0:57
I'm not going to argue with you, I
0:59
do realize the importance of
1:01
that record and the greatness of that
1:03
record, but it took me, I
1:06
didn't want to listen to Neil Young, I
1:08
wanted to listen to Uriah Heap, I wanted
1:10
to listen to Black Sabbath, I wanted to
1:13
listen to Ted Nugent, you motherfuckers, if you
1:15

1:42
Straight up bad music.
1:47
The rock and roll time travel erases
1:50
his accomplishments from the world of
1:52
positivity because of rock and roll
1:54
time travel. You know I almost
1:56
bought that Amboy Dukes album today,
1:58
we were shopping a over here at
2:00
the record store, Damian and I,
2:03
and I picked up that Amboy Dukes
2:05
album with Journey to the Center of
2:07
Your Mind, which is an amazing song.
2:10
What was the album after Free For All? Was
2:13
it Cat Scratch Fever? I
2:15
think so, yeah. I mean, I'm cool up
2:17
through and including Double Live Gonzo, and then
2:19
after that, I'm so done with that. And
2:22
then, of course I did. And
2:25
then when he did all his weird Republican
2:27
shit, then I was like extra special done
2:29
with him. You know he's always been like
2:31
that. He just like... Yeah, but he didn't
2:33
have to rub it in our face. He just kept it on
2:35
the down low. He knew how
2:37
to market himself back then. He'd have to rub it
2:39
in our fucking face. Right.
2:42
So, I guess this is gonna be the
2:45
coolest episode of Turn Out of Punk Ever, because
2:48
this is just gonna be... No, no, this is
2:50
just me. Oh, this is really great so
2:52
far. This is awesome. This is amazing.
2:54
What are you talking about? This is incredible. It's
2:58
like every dream, we're
3:00
all like super smart and stuff and
3:02
really insightful, yeah. So, hey look, I
3:04
ran into the oldest stern brother at
3:08
the Starbucks in the Golden Nugget when
3:10
we were at Las Vegas Punk Rock
3:12
Bowling this last time. And he asked
3:14
me how I was doing, and I
3:16
looked at him and I was like
3:18
really run down. I hadn't
3:20
got my coffee yet, and
3:22
he was all jazzed. He
3:25
was psyched because he'd got his coffee.
3:27
And I said, dude, I'm feeling like I'm
3:30
61 years old. And
3:35
we started to converse a little bit more.
3:37
And then I
3:39
will be in a couple of months. Oh
3:42
fuck, why did I think... Oh, it doesn't. Why
3:44
didn't you think, what did you think? I was
3:46
41 or 31? I
3:48
was like 39, I don't know. Hold
3:50
on, hold on. You were 69. You
3:54
used to be seven years older than me. So
3:56
I'm... I think you're still seven years old. Yeah, yeah,
3:58
yeah, yeah, I'm just saying. When we were kids, I was
4:01
eight and you were like about to, you were in the
4:03
middle of high school
4:11
when I was eight. Okay. So you're eight years older
4:13
than me. Okay. I'm going
4:15
to be 53 in a while and you're going to be 61. Perfect.
4:19
Okay. I like it. Next
4:21
question. It adds up. It
4:23
adds up. Well, but I didn't get to finish,
4:26
but I'm having this conversation with the oldest
4:28
of the Stern brothers and he looked at
4:31
me and he said, Keith, what else would
4:33
you be doing? Well,
4:36
you had a good paralegal career on the way. You were
4:38
going to be an attorney, right? No,
4:40
you're thinking of lucky. Your
4:43
counter. I'm not thinking of lucky. Your
4:45
counterpart in the circle juror. He's no
4:47
paralegal leader. That guy's the actual real
4:50
deal lawyer. No, he's not. No,
4:53
he's not. How could you be 50 and
4:56
not pass the bar? Lucky
4:58
layerr. How could you be 50
5:00
and not pass the bar? Because
5:03
the California state bar exam is one
5:05
of the toughest. There's plenty,
5:07
plenty fucking attorneys out there and
5:10
they're not 50. So
5:13
the way I do this podcast normally is I find out
5:15
how people got in a punk and we just kind of
5:18
go from there. We're not doing it like that. No, we're
5:20
not. No, we're not. Not at all. But
5:22
I do want to talk. We got to figure out how
5:24
we're getting out of. I do want to talk to Getho
5:27
about seeing the Stooges at the Whiskey and
5:30
was that like a pivotal moment? No,
5:32
you need to have billion on this
5:34
conversation because he's going to tell you
5:37
that Metallic KO is the
5:39
greatest live album ever recorded.
