Fat Mike talks Me First & the Gimme Gimmes, going to the rodeo, wearing a lot of hats, and line dancing with Joey Cape #punk #podcast #fatmike #fatmikesfatmic #nofx #fatwreckchords
Please don’t stop doing this. I know it’s a little haphazardly done sometimes (sorry), but it’s entertaining and there’s those of us who care enough to watch every video.
Hey Mike, love the show. Any chance we could get a video someday about your thoughts or any memories of Tony Sly? I love the songs he wrote and just was curious if you had anything you could share about the past, touring, hanging out, or recording stories. Edit: Also the Tribute record turns 10 years old this month
I just think that the original MFGG lineup should come back, at least, for a while...and perhaps, who knows, produce a new album (or two...). Jus sayin'...
First of all what a treat, thank you Mike. I just repurchased "loves their country" and "mild in the streets" this past week so it's a nice coincidence to see this.
i was in a band that used to open for the gimmes and when they were onstage i would sneak in their green room and drink their beer...btw, they're the best!!! thanks mike!!!
I grew up in South Africa. We learned to line dance in primary (elementary) school for no damn reason. I'm 36 now; it's never come in handy yet, but then again neither has trigonometry.
First of all Mike, the album is called “Love Their County” not “Love Our Country” (come on man you created it) and second of all iPhones were around in 2006
Mike's transformation from shit-stirring drama queen into extremely sentimental elder statesman for the punk scene (and you know, still the other thing) is kinda heartwarming
I miss the old punk rock days. Skank pits and Mohawks! Shows at the elks lodge. Now I’m just a weird old tattooed guy. This makes me feel a bit normal.
for the record spike and i grew up in pittsburgh and he used to torture me for being straightedge and years later he would religiously apologize to me while we would smoke weed together on tour...i love ya spike!!! and you're forgiven...no big woop...
Guess that horse is not into gay cowboys on his back lol. Also, Mike u said your stranded island song is Rocky horror picture show. I tried it. Susan Sarandon looked hot and kinda still does. Def not my stranded island movie lol!
If Mike didn't say he wrote it ahead of time, I could've guessed it, as he is the only song writer in the world who would try to rhyme "black" with "methamphetamines"
My only question is if Cokie the Clown is leaving us as well, or will we at least be able to road trip to LA for some solo Cokie the Clown shows (since it seems any touring is out of the question for Mike?)
Waking up to find Fat Mike sleeping on my couch still wearing his sunglasses is a sight I will never forget. Oregon 1994ish..
By far the best Gimmes song that's not a cover for sure!
I see what you did there 😂
Please don’t stop doing this. I know it’s a little haphazardly done sometimes (sorry), but it’s entertaining and there’s those of us who care enough to watch every video.
I do, but none or less, it was funnier with Sam...
Please don't encourage this.
💙💙💙
Mike!! You will forever be the best 💙🤘
💯
Joey Cape can do anything and everything.

Mike has given the music world so much, it’s great to see him laughing and happy.
Love you sharing these little snippets of your career with us. Please keep 'em coming!
I always though I was such a nerd, but I refuse to eat that strange bean curd.
I just think that the original MFGG lineup should come back, at least, for a while...and perhaps, who knows, produce a new album (or two...). Jus sayin'...
I couldn’t agree more!!!
Great Band
no shit, I can't stand the dude who takes mikes place.... he can play n everything, but it's not Mike, plus he isn't funny as all.
The gimme gimmes rainbow connection cover will be on my playlist till I die. One of the most fun/rewarding songs to play on bass.
Where do you get an accurate tab?
@@ASM881 I never found one. Just trial and error over and over until I pieced it together.
I haven't seen someone that honestly happy in such a long time. It was infectious. Thank you for sharing this!
Country fans are never gonna let you live down that Vegas thing😆🐸🍺🔪🔥
Gotta be the best podcast intro song ever
Mike is starting to look like The Bumble from Rudolph! Its a pretty good look lol
First of all what a treat, thank you Mike. I just repurchased "loves their country" and "mild in the streets" this past week so it's a nice coincidence to see this.
GO TO ISREAL MIKE AND FIGHT

