Sober Smelly is a massive inspiration. Thanks for this Johnny.
I was just about to say the same bro
Smelly’s been sober since like the early 90’s, why would U even belittle him by talking about a time when he wasn’t. “Sober smelly”. You’re a fkn clown
This is how amazing smelly is;
In 1998, they had just made there website, and had a Q&A section. It might still be there. I was on way too many drugs and was going thru a lot, and I left a question about Smellys Sobriety.
He called my house to speak with me. For years after that, I was on pass lists, I saw them in Buffalo and Toronto every time they came around. Had stage passes. Been on there tour bus, hung out with mike, guys from good riddance, and plenty of others.
Smelly is an amazing human being
That's super fucking cool dude
Smelly is my favorite person ever. Great interview!
Best interview this year so far. Smelly = Legend.
Smelly is the absolute best! So down to earth such a cool guy! A fucking legend and super humble!
You can feel that he's been to hell and back, and that that made him incredibly strong and humble at the same time.
58:00 on is why i love smelly. He knows where he's at in life but still doesn't judge or sacrifice his friends cause their life styles.
NOFX is my "The Beatles. I have been saying that for years. It is true that you feel a connection to these guys from their music. when a band has been a part of your life for for over 25 years, it sticks with you.
Me too. I've been saying the same thing for 20+ years. I was given "I Heard They Suck Live" by a friend, because, why???? He told me "This band is a terrible excuse for a punk band". Meanwhile, he thought Sugar Ray's first album was the best punk rock record he ever heard. I was introduced to NOFX, because my friend thought "punk rock" was Sugar Ray's first album... Something about Lemonade.
I was friends with Erik way back in elementary school. His parents had homing pigeons.
Never been a huge A7X fan but this guy seems very nice and genuine! Think ill give a listen.
This is awesome, Johnny, keep it up. We need more!!
One of my favorite episodes ever.
Legendary interview, Smelly is just great
This was a great episode. Thanks Johnny!
Loved seeing smelly again! Massive fan of NOFX and thanks for the interview!
This touched my heart so deeply. I have so much respect for Smells xx
"We were never that good musicians" says the band who recorded the Death of John Smith and the Decline
The Death of John Smith is one of their best songs! I really don’t understand why it’s not more popular :/
@@bobsacamano1375 cuz it's on an EP and they weren't as popular yet
El Jefe also went to Berklee School Of Music and graduated with honors. Fat Mike and the band had to teach him how to play punk like he doesn't care hahah
Suicidal
NOFX
Eminem
(all these guys hate themselves!) Good Stuff!
Death of John Smith has always been my top track of theirs.
Awesome episode, Love Smelly!
respect - this interview is one of a kind - great times
Yup nofx is th punk rock Beatles to me too. Since I was 14. In '99. My favorite bands always been Nofx ever since I first heard em.
Smelly rules. This was a great listen.
Damn. What a great podcast. You guys just hit it off. I had to go out and buy their audiobook after this. This channel is gold.
Eric is one of my favorite drummers and one of my biggest influences. Pretty sure this one interview doubles or triples the amount of Eric Sandin interviews available on youtube. Thank you!
I very specifically remember the first time hearing Nofx, sitting by the side of my friends pool as she told me about them and sung shower days. She grabbed the tape, and green corn started playing... I was hooked immediately! Funnily enough I can’t remember the first time I heard the descendents, and they had a far bigger impact on me (and everyone else who has good taste)
This is so good! Thanx for that guys!
It’s crazy to hear about your golf games... This games really humbles anyone getting into it! Awesome interview!
Absolutely adore Smelly!!! Talk about a life story - holy shit - a true inspiration and wicked talented drummer ❤️
Amazing interview. Smelly's the best.
Smelly is one of the coolest people in music. Point.
Great show! Love Nofx! 👌💚
Hey Johnny love the show, really cool to see this side to you and get to know you more!
🙏
Best episode of Drinks with Johnny since the Fletcher episode 🤘😆🤘
Such a genuinely awesome guy!
I could listen to both of you chatting for days! Eric is such a good dude!
Went back to listen to Day to Daze, and I found the mistake. However it actually makes the song better because its a like a delayed double roll right before the lyrics come in, which is actually what I do to signal the vocals. Happy mistake my Dude, awesome
Where did he talk about that?
awesome interview, smelly is such a stand up dude. This made my day!
Johnny Christ is my new fav barista
Amazing episode. Even if it makes me feel a bit old, 'cause I do know what a cd slot is. And I do remember the first time I listened to a NOFX song, I didn't listen from a cd but from a music casette 😂
love the change from this funny stuff to pretty serious things back to fun.
🙏
Love you Johnny! Love Smelly! Great stuff. Keep this shit up!
I love smelly. Just a good human from what I can tell.
Read the book. He was an asshole. A complete piece of shit. But man has he turned his life around. He is a role model for anyone in recovery
Smelly reached out to me personally to help me get sober. I’ve met him numerous times, and he has always added me to the BS list.