5:42
Really? Oh yeah. More
5:44
than Kick Out the Jams? Even
5:46
more than Intensities in Two Cities
5:49
or Ten Cities or... More
5:51
fucking... What's the
5:53
motivation of what? It comes alive. It comes
5:56
alive? Yeah. Where's
5:58
the fire? More
6:01
than that? Birds of Fire? New
6:04
Orchestra? No, no, no, no effects
6:06
Birds of Fire Keith. Crap
6:10
Birds of Fire. So
6:15
Bill, do you honestly, do you think Metal KO is
6:17
the best live record of all time? Oh
6:21
I do. I fucking do. How did
6:23
you know that? He just said it. I just said
6:25
it because he was asking me. No, but it fucking
6:27
is. What's better
6:29
than that? That's the best thing in the whole world. How
6:31
many times did we listen to that in a row over
6:33
and over and over again? Why
6:36
do you think? When
6:38
you put the speakers out the window or put them on
6:40
the roof, you know, to just fuck with the neighbors. Why
6:44
do you think when Greg
6:46
Ginn said we're going to
6:48
cover Femme
6:50
Fatale by the Velvet
6:54
Underground, I'm
6:56
not singing that song. I'm
6:58
singing Louie Louie. Wait,
7:02
so it could have been Femme Fatale? It
7:04
would have never been Femme Fatale. I
7:08
was not going to sing that song.
7:10
I'm not Greg Ginn's puppet.
7:16
Chuck, are you Greg Ginn's puppet?
7:18
No. I most definitely am not.
7:21
Or was I ever? That
7:23
would change the history of music though, I
7:25
think, if Femme Fatale had been the set
7:28
closer tonight. Oh, it's a decent song.
7:30
It's a great song. It's not partying.
7:32
It's not Louie Louie. It's not partying
7:34
at all. No. It's
7:37
like an anti-party song. It's like, you
7:39
know, I'm fucked up and
7:41
bummed because, you know, my
7:46
thing with the girls isn't working right.
7:48
That's what. Yeah. So
7:50
what that one's all about. Do you remember the first
7:52
time you met all these guys?
7:55
Well, I met Billy at my dad's
7:57
store. Billy would come in. You
8:00
know, I've known Billy since he was eight years old. Just
8:04
like earlier when we were talking over
8:06
breakfast, I've known
8:08
Stephen McDonald since he was 11 years old.
8:12
The McDonald brothers came into the
8:14
Black Flag rehearsal space and
8:17
we told them, you can't
8:19
continue to call your band
8:21
the tourists because that's too
8:24
wimpy. There's nothing punk
8:26
rock about that. I thought the
8:28
tourists was a good name. Well,
8:31
that's the Arrhythmics, pretty Arrhythmics band.
8:33
Danny Lennox and Dave Stewart's band.
8:35
Then Chuck and
8:37
Greg suggested that
8:39
the McDonald brothers play
8:41
our equipment to
8:44
prove their punk rocketness
8:46
or their manliness or
8:49
how large their testicles were.
8:53
And Stephen, who
8:56
they're now like tall
8:58
enough to be professional basketball players.
9:00
I think that means that you have really
9:02
big dicks if you're tall. No,
9:07
it's your shoe size.
