I'm a Mexican who was in the punk rock scene in the 90s. The straight edge kids were skin headed. They hated racists, drugs, and anything else they considered bad for your health.
Mooch is awesome, so interesting and articulate. Seen many of his past interviews but you got this one locked in. Looking forward to the next episode ✌️
I grew up in England as a greaser and we battled with the skinheads every week. Mooch is dead on about there being 2 factions of skins, those who were Neo Nazis and those who were in it for the music and fashion. I could listen to this guy talk all day long. He is obviously well educated and I will go out tomorrow and buy his book. Thanks Demons Row, always great interviews.
@DemonsRow Sharps are more common in Northern Cailfornia. Racist skins are mostly from southern Cailfornia. But later skins like Peni and other groups became affiliated with the AB. The racist ideology went on the back burner and racism was more about recruitment. They became more criminal and about making money. Lots of regular white dudes went to prison and became skinhead. They knew nothing about punk rock music or culture. It was about gang life. That's why some groups like Society of Aryan Skinheads and others went to war with the brand/Peni because they were about money not white supremacy.
Hold up wait a minute now, DAMN IT ! Your going to make me wait for the rest of the interview😂? I just sat down with a bbq turkey leg fresh off the grill and next thing i know the interview was over! Still a great interview though!
There was a group of skinheads in the SF Bay Area that were called the S.H.A.R.P. Skins that fought against racism. They had Black skinheads and Mexican Skins as well as Jewish Skins. It was pretty big back in the 80's. It was an abbreviation for Skin Heads Against Racial Prejudice. Used to go see a bunch of punk bands in S.F. at a place they called " The Farm" by Army and Potrero St. It was wild!
Fuckin right! I was a member of Anti Racist Action from 91ist through to 97 and there were a bunch of Sharps in the crew! I'm from Toronto in Canada and in the early 90's we chased off all the nazi skinheads that were in town, we were active as fuuuuk! I remember going to Columbus Ohio for one of the big meet up for all the North American chapters, it was a site to be seen :D. Good bunch of people, sad to see what Antifa has done to the movement.
Great interview I LOVE BIKERS ANY BIKER WHO RIDES RED WHITE AND BLUE AMERICA NEEDS YOU RIGHT NOW ALL OF YOU PLEASE BIKERS COME TOGETHER WE NEED YOUR STRENGTH
That's the entire Nazi/white power M.O. in a nutshell. They have no culture of their own for anything so they infiltrate, steal, and leech from actual cultures. Even the swastika was stolen.
@@DemonsRowJesus Christ is gonna make sure people like u whoever doesn’t go to church and believe in him and get involve with gang sellin drugs killing people are gonna burn in HELL and u gonna see how bad HELL really is it is Jesus Christ who controls the devil and u gonna suffer in hHELL for your sin and once your in HELL u stay there for eternity Jesus Christ won’t be there to save u the LORD does not like sinners and nonbelievers
We had skin heads like this around where I grew up. They called themselves SHARP's which stood for Skin Heads Against Racial Prejudice. There were a lot of different skin head factions around too, and it was during the time that punk had a resurgence in the mid 90's. Going to local shows and parties was always sketchy. SHARP's were the minority faction and there was a lot of violence in that scene.
Y3ah here too. I'm in New Zealand and our skinhead scene was both nazi dickheads and Boot Boyz who were not racist speed snorting weed smoking street fighting womanizing music loving stylish as F dudes. Hard as a coffin nail but friendly as if you were friendly as❤
@@Aussieknuckleheadssharp skins didn’t start until the 80’s in NYC … and there were no skins in the 50’s.. it started in the 60’s in the uk… so that’s bullshit.
Heh. I know members of 1% MCs who are doctors, university teachers... Patch means less, than what a person you are. I'm a "Specialist in youth works" by diploma, but I'm employeed as a translator. But the thing is I live very far away from US, that makes a difference, I guess.
@@Crusher2100 why? Please explain? Most therapist just tell you what you want to hear. Just because your a 1% doesn't mean your dumb. Please tell me your take on it I'm all ears
Being an old punk rocker, ex-skateboarder, graffiti writer, and riding motorcycle for quite some time, I instantly felt Mooch is my man. Dude, there’s something about those Oregon guys. Hell, I’m also a translator and I’m thinking about translating his book to my language 😊
cool one! mooch is a awesome communicator; true leader! funny sidestory: my cv is very similiar to mooch‘s (without joining the vagos mc of course because they are not around here in switzerland).
Gotta love those state investigation bureaus. NCSBI watched me for 6 months when I got out, told my brother I was on the straight and narrow...news flash, I wasn't (at the time).
Everyone that rides talks about identity and family. Till this day I don’t need a club to find my identity. I ride solo to this day and I can hold my own. People who know me now this about me. I am what you call a solo cholo and proud of it.
Funny, I’ve played in the same band for almost 30 years. We played this one bar in Grand Prairie Texas often and there would be Booze Fighters, Scorpions, Gryphons and other clubs. None of them beefed. Ever. They partied together. I always thought it was in deference to the owner but maybe just a truce in place. Lot of fun. They all treated us with respect and it was returned.
I didn’t even know how to pronounce vago until I seen them at the same local Harley dealership buying 2 bikes with me. I seen they had a strong group of diverse Mexican American/ American. I do usually hang around the other American group. They don’t accept me because I’m a mutt. So naturally I’m going with those who I align with
A few of the Vagos rode past me on the highway on my way back to S. Cal. from palm springs last year. Kinda intimidating seeing their colors on the back of their vests.
Mooch is more like a hospitalor or warrior monk. He understands the way of the warrior is death. Not someone else’s but his. Whereas most MC members are like knights Templar, muscle and purpose.
The Vagos in Redding were some really good guy I’ve heard and seen several times where one pulled over at a car that had broken down and gave them water and helped get them going or helped get Soto come it gets extremely hot there they’ve got mine and every single person I knows respect Redding needs more of them and men like them
Think of the possibilities if the diamonds could unite instead of wasting energy on hate because of past instances or a piece of cotton threaded on a jacket. Very enticing world of brotherhood, but after one digs deeper, that world is often filled with false impressions with law enforcement at every corner preying on weak links. Those logos are a sort of bull's eye, but in the right conditions, I could not resist the feeling of pride these clubs provide. Awesome content as usual from Sose.
So how does he get to start chapters for the mongols and then he joins the vagos can some one explain how you do that ? Did he start chapters for mongols with out being an actual mongol

