Yeah
Is this thing on?
Yo, first off, we made this record in San Pedro, California
At Harbor Martyr Studios, that’s it
Shouts to Jon genius and the Joseph family
Speakin’ of which, a big thanks to the families of
Nowell, Wilson, Gaugh, Pangborn, and Boyce
Yes, Mr. Escalante, you’re the uncle we never had
Mama Troy, we love you, thanks for pushin’ out our little weirdo
And thanks to everyone on our crew
D-Rock, Carlos, Dennis, Gabe, Aisha, Max, Mikey P., Freshie Fresh
Tony, Kenzie, Lance, Mark, Zach, Danimal
You’re a bunch of legends, and the last few years
Would not have been possible without y’all
And to the families at Redondo Beach
Sorry about that chick who pulled her tits out on stage
Or you’re welcome, either way, it wasn’t our idea
To all our featured friends, Zach, Fletcher, G-Love, H.R., and Benny
Thank you for your contributions, down to do another?
And also thanks to everyone who jammed with us while makin’ this record
Mr. Tim Wu, Wes Dogg on the bone, and of course, Bud’s high school drum teacher
And a big thanks to everyone who’s been part of Sublime
Whether V2, V3, and now V4
That means Opie and the Dubbies crew, Marshall Goodman, Kelly Vargas, Roz One
Shortbust, Dubcat, Peril Bravo, and Ziggens
Rest in peace, Burton John
Shit, even you, big man
And everyone who’s been a part of this sound
From now until the sun blows up, you are family
Furthermore, we’d like to acknowledge the contributions of
Wild Cherry, Jared Orr, Christopher H. Lundy, Val Wolfe
Scott Adair, Jordy George, Margs, Nate “Doggy Dogg” Cimino
Every friend, fan, or kick-ass band that’s been a part of this SVN-BVRNT stylee street parade
If you’re hearin’ this, it marks the beginning of a new epoch of Southern California sound
And to the Eighth Ball boys, tell that little drummer kid
If he ever pulls a knife at a show again
Our merch guy, Lano, has been takin’ jiu-jitsu lessons
You might even get broken off worse than Jake’s leg at Bayfest last year
But as we all know, none of this would be possible
Without the hard work and war strats by the legend
Mr. Spady Smurf himself, Kevin Zingaro
The legacy of SRH and Skunk Records are in the blood of this band
And speakin’ of Skunk, big love to Uncle Michael “Miguel” Happoldt
For being such a big part of this since the beginning
Jake wanted me to say thanks for being there for him
That time he took too much acid back in high school
And thank you for being there for the family when we lost the captain, Big Jim Nowell
Without the guidance of elders like Jim, our future means nothing
And finally, crucially, and most importantly, with the highest honor and respect
Do we take a moment of silence for Bradley Nowell
This band has become bigger than any of us
But it will never be bigger than you
Thanks again
(This is Bradley, comin’ from Long Beach now)