9:11
That's how they measure
9:13
a man's package
9:17
by his shoe size. I
9:21
like Greek kind. I like Greek yogurt. What about the
9:23
other kind of yogurt? I'm not a
9:25
big fan. But what, in the Greek they have
9:27
economic problems. You think you can get those economic
9:29
problems like... Are
9:31
economic problems contagious from the yogurt? I think
9:34
it's the second ackee, that flaming cheese. It
9:37
takes a lot of resources to light that cheese on fire every
9:39
time. That's what it is? Burning cheese?
9:41
Burning cheese. I grew up in the Greek
9:43
neighborhood in Toronto, so I have
9:45
a lot of experience with Greek food.
9:47
Burning cheese? Burning cheese, definitely. So
9:49
what about... So they'll come
9:51
to your dad's store and...
9:55
At a certain point, Billy, I
9:58
would be listening to the... radio
10:00
and I would
10:02
always because my dad would listen to
10:04
jazz and when whenever my dad wasn't
10:06
around knac
10:09
yeah knac loud rock blue
10:12
oyster colt zz top david bowie
10:21
and peter frampin and
10:23
uraya he deep purple you
10:26
know all of that kind of stuff
10:28
you know stuff that would bum our parents
10:31
out and billy would hear
10:33
something and go keith who's dad and
10:36
say billy that's an album that you
10:38

10:41

10:45

Ella Black. I
12:53
want to say Mary Radd and
12:57
myself just like
12:59
hanging out on a couch and
13:02
it looked like it could have been
13:04
in that front room at the church.
13:07
In the pool table room? Before
13:10
the pool table or after
13:13
the pool table. I think it's probably before.
13:15
Hey remember the night that we were all
13:18
like hanging out? What room? What
13:20
room? Wait what? The
13:23
south east room.
13:28
South east room. It
13:30
would have been facing the Altedina Dairy.
13:32
Oh yeah yeah okay. Yeah alright alright.
13:35
You know right there when you go
13:37
in the front door. You like where
13:39
Greg ended up living there after. He
13:42
lived across the way. No no
13:44
that was after after. I mean I
13:46
mean before that. I
13:49
mean he got sick and had food
13:51
poisoning in there. I didn't
13:53
even really live in there. I remember it
13:56

14:03

14:08
Randy or Mars went out with Joan Dave

14:13
Mars went out with Joe Nolte first
14:16
and then and then and then Joe
14:18
Nolte dumped her and then Dave Nolte
14:20
started going out last. Yeah What
14:23
other Joe? No way? I didn't know that's why
14:25
I was there's an actor actually but anyway
14:29
So it was either Janet or Michelle or Mars and
14:31
they were like this is Ron and Des It
14:34
wasn't it wasn't as it went and it
14:36
wasn't Ron It was Ron and Des like
14:39
Ron and Des were together. It was always
14:41
like Ron and Des What like
14:43
in like Linian squeaky, but not not Linian
14:45
squeaky, but it was always like for me
14:47
Ron and Des It was like you like
14:49
evident costello. No, I don't mean like that.
14:51
I mean like I mean Ron and Des
14:55

15:01
Lewis Come
15:03
on Ron and Des what about
15:06
red and Stimpy right?
15:11
Beavis and butthead Yeah,
15:16
actually we're kind of like that because
15:19
one guy you know, it's Jerry and
15:21
Obie That's
15:25
that's above everybody that's listening to yeah, I
15:27
was like that you guys lost me on
15:30
that one Jerry is
15:32
my dad And
15:35
OB OB
15:37
hey Billy, you know
15:39
OB's history He
15:42
was black ops. Yeah, he was black ops He
15:44
was one of the first guys sent into Vietnam
15:46
to scope it out and say this is what
15:48
we need to do This is where we need
15:51
to go. These are the people we need to
15:53
fuck with OB came back though when
15:55
he came. I mean he thought he was God. He
15:57
told me that he was God. Well, oh
16:00
Also, he
16:04
there were five of them that were sent in
16:07
five of these black ops. These
16:10
are the first guys to go.
