Fat Mike is pretty funny. I like him and i love NOFX. He help so many bands with Fat Wreck Chords. People have an easy judgement about him but he's a nice person!
Me and my homie were riding around smoking some blunts in Fort Worth right before Punk in Drublic fest. On our way to store to pick up some brews we saw Fat Mike riding around in his bike with his mohawk up and in a dress. My homie just released their first studio album. He claws at my door and chases down fat mike on foot to hand him a copy of his album. I think the best part about that day was my homie had an expired ID. He had a plus one to get me in. So we're pretty much fucked at that point trying to get into the fest. We go down to office depot. I'm waiting in the car for 20 mins. I walk in and I hear the chick from behind the counter say please don't tell my boss I let you do this. Homeboy has photoshopped his ID, scanned the old, modiefied it, printed it once, forged a fake signature, scanned it and printed it again. And the same exact security we saw bought into it xD
That Flippin Guy you do seem like the kind of toolbag to stupidly bring up Urban Outfitters or Hot Topic lol never been to either of those awful places. Glad I could take you back a couple years ass clown
Saw NOFX this summer in a french festival. It was great and I laughed a lot. Fat Mike is a true punk, dirty annoying and provocative. But he's definitely not an idiot.
I used to be a massive hardcore punk fan, now it's been like 15 years that I "gave it up" and started listening to completely different music. The only punk band I still love is nofx (well OF COURSE the mighty bad brains too). when it comes to nofx i just can't help but keeping up with what they are doing, listening to their new songs, looking for interviews. and fat mike... i just love the guy!

Helped so many bands and encouraged bands to cross the line between independent | mainstream if that's what they really wanted. For example, blink-182. This man is such a joy, a national treasure.
I can tell that I could only hang around this dude for a few hours at a time before I couldn't stand him anymore. Lol... I know several people like that and I always think it will be different this time around.
rome8180 I’ll admit that “Real artist” is a pretty subjective term to begin with but a dude that plays in a whiny pop punk band barely has artistic merit lol .
Robert Craig I believe you . And don’t get me wrong there’s a time and a place for some whiny/fun pop punk . But if you want to throw around the term “real artist” you can go a lot deeper than NOFX . Maybe you don’t want to dig deeper and that’s cool too but circling back to the original comment, there are far better artists with far better personalities than this dude lol
@@nicholasmontoto9346 to each their own. But I think that between '91 and '99, they put out some of the best punk records ever made. Super clever lyrics, complex music with unique chord progressions, etc. I really don't think the characterization as "whiny pop punk" is fair. Besides maybe Bad Religion, they're the most melodic and intelligent punk band. They also spawned a whole style through their record label. So yeah, I think he's an artist. Unfortunately, he's lost a lot of his inspiration in recent years.
I like how in those comics, Rollins is consistently drawn to be larger, more muscular and more brutish looking than Glenn even though Rollins was only jacked for a short period of time. That cover had me in tears.
"I have a dungeon... and the next time I have someone tied up there, I'm playing this for them." Why does this seem perfectly acceptable, from Fat Mike?
thnx amoeba for your series. i enjoy seeing/hearing other folks point of view. i take in what resonates with me and let go of rest. i clicked on your vid cause i was curious to find out what is in their bag. i'm not going to crap on them just because i don't agree with them...but i appreciate being able to have the option to click on ur vid and be exposed to a variety of personalities....so thnx.

