When you were in a punk band in '83 all the way through '88 or so, there was no hope of ever making a living, because no punk band had ever done it. We just did it because we loved it. There was no future. I went to college and real estate school, but I always just wanted to play music with my best friends. It was about saying things you just want to say and not caring what other people think.
Throughout the '90s and 2000s (including 1994's seminal album "Punk in Drublic"), they became one of the most revered and influential bands in the genre due largely to their unique combination of inappropriate humor, unremorseful attitude, catchy tunes and surprisingly intelligent lyrics. Not only did they define the sound of West Coast punk rock alongside their SoCal contemporaries.