Can't wait to see them again they're awesome live.
The unbridled joy in mike's face while watching this is palpable, authentic and contagious!
This makes me so happy
I just wanna say that right now there’s hundreds of thousands of people all over the world!
Chris falling off that horse knocked some sense into him and he started playing country for real. 😂😂
Mike's transformation from shit-stirring drama queen into extremely sentimental elder statesman for the punk scene (and you know, still the other thing) is kinda heartwarming
Feed me
I saw Me First and the Gimme Gimmes play "I'm A Huge Fan Of Bad Religion" way before the 7" of the month club release.
What's the deal with dead to me and american steel too. Could you do an update on fat wreck
why do you think anybody is interested in that or a punkrock museum, you got lost in technology like everybody else, Mr. NO(!) Effects
Bro-cked back mounting!!! Poor stacked stallion 😂😅😂
dude this just dredged up the most ancient joy in my old, punk heart.. thanks mike!
yours' and joey's bands were me and my homies' heroes when we were navigating our evolving, wonder years
I miss the old punk rock days. Skank pits and Mohawks! Shows at the elks lodge. Now I’m just a weird old tattooed guy. This makes me feel a bit normal.
AND IF WE FALL WE WILL PRETEND WERE FIIIIIIINNNEEEE . Sooo good lol
This has to be the BEST Gimmes song that's not a cover! Bar none! I agree-Joey Cape is an underrated talent!
Thanks for sharing. P.S. My mom still loves you
No entiendo mucho el inglés, sería lindo subtitulado. Como siempre un genio Fat Mike, saludos desde Argentina
Baths were only 10¢ and I gurantee Fat Mike still didn't partake. Gotta keep the crust fresh.
this is so sick. never saw the video. reminds me of jeff rosso’s love letters to skateboarding.
"How do you learn to line dance in Santa Barbara?" It's called McClintock's Saloon
joey cape is an american hero!!! love you joey!!!
Hey Mike! Long time fan!!
Did you take the Cvid jab?
Poor horse
I'm glad this makes Mike happy though :)
Caper has albums with horses and guys named Hoss, which means horse in slag, Joey might be a secret cowboy
LOVE BLINK 182 ...JUST SAYING
Will the gimmes be doing more after NOFX is over?
fat mike is his own biggest fan
Mike is so happy in this, and I'm for it
im sitting on the can taking a dump with nothing better to do and I still feel like I wasted my time here!
P R O P A G A N D H I ! ! ! !
*No Gimmes we’re harmed in the making of this video
i wanna build a barbed wire fence, Smith n Wesson self defense 🎵
I want my tomb stone to say "Fat Mike wares alot of hats"!!!
reminds me of "Brodeo" and "The man I killed" hahaha
lol that fall was hilarious
haha “thats dave. Hes the guy..who wears his hat like that.”
The song isn't on any Gimme's album?
I wish Me First would ruin my wedding
for the record spike and i grew up in pittsburgh and he used to torture me for being straightedge and years later he would religiously apologize to me while we would smoke weed together on tour...i love ya spike!!! and you're forgiven...no big woop...
cool background noise
the tuning is way too audible on the intro
This is gold!! 😂😂😂
Ahh memories
Joey is my childhood hero
Sounds similar to Sixteen Lanes of Highway by Murray McLauchlan to me!
Bro thank u so much for sharing rhis lol, dope, definitely re-watching
Punk In The Park 2021 was your Death Knell of being a Gimmie
Good shit❤ love🎉🎉🎉
"Me First And The Nearly Quadriplegics"
THEME SONG IS BACK FUCK YEAH

Long live Mike Burkett, NOFX and the Gimmes.
TIL that Tony Sly is from Santa Barbara. Keep these stories alive Fat Mike.
That was fun to watch
Guess that horse is not into gay cowboys on his back lol. Also, Mike u said your stranded island song is Rocky horror picture show. I tried it. Susan Sarandon looked hot and kinda still does. Def not my stranded island movie lol!
The Boys with Hats looking really Good as the time was...could't agree more.!
😂😂😂

My only question is if Cokie the Clown is leaving us as well, or will we at least be able to road trip to LA for some solo Cokie the Clown shows (since it seems any touring is out of the question for Mike?)
Have a great day❤
Isn’t Cokie the Clown’s alter-ego is Chris Gaines???
Meh…
It least he’s not a Garth Brooks fan.
bareback!
These shows are fuckin pure gold. Cant wait to see you in Montreal one last time.
Love it!
Wasn't aware of the podcast until just now
Orlando was magical. Blowing bubbles and making fwiends.
I mean punk exists in the real south as well…you’re welcome for the percs
Seeing the look of pure happiness on your face was amazing
Awesome!! I sure miss the old punk days
Wheres Sam?
40 seconds in and I already laughed. #dejavu
Thank you Mr pharmacist mike

Who’s gotta smoke for the Caper?!
My favourite Gimme Gimmes album
Who else thinks Mike was high when he filmed this.

I may need to do a gimme gimme deep dive at work this week
Gimme gimme gimme more phatty