Yeah fairly hypocritical - I'm fine with the joke, just dont feign empathy for victims then. Cant have it both ways. (Unless you're in his dungeon!). But even the bands who were on stage for those slaughters handled it differently: Ironically, the Eagles front man is like a SUPER pro-gun jackass, (I dont even feel that thats subjective after the shit he publicly says), with a "the only way to stop gun violence is with everyone having guns" mentality; [www.theguardian.com/world/2016/feb/16/eagles-of-death-metal-frontman]; - but yeah he came down hard the past few years after the shooting, even slamming peaceful anti-violence protests.: [www.theguardian.com/music/2018/mar/26/eagles-of-death-metal-jesse-hughes-march-for-our-lives-bataclan]; kind of odd for a punk. -- then in the USA we have the Las Vegas shooting - where there were plenty of guns - literally armed cops at the event, even the band had rifles and guns in their bus. But still couldn't do anything. Ironically Caleb Keeter the guitarist on stage who had a gun in the bus and always defended guns, literally believing "having guns was a necessity" - that night said he was changing his tune and giving up his guns, the only way to stop that shooting wasn't other guns, it was no guns; kind of odd for a country guy. [www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/oct/02/las-vegas-gun-control-caleb-keeter-josh-abbott-band] So the concert shootings made one guy want more guns, the other to get rid of guns. Just shows how different we all are I guess. How we handle stress or make ourselves feel safe.

They didn’t get banned from playing in the US, dude. 😆The government can’t ban artists. But businesses can choose to not work with you. That’s businesses using their own freedom.
I know he's a punk rocker. I've known about NOFX since the early '90s. In my opinion, people like Keith Morris and Greg Ginn are far more important than Fat Mike. They were the ones that really helped build the Califonina punk scene.
He's proof that I could be the complete opposite of somebody in a lot of ways and absolutely love them as a soul, Just a f****** real one. Fat Mike is awesome, I laughed so hard at the Henry part

Amazing that people say in the USA you have freedom of speech, except when you say something wrong and get banned from playing music in a country.
They didn’t get banned from playing in the US, dude. 😆The government can’t ban artists. But businesses can choose to not work with you. That’s businesses using their own freedom.

Nofx is the nickelback of the punk rock
I suppose that makes Green Day the Creed of punk rock
@@futurebuilding Green Day is the Evanescence of punk rock.
Their early 7"s are pretty good.
At least NOFX are genuine punks, unlike Green Day or Blink 182 or Sum 41 or any of those other shitty corporate "punk" bands.
HuskerDude not really they are corporate punks too
It's about damn time
He looks like a 50 year old that cannot come to grips with the fact that he is no longer 20.
Punk rock baby
he's a punk dude
@@matthewp9217 damn right
@@matthewp9217 one of the most important punks of all time
I know he's a punk rocker. I've known about NOFX since the early '90s. In my opinion, people like Keith Morris and Greg Ginn are far more important than Fat Mike. They were the ones that really helped build the Califonina punk scene.
Battalion of Saints. Best punk band ever.
What is the name of the song they play at the beginning of this video?
Nofx is a big part of my life- however Mike: I met you in Pismo at a gas station once- i like you- i hope you get to a gym and get out of the dungeon
Why is everybody hating on him?
@@pjslon2218 wait... i see what you did there... :) using your superiority complex to out superiority complexes... genius!
His whole shtick is to be unlikeable so its no real wonder.
Because he is right
The Punk dads documentary shows how selfish& cliche his parenting strategy is& he should start saving for her therapy now.
@@briansalazar7397 Yeah the poor Girl is living her Dream. Where the fuck did i land here? The Punk scene now starts even judging about parenting?
Glad that ended on a light note...
He feels like a mythological character.
"this was back when HR wasn't crazy" fuck, finally SOMEONE said it
not crazy,just a massive homophope and a sexist . he got hat pma
He's proof that I could be the complete opposite of somebody in a lot of ways and absolutely love them as a soul, Just a f****** real one. Fat Mike is awesome, I laughed so hard at the Henry part
I feel that way about Ron Swanson. F Mike is great though. One of my favs in the punk scene.
I thought jack black became a pirate. Lol I grew up loving nofx and still have a place in my heart.
Fat Mike just said what he wanted a lot of times and the people hate it, and that's why I love this guy,
People just can't let people be who they want to be. Gotta ride the train to mainstream town!
