videos coming really really enjoy them
Yes! I've always wondered, too! Thank you!
Love MXPX! I also enjoyed Gutternouth. I would love for you to do a video talking about your time playing in punk bands!
My Navy ship did an overhaul at the shipyard. We called it "Bummerton" because we loved the sunshine. It looks great with the waterfront condos. Thanks for the tour!

It was a fun time
Well,at least you have the satisfaction of getting there. Wishing you a very safe journey to your next location💛🚘
Hello from Gatlinburg TN Mr Woo...I bet you've got a lot of airline miles 🌏🗺️
You were almost downtown. Down by the ferry terminal is more of Downtown Bremerton. But hey Callow is close enough 😀 Hope you enjoyed our small town.
I bought an original copy of Life in General vinyl two days ago!!!! Listening to it brought back so many memories. This video is the icing on the cake! Thanks Adam
I was born in Bremerton. Moved when I was 3. Gonna show this to my mom. See if she remembers anything.
Super cool content!!! I hear MxPx will be touring again in 2023!!!
I was born there, at the Naval Base Hospital. Was told that I was among some of the first kids born there, as it was newly built.
Old school Tooth and Nail records had some of the best bands that most people never heard of!
Loved our time in Pacific NW in 2019. Vlogged it a bit but we were just starting out so no idea what we were doing! Gotta get back there again someday. ATW hits up all the good spots! Great vlogging as always my friend!

