Great pics Thanks. What kind of camera did u use?

[Kymery]

Ivan, those are some great pics! Very clear!! Dang, brings back the fun I had that day! Hey notice the guy in the white straw hat in the crowd, to the left of the pic, his hat is on backwards!! ahahaha...there was a guy at the main stage, with his hat on backwards, kept taking it off to cheer on the band and he never noticed...too funny.

BUT THANK YOU..I loved Mike Ness and those are great pics.

[honkytonkangel]

OH MY FREAKING GOD!!!! :eek: :eek: Those pics are unreal!!! Thank you!!! That was one of my favorite performances of the entire weekend, esp since I wasn't sure what to expect....Mike Ness..*sigh*:rolleyes:

[Kymery]

Wasn't that just a fun show? I wanted to get out on a dance floor and do my old swing dancing, throw me in the air, fly me over my head, thru the legs etc...I sure miss those days. I loved the Rocka-billy days for sure!

[ivankay]

Great pics Thanks. What kind of camera did u use?

i used a Canon 40D and Canon G9. At that time i was using a 28-135mm 3.5-5.6 with an image stabelizer for the 40D at the time of these pictures. i had a photo pass to bring in the SLR.

i thought some of you might like this. This is from the Mike Ness thread (http://coachella.com/forum/showthread.php?t=16958) on the Coachella Board. The guy who posted these got them from mikeness.com:


Goddamn I wish I could have been at this:

Social Distortion's Mike Ness is joined on stage by Bruce Springsteen at The Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ, on May 17. On a break from touring with the E-Street Band, Springsteen hopped on stage to play with Ness and his band during an encore. They performed four songs together, including a cover of "I Fought The Law."

[Kymery]

Ivan...love that pics of you...great with the background and your intent and yet sly look.

Now I can look for you next year.

I have visited the Coachella site...reminds me of my Punk days and the fun we had. That board is a bit radical...but a hoot to read thru.

[raising rednecks]

Mike Ness is great. Back in my high school days we played shows all over so cal as an opening band for those guys.

[Kymery]

I was a HUUGE rockabilly fan. Hung with several bands. Dancing all night. Love to swing! I still have my ole 45's from the blasters and many more!

[raising rednecks]

45's.......... damn I thought I was old. Wait. I know what 45's are.

[Kymery]

45's.......... damn I thought I was old. Wait. I know what 45's are.

Man..you are racking up the pain meter boy!!

I used to DJ for a few years during the early 80's too...so i have a pretty cool collections of 45's and 33's, punk, rock, new-ro etc.

[abra]

RR... Let's hear more about that!! Tell us about your band and what instrument you played. Drums get extra kudos from me! :rolleyes:

[raising rednecks]

I've played drums for as long as I can remember.I started playing in bands in the 5th grade. That's pretty much all I did til my early twenties. Then that pay to play crap came out in hollywood and most of the bigger clubs. I refused to pay a club $1500 to play so they can sell $8 drinks to the people we bring in. Since then I dropped out and just play on my own or jam with friends once in a while.

[abra]

That's awesome!! I'm an aspiring drum student... Just started learning about a year or so ago at the ripe old age of 36! I've always loved them and finally decided "what the heck" - and signed up for lessons. Would love any advice you have to offer. = ) Wish I could see you play. Playing since 5th grade... bet yer gooooooood. ; )

[Hankdog]

Mike Ness and band will be at the B.U.T December 16. He'll also be at the Coach House in SJC December 10 with James Intveld-attend this show at your own risk. I believe the two other shows on the sixth & ninth are sold out.

[abra]

What's the B.U.T? Am I totally out of it, er what?

[honkytonkangel]

Belly Up Tavern.....its in Solana Beach (SD).....its one of my favorite venues!!! I am most likely gonna be at that show.....

[Rose]

What's the B.U.T? Am I totally out of it, er what?

I was wondering the same thing. :cool:

[Hankdog]

What's the B.U.T? Am I totally out of it, er what?

The BUT is Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach.

[Hankdog]

What's the B.U.T? Am I totally out of it, er what?