16:12
The first guys to go into
16:14
Vietnam that represented the United States.
16:17
God. Yeah. And
16:20
the final order, their, their final order was
16:22
that they were, none of them were supposed
16:24
to come back from Vietnam. They were, they
16:26
were all supposed to kill each other. Wow.
16:30
And he came back and he was completely
16:32
out of his mind. He lived downtown LA
16:34
and he would wrap every night before he
16:36
went to bed, he would wrap himself from
16:39
head to toe in foil because
16:41
he thought that there were
16:44
like secret service agents
16:47
on all of the
16:49
rooftops around the
16:51
hotel where he lived shooting
16:53
him with these cancerous
16:56
rays or. The
16:59
guy was out of his mind and he was,
17:01
he could be a real sweetheart and then just
17:03
snap in a second. How'd you guys know this
17:05
guy about being out of your mind? And
17:08
that's a good question. Jerry let
17:10
him stay there. What was the arrangement? No,
17:14
he would, he
17:16
would ride the bus from downtown
17:19
LA fish on the
17:21
pier. Then he would
17:23
sit in the store all day. He
17:26
would keep us out of his mind. He
17:30
was living down to somebody up in
17:32
the rafters. That was
17:34
Raymond Ray,
17:36
not Ray, not like the pier.
17:38
Ray. Yeah. The
17:41
pier. Ray lived in the
17:44
upstairs. Yeah. You
17:46
mean the church? No. Yeah.
17:49
No. OB was never up there.
17:52
He was too big to get up there. Ray.
17:55
You know, without the guy with all missing
17:57
all of his kids. they
18:00
would eat steak like he would
18:02
just gum that steak down. What
18:11
you're doing is you're getting a history of my
18:13
dad's store. You're
18:15
getting the prehistory
18:17
of pre South Bay,
18:20
pre-punk, pre-that. So
18:22
were there fans? Were you guys into local bands?
18:24
Were there any local bands? The
18:27
last, yeah. Yeah, all
18:29
of the local bands besides the
18:31
last were all cover bands. They were
18:34
all top 40 bands. And
18:36
the reason why we gravitated
18:39
towards the Alley Cats who were in
18:41
La Mida, who we also
18:43
kind of considered to be a local
18:45
band. Oh yeah. And
18:47
the last was because they
18:49
were the only
18:52
bands with any
18:54
creativity. Like they were
18:56
the band that stood up and said, this
18:58
is what we do. And
19:03
if you don't like it, that's the way that it
19:05
is. So be it. Was Rhino 39 from Long Beach?
19:09
I somehow always harbored a
19:12
kinship with them because I don't know, I
19:14
just felt like they were one of us. They're
19:16
drummer or wouldn't become our drummer? Wouldn't
19:21
Long Beach be, couldn't
19:23
we consider? I
19:26
think that wasn't good enough. He wasn't way
19:29
enough. Yeah, I like his
19:31
plan. Everybody's
19:33
doing the Perlicks and stuff. Both
19:36
bump and tenon. No compromise,
19:38
no compromise. No compromise,
19:40
no compromise, no compromise. Yeah,
19:43
yeah. What about the
19:45
Quitch though? I know
19:47
39. And the officials grew him up to me
19:49
as their personality. Wonder what you want to be.
19:51
What is that? The
19:54
reason why we're here is because we're
19:56
here. We're here to help you. Then
20:00
we had a kinship with
20:02
Rhino 39 was
20:05
because we could consider
20:07
Long Beach to be
20:09
the most southern
20:11
tip of the South
20:13
Bay. Before
20:16
you go to the northern tip of
20:18
Orange County? Yeah, you
20:20
know, six of one, half a dozen of the
20:22
other. Apples or oranges? I think Orange County goes
20:24
all the way to Marina del Rey, but that's
20:27
a better outlook. Orange
20:29
County goes all the way to Marina del Rey.