MXPX - one of the few punk rock CDs we were allowed to have at Bible college in the 90s. 😂
Yep !
I really like these kind of videos. Thanks my friend
17:19 That use to be an Eagles hardware store, the Kmart was to the far right at the end of the next building where Child services and the storage units are.
You listened to Tooth and Nail Records as well? Small world! MXPX, Plank Eye, Sometime Sunday, those were my jams back in the era of 1993-94.
Mike, To. & Yuri all still live in Bremerton. Mike only lives there part time as he also has a house in Texas. His Texas house was the one he got as part of the show “fixer upper” with Chip and Joanna Gaines. Mike has a studio in Bremerton named “monkey trench studios. There was a period when the band went Tom and Yuri didn’t play many live shows as they got full time jobs in the ship yards, at that time Mike played some shows under the name “mxpx all stars.” But since they reunion show they hav even playing semi regularly live again. Mike is also the live bassist for Goldfinger now. The members had various side projects including the cooties, Arthur, and tumbledown. Knowing your music sensibilities I would suggest the cooties.
Thanks for all the info . I love goldfinger too
@@TheDailyWoo Local here - Played with them at the Charleston Theater (3:40) in Bremerton A LONG TIME Ago... like Myspace was a thing. They would play all around the county and would always be promoting their music locally - The Charleston, Roxy, and Admiral theaters in Bremerton were the go to spots. The Local demographic for Kitsap County is mostly military and retired - so MXPX coming out of bremerton is really odd...
I believe Mike went country a few years back and it scared a lot of good honest people who were all about the rock.
I actually went to Mikes house a few times while dating a girl who new him.
The Move to Bremerton song - the music video was filmed mostly on the Ferry and in Seattle... as was noted. Also the Ferry ride they filmed on - was on the boat leaving bremerton... only locals would realize it. There's only a few Kitsap locations shown in the music video. IF THEY HAD SHOWN BREMERTON IN 2000-2008 - the state of the town would have been much much much worse. Bremerton has been rebuilding really for the last 20-30 years... the down town area especially used to be a very dark and scary place back when MXPX was coming up.
15:00 - That photo is of the cargo loading dock in Seattle. It was actually taken from the Smith Tower which was the tallest building in Seattle and West of the Mississippi for a while. But not bremerton.
17:20 - The KMART scene was filmed in Bremerton - the kmart is now a storage facility (which I guess is different than Kmart). That was the exact location of the KMART store. Back then, that Mexican restaurant was a taco bell. That parking lot, while MXPX was coming up, would turn into a meeting spot for local high schoolers with un-mufflered cars every thursday night.
Also - The Central Kitsap School was torn down and relocated actually just up a small hill - the one shown in the video is no more.
21:00 - Yes - that house still exists and no Mike does not live there. IN FACT - 18:33 - the off ramp for Ridgetop ( north HWY 303) - That exit is less than 2,000 feet from the house. Mike lived in Silverdale... NOT BREMERTON...
The best part about that song - MXPX lived in Silverdale their whole lives to the best of my knowledge. Silverdale is the next town over to Bremerton. I guess it's harder to Rhyme "Silverdale".
Great Vid Adam!
To be honest this song should be called “Move to Seattle”!!!!
@@longmatey80 thanks for all the info! I wish ATW would have taken you along with him on this video!
I hope your buddy took you out to the gorge when you were in oregon! It would be a shame if you missed it! Please come back anytime!
I was hoping you'd come down to Eugene for some Animal House filming locations! Perhaps another time.
Ken Kesey country. Did they film One flew over the cuckoo's nest there too?
Another time for sure . I’ll be back one day
@@graham974 That was filmed at the Oregon State Hospital in Salem Oregon. It is still a functioning mental hospital for people who are considered criminally insane. But they also have a small museum there. I live about 2 miles from it.
I have never listened to MxPx until now. Good stuff.
Can't wait for you to come back again for the Kindergarten Cop movie location.
Nice! I used to listen to some Magnified Plaid myself back in the day!
I keep waiting for you to get down to the ferry dock area. That's got the most excitement...
That building was indeed a Kmart. It was at the far right of the complex.
Central Kitsap High School is where my kids went. It was completely rebuilt a few years ago. The only remaining part of the old school is now the public library and some school district offices. It is down the hill from the current school.
Adam, really enjoyed your vlog! Love the movie theaters!
I’m a Bremerton girl. The ship you noted from the Ferry Dock is the Turner Joy. It’s a floating museum. You should have checked it out! So cool!
A lot of the buildings that were in the video have been demolished and new buildings built in their place in the local renovation/revitalization process.
Central Kitsap High School is completely renovated! I used to cut school and sneak out there to see my boyfriend in the late 70’s😂
Aww...you were just a few miles from my home in Silverdale. Did you know that the movie An Officer and a Gentleman was filmed in the town of Port Townsend at Fort Worden about an hour from Bremerton and the opening scene of Richard Gere sitting on his motorcycle in front of several navy ships was filmed in Bremerton at Puget Sound Naval Station.
Bet the view from those condos was good, good looking place to live, sounds like you need to go back Adam, unfinished business on the band, enjoyed these jaunts and tours, interesting angle from behind your steering wheel lol, See you in the next vlog, wherever that will be
This was so entertaining, Adam. You never let us down.🤗👏🤠 I'm surprised there were so few people out and about such a cool area.
So Cool! I grew up in Edmonds Washington and Yuri, the drummer from MxPx, was my best friend in elementary school. He went to my moms daycare. He moved to Kingston across the ferry in middle school and I would go stay at his house every once in a while. In high school he moved to Bremerton and we didn't hang out as much but his mom would send my mom a Christmas card every year and mentioned he was in a band. I didn't think much of it since a lot of high school kids start bands but then one day I happened to see him on a video on MTV! Crazy!
I'm watching this video in Edmonds right now! What school did Yuri go to? That's so cool I had no idea he was originally from Edmonds
@@DimJongUn Westgate Elementary! On 220th
@@WalkWithRuby crazy! My in laws live on 96th just down the street. So cool
@@DimJongUn Cool! My moms daycare that he went to and the house I grew up in is a couple houses east of 92nd on 220th.
That’s wild . Thanks for the comment , pretty dang cool

You should do a follow up, that entire area of old kmart is bangin!!!!
