Awesome clip! My late uncle turned me on to Social Distortion about 15 years ago. Love their sound. Kind of like rockabilly meets punk. Mike almost resembles a younger Mickey Rourke here. Had to google Mike’s age. Dude is 58 now! Wow.
3 Chords and the truth. 6 LPs and a T-shirt: 1 - KC And the Sunshine Band "Self-Titled" 1978 2 - Unsure which Billy Joel LP this is 3 - Earth, Wind & Fire "I Am" 1979 4 - The Doobie Brothers "Stampede" 1975 5 - Elton John "Madman Across the Water" 1971 6 - Peter Frampton "Frampton Comes Alive" 1975 (Second appearance of this Record) Adam is showing off a Foreigner 4 shirt. Oh that we all could be so cool. GGGWY!
He was blessed with some good looks...I was more into new York and oi punk but then saw a social d video and was mesmerized by his looks I'm not normally a shallow person lol
I met Mike back in 97 when they played the Live 105 BFD festival. Very cool dude! Got my CD signed. I would love to meet and chat with him again. Also in that bill was the headliner of all headliners - The Cure
Fucking hell, the choice of his parents tastes in music is IDENTICAL to my own. I also turned to punk music as a teen, but to me Cash, Nelson, Haggard, Reeves etc. ALL had the basics of the punk outlook on life years before Rock 'n' Roll took notice. Just like Punk, Outlaw Country wasn't originally meant as a flattering term in some circles of society at the time.
My friends' band in high school covered Mommy's Little Monster...no idea what the song was, who the band was but I knew I loved it...then discovered the "Social Distortion" album a year later. You sat down with Mike Ness. Awesome.
Mike Ness. One of the most awesome trail blazers
Wow, Ness aged rather well

Mickey R wishes he looked like Ness. Agreed! 😉
Most underrated guitarist ever

I worked in a record store in the 90's. Always had Social Distortion and Reverend Horton
Heat playing. No one else got it.
Heard the Rev at Trader Joe's a few weeks ago, one of his Christmas songs
I've seen him a few times!! Hell of a showman
Johnny Cash was a legend in Country Music 🎵 🎸. The MAN in BLACK! Great job PROFESSOR ! We love the show in Sweet Home Alabama!

That's one cool table! 😎
Mike Ness is still hot AF 🥴😍☺
You know it's true
Still the best Music Channel on the Tube.
Social Distortion has lots of great songs. 1945, Ball and Chain, Story of My Life, Bad Luck, and this excellent cover.
Cold feelings 🥶

Thank You Prof! I saw Mike Ness and Social D in Tucson years back. Hold Fast!

The last two songs my late uncle and I listened to were Ring if Fire and Ball and Chain . He passed away the same year . A memory I'll always have.
Yeah I met him too we were hanging out and sniffing cocaine and jamming good times
I have my issues with Mike, but his take here is spot on. I feel the exact same way.
That's the calmest chihuahua I've ever seen
thank for doing this
