A Tribute To
LBDAS News 5/31/00:Just reminding everyone that today at 7 P.M. Pacific Time, 10 P.M. Eastern Time is the LBDAS chat at synge.com so check out the site for the site. Sublime and LBDAS got mentioned this weekend in an MTV countdown called TRL Superstars and what was said about them was that many great bands come from So Cal which is where MTV is gonna be this summer. They mentioned Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Blink 182, No Doubt, and they mentioned Sublime and Long Beach Dub Allstars. The reairing of the MTV Loveline with Bud and Ras-1 of LBDAS was last night. I taped in and I will tell you everything that happened in the show when I can. 5/30/00:LBDAS' official site www.longbeachduballstars.net has been redesign and it looks awesome. You have to check it out. The only thing that sucks about it is the message board. The Loveline episode with LBDAS airs tonight on MTV late night. I'm surely gonna tape it and try to type a transcript of it and put it up on this site soon. *From very reliable sources it is been said that to expect LBDAS to play a 45 minute set at The Vans Warped Tour. Though no word on if any guest Dub Star will be along on tour. *Eric Wilson, bass player of LBDAS, broke his wrist. There is no information how this occured. Replacement for tour is in the works. This is a rumor. Information with a "*" I got from https://www.angelfire.com/band/lbdas/ so do check that site out, its relatively new and looks key. The only thing I am mad about that site is that he got the LBDAS lyrics from me and did not mention it but ohh well he'll maybe mention it soon enough. 5/27/00:-Yesterday was the LBDAS chat at artistdirect.com. If you want to see the transcript click here. -Sublime did not make it to the May 25th TRL. F*ck TRL it's probably fixed. Sublime should've made it to TRL. And that day there was no mentioning of Sublime or anything so f*ck MTV. 5/25/00:-Today is the 4th anniversary of the death of a great man, a legend. I just want to salute Bradley Nowell and send my blessings to the family. -Reminder...Tomorrow is the LBDAS chat at artistdirect.com. Go to the banner on the main page for more information. -The official LBDAS site www.longbeachduballstars.net is going to be redesigned soon so expect it to have a new look soon. -A new Sublime bootleg was released, The Black Album 2.

And if it wasn't for you, I'd be driving in my car; no care of where I'd be going or who the hell I'd be, and listening to some shit like they play on MTV Then years ago I heard it, oh what could it be? They called the band Subime my friend, 40 oz.'s set me free. And even as I sit here, the words still ring true to me, "You're not the only one but you're the best Bradley." '96 was not the end even though you went away. For the music that you left behind, will forever stay. An simply knowing that your message eternally lives on, helps ease the pain and suffering in knowing you're really gone. 5/24/00:There are talks on the internet on putting Sublime's video for "Santeria" on MTV's TRL on May 25th. May 25th was the passing of Bradley Nowell, Sublime's legendary vocalist, guitar player, legend, and so much more that it couldn't fit on this site. Now we should vote for "Santeria" many times and hope it reaches #1. Start voting after today's TRL starts so your votes will count for tommorrow's TRL. Why we are voting for this is to finnaly get some good music on TV, to show that there still is a huge appreciation for Bradley Nowell, and cuz "Santeria" is the shit. So to start voting go to trl.mtv.com. Peace... 5/19/00:The LBDAS chat on synge.com May 20th has changed to May 31st at 7 P.M. Pacific Time, 10 P.M. Eastern Time.