20:34
So was there like a divide though between like,
20:36
you know, like Rhino 39 is definitely also more
20:38
of an aggressive band? Like more? Whoa,
20:41
whoa, whoa. No, no, Northern Black Flag. I
20:43
mean, but I mean, like, because they had
20:46
clean guitars. Yeah, they sounded like bad. Like
20:49
the minimum and the descendants. It's not like the
20:51
quick though, or not the nerves or like those.
20:53
That's different. The quick.
20:55
I bought my first drum set. It said the quick
20:57
on the bass drum. So I guess
20:59
it was, it was the quick. You bought
21:01
it from Danny Binaire? I don't know who
21:03
I bought it from. I bought it, you
21:06
know, the recycler. Remember the recycler? Danny Binaire
21:10
told one of the greatest
21:12
stories I'd ever heard about
21:16
how his older brother
21:19
who was like 18 years old, dragged
21:22
him to see the
21:25
Rolling Stones at
21:27
Altamont. He
21:30
was five years old. His
21:32
brother said, I can't find, I can't
21:34
find a babysitter. You're just coming along
21:37
with me. Get in the car. And
21:39
they drove up to Altamont and
21:42
somehow managed to get past all
21:44
the people. The two of them
21:46
walked in the back gate. Just
21:49
walked in and there they are, you know,
21:51
six of one, half a dozen of the
21:53
other apples and oranges. All the way
21:55
to Marina del Rey, but that's, that's a
21:57
better outlook. He
22:00
goes all the way to Marina though, right? Yeah. So
22:04
was there like a divide though between like, you
22:07
know, like Rhino 39, it's definitely also more of
22:09
an aggressive band. Like- Wait,
22:12
more? Whoa, whoa, whoa. Not Northern Black Flag, I mean,
22:14
but I mean like- No, no, no, no, because they
22:16
had clean guitars. Yeah. They sounded
22:18
like- Bad. Like the Minutemen and
22:20
the Descendants. It's not like the Quick though, or not the
22:22
Nerves, or like those- Oh, okay, that's different. The Quick, I
22:25
bought my first drum set. It said the Quick
22:27
on the bass drum. So I
22:29
guess it was the Quick- Whoa, you bought
22:31
it from Danny Binaire? I don't know who
22:33
I bought it from. I bought it from,
22:35
you know, the Recycler, remember the Recycler? Danny
22:37
Binaire told
22:41
one of the greatest stories
22:43
I'd ever heard about
22:46
how his older brother,
22:49
who was like 18 years old,
22:52
dragged him to see
22:54
the Rolling Stones at
22:57
Altamont. Whoa, he
23:00
was five years old. His
23:02
brother said, I can't find a babysitter.
23:06
You're just coming along with me.
23:08
Get in the car. And they
23:10
drove up to Altamont and somehow
23:12
managed to get past all the
23:14
people. The two of them walked
23:16
in the back gate, just walked
23:18
in. And there they are on
23:20
the side of the stage when
23:22
the Rolling Stones are playing. What
23:26
year? That's like 1969. That was the end of the- 1969
23:30
okay, all across the USA. That
23:32
signaled the end of the Summer
23:34
of Love. The
23:38
Rolling Stones said, sympathy
23:41
for the devil. Fuck
23:43
your peace and love. Well,
23:47
I guess, and Manson too, right?