Brilliant interview, Sose!
And shout out Mooch for sharing his story! I can't wait for part 2!
That's how it was with me and my dad, first time he took me riding on his bike when I was little, got me hooked, and wanted a motorcycle ever since.
What a great interview can't wait for part 2

S.h.a.r.p. stands for skinheads against racial prejudice
SHARP started in NYC in the late 80s

Some good history to be learned
I was a SHARP for years and help start WVC in the San Fernando valley. I remember Unity skins and DMS and all those guys too. Taking me back!
Finally one of the baddest 1%er’s!
Don't judge a book by its cover, mooch is very intelligent
Nobody's judging him, nowadays...Every barista, bartender, & Hipster mom in Brooklyn has more tattoos than him

Great interview I LOVE BIKERS ANY BIKER WHO RIDES RED WHITE AND BLUE AMERICA NEEDS YOU RIGHT NOW ALL OF YOU PLEASE BIKERS COME TOGETHER WE NEED YOUR STRENGTH
We need red and white specifically to lend a hand… leave blue out of it… just saying.
When people found out his name was mooch ,they didn’t make fun of him for not having or needing , they asked him what they could give him ….different
I'm an old skin head in England. What he says is true. Og skin heads AIN'T racist. Neo nazi is different.
Oi Oi, greetz from Austria. (aged 50)
I done time in California for years ran with the southern Hispanics and I knew plenty of solid good skin heads
So is it apologetically prowhite? Or just apologetically white?
That's the entire Nazi/white power M.O. in a nutshell. They have no culture of their own for anything so they infiltrate, steal, and leech from actual cultures. Even the swastika was stolen.
@@palepride7530it’s based on blue collar workers. Look up “SHARP skinhead” on google.

Thank you
I been waiting for this interview!!! Mooch needs to make a movie to his book!!!!
I really like your interviews with various people in the biker culture. They are fascinating. Keep them coming.
Thanks, will do!

Dope 3part interview. Mooch story was fascinating.
Appreciate that part 4 drops tomm
Love learning histories compared to present. Love u Sose❤🎉
love you too dee thanks
Thanks for doing the mic set up. Eliminates the back ground noise. Good work
Things dont always work out
Well spoken young man - great interview!
thank you
The grim reapers treated me great when I went to their clubhouse in Kentucky!!!
Hey Sose…the question you asked about smaller clubs and the real brotherhood kinda reminds me of what happened in “The Bikeriders”
This is awesome! Super interview! Very interesting! Now I’m going to have to purchase the book!!
Glad
Gotta love those state investigation bureaus. NCSBI watched me for 6 months when I got out, told my brother I was on the straight and narrow...news flash, I wasn't (at the time).
Those is very well done next episodes going be 🔥🔥
Thank you
Mooch seems so humble
Berkeley had alot of punk bands play at a warehouse on Gillman St.
Everyone that rides talks about identity and family. Till this day I don’t need a club to find my identity. I ride solo to this day and I can hold my own. People who know me now this about me. I am what you call a solo cholo and proud of it.
Maybe people struggle more than you did. I'm glad you found the easy way.
Got here late, but enjoyed your show! Thanks⚡️
Thanks for watching!
Sose I am really digging these interviews. Keep up the great work.
I appreciate you
@@DemonsRowHey Ghost will you ever interview a Mobster

In countries like Australia, a skinhead is simply a man who shaves his head bald.

Brotherhood no brotherhood gang no gang it all depends who you hang out with if they have your back and vice verses that's your team
The existence of brotherhood question , I think can be explored by taking into consideration , Dunbars number.
