Hot Dogs For Dinner, Cigarettes For Breakfast

Loaded up the car and headed down south for a bit of camping and surfing with some buds yesterday...Got a few waves before sundown then again in the am
Plenty of Minutemen jams around the fire as well

Waves weren't spectacular but it was super fun, not a bad way to spend a couple a days

Punk Rock Changed Our Lives

The other night I had the good fortune to be introduced to Mr. Mike Watt (a.k.a. the man in the van w/ a bass in his hand) of the Minutemen (and several other bands) an extremely nice fellow. He chatted with us outside of the club for quite a bit before and after the show and even gave us a tour of his new van, or boat as he called it. Hanging with the dude cemented my love for the Minutemen that much more. Here is a clip of Watt from the We Jam Econo DVD talking about his good friend, the late D. Boon, followed by an acoustic performance of one of my favorite jams, "History Lesson Part II."

A nice clip from a very interesting documentary on the band, a must watch for anyone remotely interested in the concept of punk. I also stumbled across this video the other day from the Kelly Blue Book Youtube page, Watt showing off the new Ford Econoline.

Enjoy...and in the words of Mike Watt, "Start your own band!"
