Took me until i was 38 to wake up , and sober up. Things still haunt me from my past.. I try to look forward tords a better future, in my 40s, to come.

what a heart Jack has

I want that Mesa Theater shirt that Eric Blair is wearing. That's some Costa Mesa history right there.

Punk rock was brewing in the 1940's and 50's. Lucky White and his Dude Ranch Playboys, Lucky had a mohawk in 1958. He was forced by his handlers to wear his cowboy hat on stage when he performed. His song with Leodie Jackson, THAT NAGGIN WIFE OF MINE was banned in 1946. The music Industry and the fans weren't ready for that kind of song against women or that kind of look yet. 🤣

Your book Untamed, I remember you guys did a show at the Galaxy and did a book signing there Jack.

Tender Fury's version of 'Green eyed Lady' Will blow the top of your skull off. I've only heard it live. At Scream. Is it recorded anywhere? Jack Rules! Thancks for the great music Mr. Grisham.

TSOL were great man..

thank you so much for posting this. i am hoping that this is the eric blair site.anyway, whatever it is, thx for the post. jack g is the real deal. he is also one of the sweetest, most nice people i have had the pleasure of speaking with at vacation vinyl one night post a book appearance & at shows. not sure why anyone would try and validate punk is still around based on an interview. point, punk never left, never died. it is great that folks like JG still write, do interviews,talk, etc...oi

8:39 "Super-criminal Jack" hahahaha!

I know in that one movie American hard core jack says so fucked up shit and you just get that he’s totally serious and people said he wasn’t a guy to fuck with

I've read it. The stuff he did was so fucked up and heavy i had to put it down for a week before i went back to it. Put it this way man If he'd been caught and prosecuted for all the stuff he did collectively he would've been locked up and never let out. It's defo worth reading especially if you're a fan but it's not easy reading.

We need a movie Jack ...

He looks like what huell howser would look like if he had stopped working out and dyed his hair black. And if he were still alive.

1st! this is a great interview . just like the others.

"they're"... not "their". Well Adam- you were in Philly shows in the 90s. So you have no idea what happened in 80-81-82-83. You see a video and you somehow dissect this person? Idealistic hipster? serious? Yeah- today he has funny fancy glasses- but back in the day? I'm from San Diego, and we had a patently violent punk scene that was known internationally- and even we though twice when TSOL was coming down. You betray your ignorance. (shrug)

I wish Jack would take his glasses off his eyes tell/so much

@rikitocker naw a movie wouldnt do him justice.I bet if someone potrayed him in a movie they would try and be lead singer of a punk band like shane west lol

World of Pain, Gehenna, Antioch Arrow, Nation Of Ulysses yea i know the SD rep it was still apparent in the 90's and still is but just because i didn't live the early 80's doesn't mean i don't know shit about it, fine i'm ignorant, paint me how ever you like, whatever man. A buddy of mine is actually moving out there in Jan, got a job with Rockstar San Diego up in Carlsbad.

jack was the real thing. makes you wonder if real punk is really dead.

What about the violence? Would you change the assaults etc

I've bought his Cd's and I love him and his lyrics and his band, But I don't buy his bullshit and I would only buy his book for toilet paper in a survival situation so I would have something humorous to read to thoroughly wipe my ass with.

wheres the humility, taking credit for what god has given you an oppurtunity to do

だれか日本語字幕付けてくれ

And the violence i've seen at Philly hardcore shows in the late 90's tops this.

Whats this story about kidnapping a girl? how did that happened?lol