Sorry didn't see that someone else replied. It is a sweet venue. The acoustics aren't all that great. The Coach House is better in my opinion.

I was a HUUGE rockabilly fan. Hung with several bands. Dancing all night. Love to swing! I still have my ole 45's from the blasters and many more!

Were you into the Alley cats? The bass player from one of my bands was a huge fan of theirs. Whenever I quit their drummer filled the void. The bass player also had a few rockabilly bands but I don't know which ones. His name was Danny Phillips but he changed his last name when he went rockabilly.

[Kymery]

Love Rockabilly, used to hang with the Blasters a bit, as well as a few other great bands. I was the full Rockabilly chick, dressed the part, danced my arse off, swing, throw me in the air, under, around, down and OUT!! whoooo those were the days!

[Hankdog]

The Blasters will be in Temecula March 20th, 2009 at the Temecula Community Theater which is an awesome venue; tickets are $20.00 each. The Derailers are also playing there February 20th minus Tony Villanueva. FYI- Flogging Molly @ Veijas this Sunday.

Whooo hooo...a good b-day present for me! I will have to put that on my calendar!
I remember back in 1982ish...I went to Hawaii with the KROQ crew. We got to see the GoGo's. We had a limo for the night, me, my friend Kimie and two guys. We were dressed completely Rocka-Billy, dresses, hair the works. We were leaving in the limo from parking in the back stage area and people thought we were Belinda and Gina from the GoGo's, they were throwing t-shirts into the car for us to sign, we then went over to The Wave bar...and they were there as well as Bill Bateman from the Blasters (and I beleive he was dating Belinda at the time) and he introduced me to Gina and her...I think it was Gina who said..."oh, so your are them, the ones that think you are us"..oh boy she was a bit mad i guess...hey not my fault! It was so funny, cuz people would come up to Kimie and I and ask if we were them and I had to keep pointing them out so they would go meet the right girls! I guess since we were dressed up, they must of thought we would be in a band???

It was the funnest times!!! I miss riding in the old cars, swing dancing, night after night, hanging with they boys, I would of loved the 50's!

Ok Abra...you are my new partner!

[WillieCash]

Social Distortion brought me to Johnny Cash, I will always owe Mike a debt of gratitude.

Like a dumb ass I gave my younger brother all my records years ago and now they're all missing. I did find an old X record (Under the Big Black Sun) this weekend while cleaning out the garage. Social D is like your favorite cheeseburger; nothing exotic but always good.

[wagonwheelfestival]

Oh wow, X... Haven't heard them in a long time... I saw them in concert with the Beastie Boys and Rage in the early 90's... That brings back some memories

[Hankdog]

They're still together and touring. In fact they were in San Diego last month. John Doe was great at the first Stagecoach in '07 and he busted out some old X tunes.

[wagonwheelfestival]

Oh no kiddin, how cool, I'm sorry I missed that one... Would love to see them again!

[raising rednecks]

we saw X at the OC fair last year I think. They opened for rollins. They were way better than his line up. I love Ness and SD.I played many shows with em in the early 80's.

Not much of a fan of Rollins even whe he was with Black Flag;Dez Cadena was better. X played Street Scene this year and tore it up for a bunch of old punks.

[wagonwheelfestival]

Ya know what Henry Rollins did that is awesome, his stand up comedy cd that he did... It is soooo smart and funny. It'll have you rollin! That guys a talented dude!

[wagonwheelfestival]

I'm gonna have to look for X soon and see where they are playin next, keep me updated if anyone hears about them comin to town. would love to go!

i was back and apologize for not getting Kenny shots. i was under the spell of Dale Watson at the time. In the next few weeks i'll be putting up a Stagecoach 2009, Day 1 thread. Hopefully it brings back good memories.

[bree621]

Looooved him in Social D and love him now! I missed him last year sadly : (
However, at a close friends funeral, he sat right behind us with this girl who you could tell was a pinup girl. Silly me didn't recognize him until I got home later that night and sat down and thought about it... crazy!
