      @@Ty-138 I have definitely seen them play Detroit live, and I'm pretty sure I have seen them open the show with it. What I can't remember is if it was in Detroit or in Chicago. I almost think it was at the House of Blues in Chicago. I can't remember. It's hell to get old!

    This song brings me back to a time I was “trying out” for a band in high school. Went to guitar center with a couple friends who wanted to see what I could do and this is the song I played. When I played the intro, they looked at each other and were shocked. They didn’t know rancid like I did. Matt, you’ve inspired so many bass players with your phenomenal bass lines!

Been playing 4 strings for a year now, has revitalized my love for music, and I'm actually way better than playing 6 strings. Thanks for the inspiration; you are one of the most underrated bassists ever. Peace, bro.

    マットはじめましてこんにちは。はじめてランシドのアルバムを聴いた時に、マットのベースに魅了されて特にこのデトロイトの曲が1番大好きだし衝撃を受けました。
    自分も当時ベースを弾いていて、何度となくこの曲を練習しましたが、指が動かなくて挫折しました。悔しくもあり最高の曲でした。自分の中ではマットは世界最高峰のベーシストだと思います。
    またランシドのアルバムの曲を弾いて貰えると嬉しいです。これからも応援しています。

    Watching these videos has been a reliable highlight of every week for me. I'm pretty sure I spent the summer of '96 in my basement with my first bass and unreliable tabs just brute forcing my way into learning as much of ...And Out Come the Wolves as possible. I'm pretty sure that learning to play along to that is the only reason I became okay enough to join a shitty teenage punk band. Now - nearly 30 years later - I'm in a shitty middle-aged punk band! Thanks, Matt!

Could never get that chorus line fast enough. Would love to see Axiom or White Knuckle Ride at some point- Oh and some upright playing would be fun to see at some point as well like Lady Liberty or stuff from Devil's Brigade.

    Matt, you are the reason I picked up bass decades ago. I’ve spent the last 30 years of my life teasing out your bass lines.
    You’ve contributed to the soundtrack of my life, from epic parties to hanging out with friends to the toughest times. Through my early teenage skate punk phase, street punk phase, skinhead phase, and now middle age, you’ve always been in rotation with Op Ivy and Rancid.
    You are a master craftsman and a maestro who deserves all the recognition and accolades. I tip my hat to you.
    I would love to see Freeze Up in a future Bass Bunker video.
    I can’t say see ya in the pit anymore because my old ass will be at the bar, but the sentiment remains.
