@EdCollects I'm from Long Beach and saw them live many times when they played backyard keg parties. My friends had a band that played with them a couple times. We definitely liked their music and knew they were gaining fans, but had I known that he wasn't going to live longer I would have spent more time up front watching them play and less time drinking and chasing girls lol. Early man would always get a mosh pit going and usually they would play for at least an hour before cops would come and break up the party. Funny thing is that I remember loving the music but thinking they were kind of dirty for lack of a better word. On a side note, my childhood neighbor friend sold a bag of chronic to snoop dog at the house of one of the guys in the band that played with Sublime. Snoop was offering them a not so good contract of some kind which they ultimately turned down. Still listen to Sublime often and it always reminds me of high school in the early 90's and the frequent keg parties.

He died at a motel on Judah Street in San Francisco next to the N Judah train line. Blocks away from the beach. Every time I see it or go by it I think about him. I was lucky enough to be alive when he was alive listening to his music. He played my friends house party in Long Beach in their early days for an eight ball of cocaine and some beer. No joke. These were my older friends but I wish you could've lived long enough to grow out of that, I think he was on his way. RIP Louie Dog and Bradley. And that whole genre. They would've sold probably 80 million records if he was alive today, they missed out on that entire wave essentially