Smelly is a saint and a great person
whoa how did i miss this?? nice!
Love Smelly and Johnny... Hi Guys!!1
Wow s&m airlines in a weekend?? Holy shit! That fckn album is amazing. Loved it since first time I heard it in 94.
Ohhhh Eric is so nice...nice Leo man 🦁👑...an episode well worth every single second...thanks a whole munch, Johnny my sweetz 👑💎👑😇🤘🎧 **edit** the Brooks Wackerman segment is always interesting 💯💯💯💯💯🔥🔥👍😁
Johnny interrupts smelly alot
Too much.
eeeeyeppp
I know it's fucking annoying!
And it's always "Oh, I did that too!"
Johnny that sign is lit dawg. Let’s gooo
My brother Erik. We go back to '83, and NOFX practiced in my garage back then, and it's crazy to hear someone say "legendary" lol!
My first album ever was S.L.A.T.F.A.T.S.. Also my favorite album ever
I fell in love with NOFX before before i even heard them 😂
What a great TH-cam channel 🤙🏼
Vaya un pamplinas el Johnny
Smelly but you are an amazing musician!! You are a top 5 drummer!! Easy, hands down.
Dookie was also the first or one the first albums that made me gravitate to punk. I was like 8/9 years old and my mom really liked the singles of that album. When I was like 12 i heard the full record and then I went to stuff like Blink 182 and eventually heard people saying "oh, thats not *real* punk, you have to listen this and that..." and by the time I was 14 I was hooked with the whole genre (from the classics, to the commercial, all of it). Even now, I find myself discovering music that has strong punk roots like IDLES and I love it. It's such an important genre in my life.
I remember the first time I heard The Decline... I was so blown away. Til' this day I find that it's ironic that punk being known for feeling, basic chords and short songs, I still think that that song is one of the best Punk songs ever written haha and it's so long and technical.
great vid
Here is the thing about NOFX, they might be bad one night, they might suck, but they have the best songs. Mike is a brilliant writer and lyricist, and that’s all that matters. A band lives and dies by there songs.
NOFX is my favorite band. The reason why they can still play is because of Smelly. He is on point every show. Fat Mike can get as fucked up as he wants and mess up and forget lyrics, but they still sound great because Smelly does not mess up.
8:35 That Sublime song is my birthday 🎂 😍 April 29, silly guy.
Haha, I totally relate to the older brother having nofx and stealing his cd, except for me it was Ribbed. And that is still my fav album to this day. Have bought it on vinyl and the condom cover looks great, with red vinyl, so good.
Ribbed is the best by far. So ahead of its time .
Mine was my sister and it was fat music for fat people, she didn't fucking deserve that cd
I would agree, Nofx is the Beatles of punk rock for sure .
The GOAT of punk rock drumz
"NOFX is the Beatles of punk rock."
Check out Wore Out the Soles of My Party Boots and compare to Black Bird. I noticed that a while back, it's incredible.
Holy shit. Did you just ruin NOFX for me? Or the Beatles? Or both? Or elevate them somehow? So confused... but nahhh. Course not. Thanks for pointing out! This is great!!!
Oh wow. I cherish both of the songs and I'm floored I never realized the similarities before.
If Smelly wasnt in NOFX, NOFX would never made it, I'm clad he got sober, but he never changed. Smelly you are my fav drummer. I remember hearing Punk in Dublic for the first time, I was at my local skate shop, it had a mini ramp at the back of the shop this is in Gold Coast Australia, called Phrunt Side I was 12 years old surfes paradise (its a strip club now) I went home picked up my bass and started playing punk rock it changed my life.
Smelly is one of my favorite drummers, and I have a newfound respect for Johnny also
If possible, can you interview more 80’s-90’s punk band members? Personally I’d love to hear from the singer of Limp, they weren’t huge but they had a great sound
Golfers sound like fisherman, “OH I SMACKED A 9 lb. BASS”
“OH I SMACKED A 300 yd DRIVE”
😂😂
He buzzing hard haha
🤷♀️
SMELLY IS THE MAN!!!!!
"none of us are trained musicians"
...except hefe...
True yeah he details taking several classes at city college both guitar and voice
@@aWhimTested I think it was definitely more then a few classes at a city college
Tbh
@@danevertt3210 Wikipedia says that he attended the Berklee College of Music and graduated with honors.
I fell asleep driving to Vegas at night, I was so lucky to wake up before anything happened. Only has to happen 1x for you to never do it again. I got mad respect for Smelly, great interview! My Dad doesn't say, "I love you" . I think it's a sign of the generation. Going through Vietnam messed up a lot of people.
Also, im a Stage Hand... shit blows that its all shut down. I hope one to day to work a NOFX show.
You're a miracle worker.. You guys make shit happen
Smelly has picked up the art of shaping and building surfboards. Picklestix. Fucking awesome human !!!!