23:49
That was the same
23:51
moment. So were
23:54

a religious goes up as a
33:54
conversation or you call it whatever
33:56
you wanna call it a conversation
33:58
was like us on sundays kind
34:00
of a history. I mean, you're
34:02
getting Keith's perspective. And then I'm
34:05
younger than them,
34:07
meaning Keith and Chuck here,
34:10
and Greg, and Robo,
34:12
especially Robo. But not
34:14
Isaac. You know, but
34:16
not Isaac. I mean, Isaac's in the
34:19
room. Isaac's the kid. I'm
34:21
even older. You're
34:23
getting a little bit of what's
34:29
not written in books. Yeah,
34:32
and that's the stuff that I think everyone that listens to the show,
34:34
and that's the stuff I care about. You know, like
34:36
I want to hear about the stuff that you can't
34:39
find out about as people need it. You know, and
34:41
I don't know if I would like to see a
34:43
book, but I know it right here. And
34:46
it was me and Ron, like Bill
34:49
said. We heard that we showed
34:51
up. We heard this
34:53
band Panic was practicing at a
34:55
church. But they're
34:57
maybe going to change it. Ron told
34:59
me this. Maybe going to
35:01
change their name to Black Flag. And
35:04
then we
35:06
had seen Robo
35:09
up on
35:11
aviation with
35:14
his core team up putting something. That's
35:17
the drummer. And that's what you guys
35:19
used to play up on aviation. Can
35:21
you do his trunk? Perhaps.
35:28
But the world's supposed to say
35:30
that. He's
35:34
not here to defend himself. We can
35:36
say whatever we want. And he lives
35:38
in Columbia anyway, so go ahead. And
35:45
don't blame the beer. Yeah,
35:48
but at the time he was living in El Segundo.
35:52
And you know how he got into the country.
35:55
Because he was a student. Yeah, he
35:57
was a... exchange
36:01
student. He was supposed to
36:03
be going to UCLA. Like
36:06
Harvard College or something?
36:11
El Camino. El
36:14
Segundo junior high. We went
36:18
to the University of punk rock instead. So
36:21
he graduated from that one.
36:23
Well well if
36:26
I can't even do his voice
36:28
I'm trying to do Marky Ramon.
36:31
Well well well don't make fun
36:33
of Robl because he's
36:35
a good guy and you
36:37
know do
36:42
I have to kick the little
36:44
guy's ass? This is the real... His
36:52
finest moments playing
36:55
drums as
36:57
a member of Dust, Marky
36:59
Ramon. Marky Bell. Marky
37:02
Bell who was also a
37:07
member of the voidaways.
37:11
Yeah but some of the people that are listening to
37:13
this might not know. We've
37:16
talked about Dust on the show before. Yeah we're trying to enlighten
37:18
a few people. Well
37:23
I guess also I wanted to find out what... Did you
37:25
guys see the screamers? Were you into the screamers? I
37:29
saw the screamers on several occasions
37:33
and Tomato was
37:35
actually my neighbor
37:39
when I lived over by the Hollywood Bowl and
37:44
we became really good friends. Really
37:48
a sweetheart. One of the coolest guys
37:50
that you would ever meet. And those
37:52
guys there would be no nine inch
37:55
nails. There would be no... You
37:57
should ask these two guys. What
38:00
they think of the screamers
38:02
billion we guys We
38:12
guys into the screamers Yeah,
38:15
yeah, there's always like a distinction that's made
38:17
in like the history books now about when
38:20
when the beach scene came and
38:23
ruined Quote-unquote ruin not me saying
38:25
this the LA punk scene and
38:27
was that real or is that like a minute?
38:29
See, that's right me like but like that's what
38:31
it that was a different County and it was
38:34
a different It's
38:38
like what Keith says every night about
38:40
white minority it was done
38:42
as a joke and Then
38:45
certain people took it Seriously,
38:48
and it's like certain
38:50
people Not
38:52
everybody But
38:55
a lot of people from Orange County did
39:02
And the valley in the valley
39:04
was neighborhoods where their
39:06
parents were conservative and they just
39:08
wanted to rebel in any way
39:10
and some of them really wanted
39:12
to fuck shit up and
39:16
I mean because I have
39:18
a story about my first
39:20
gig And
39:28
We had like Like
39:34
a mailing list of
39:36
about 500 people
39:38
about 300 of them were from Orange
39:40
County So
39:43
we planned this thing at the church First
39:47
of all, I had been in
39:49
the bat like four days You
39:51
know, I coming up. I I came
39:53