Johnny definitely crushed a huge bowl before this interview
This guy didn't know about April 26 1992 from sublime? Wow
My first purchased cd well made my sis and mom get War on Errorism
I would 100% love to see Avenged Sevenfold play some fast skate punk stuff 🔥🔥🔥 Streets off of Sounding the Seventh Trumpet is a gem 💎
We need The Rev's father in Drinks With Johnny
Oh God Johnny liked my comment, i just got a mini heart attack 😂
Erik's one of my heros.downplaying that he wasnt that good...hes always been on fire.speedy punk drums.ive been playing 20 years n cant play like him
Best drummer in nofx
Have you read their book???
Great episode...good topics! Been fan of NOFX for 25 yrs n of course A7X since their beginning. I'm infantryman vet and it is frustrating to watch AmericA destroy itself from within, when we alrdy have Covid problem🤔🍻
I thought S&M airlines as your fav nofx album and you only had $ for 1 cd...?..? very suspect!
LOL love these BTW!
Love u smelly!! Holla Johnny!!
Smelly is the best man
Ribbed was my first. Ah to be 14 again in 1990.
56:16 Coaster/Frisbee came out of it.
At least suits and ladders is solid. I like Eddie Bruce and Paul but that's probably because I like Iron Maiden
You were sitting home watching your tv, while I was participating in some anarchy first place we headed was the liquor store I finally got all that alcohol I can't afford, with red lights flashing time to retire we turned that liquor store into a structure fire.
Next spot we hit was the music shop it only took one brick to make that window drop, finally we got our own P.A where do you think I got this guitar that your hearing today.
Sublime was such an amazing band.
Random lol
I'd read that the A7 guys had lent their guitar shredding to Linewleum and thought it was just a joke. I'm so glad I watched/listened to this. Crazy.
His drumming is the only thing that makes them kick ass. It’s also the reason the rest of the band can jump around and act crazy and still rock on time
Umm el hefe... hefe is the real reason they actually made it made it.. But yeah.. His drumming is super sick, not going to take anything away from that
@@CarsCatAliens yep, Hefe made them professionals
How about having a interview without interrupting the guest you interview? What a concept,
Love you Mike even if you think I'm stupid.
Is it me or all the videos on this channel have this person that always presses the dislike button? smh... i'm calling the police.
I loved when you said that NOFX is the Beatles of punk rock cause me and my dad absolutely love music, we are both bass players and have similar tastes in everything but he doesn’t like punk music very much and I grew up listening to blink-182, sum 41, nofx and stuff, and he’s more like a Beatles (he actually have this Beatles thematic pub in his house), Genesis and Phil Collins kind of guy. And he always judges me.. until this days I can see the “How did this happen?” look in his eyes 😂 I’ll quote you in our next conversation about it to see what he says 🤣 I mean.. he can refute me, but he can’t refute Johnny Christ
i may be a lil biased in my opinion but Bad Religion is a lot more beatles than NOFX
FreedumbFighter29 yeah that’s fair. Mike openly admitted to stealing their sound after hearing ‘Suffer’ ... then again, so did half those punk rock bands back in the day haha and tbh that’s all my favorite shit haha
S&M Airlines is the only CD I've bought in my life
thats awesome🤘
Cool cover art!
Crazy that they dont show smelly all the songs
I watched Shai Hulud cover linoleum in Sydney. Anyone connected in any way to punk rock considers it canon
Johnathan. Chrismas 🤣🤣🤣
Smelly is my hero. I love NOFX. Love. I want one of his surfboards even though I don’t surf. Ontario Canada just doesn’t have waves worth bothering with. The Decline sets Eric Sandin well apart. Putting up with Fat Mike and standing by him ... dude f*ckin rules.
Ontario does have surfable waves, Bruce/Grey counties.
12:28 Fuck Phonies
Fuck man it would be sick to take some lessons at Smellys boxing gym.
i got to say that it's very funny, for me, in a way, after so many years of listening to mike's side of the story and his positive stance and attitude about the band not practicing, to hear that smelly is, in fact, complaining about the fact the band does not practice, and to realize he finds it disconcerting X D although i do understand and empathize with smelly, I just have to laugh about it... the fact that the band that prides itself on not caring about practicing has, in fact, one member who does care, and he's not quite happy with this status of the band, is for, some reason, hilarious to me, however insensitive that may sound, but again, i do understand and empathize with smelly
I never heard the interviewer talking more about himself then the guy he’s interviewing man it’s smelly not DWJ
david Ramone 😂 sorry🤷♀️ what channel are we on?
Exactly.
I was gonna say, but he already iterated it; it is technically his show, but the delays and audio difficulties with video conferencing probably played a role in itself.
What band is Johnny in?
Avenged sevenfold
Cbd rules
My mate gave me 2 C-90 cassettes in 1992 and said check this American punk shit out, one tape was NOFX white trash and SNFU stick in the eye and the other was Bad Religion suffer and Descendants milo goes to college, I've loved it ever since, seen NOFX live 11 times so far, my fav band of all time, and skate punk in general is a big part of my life.
D-Hall says what up Eric
