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.

-Someone on the LBDAS chat called Eric Wright wrote this phat poem of Bradley Nowell, check it out:

4 Years Late

Although I never met you,
or saw you from afar;
you were my inspiration
and you gave me my guitar.
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...

-In other news, the next LBDAS album rumored to come 
out Spring 2001 is rumored to be called "Cereal Syrup".

Well that's it for news. Peace...

5/6/00:Long Beach Dub Allstars are working with G-Love 
on a track that will be on the next LBDAS cd and the
track is called "Unified".

That's a tidbit of news some one sent me, I ain't got more news 
for today. If you can send me any info, news, anything 
at all, please mail me at (a href="mailto:christorres76@hotmail.com">christophertorres76@hotmail.com.

5/5/00:-Long Beach Dub Allstars might soon tour the 
Pacific. Their mgmt. is working on putting together
a Pacific Rim. I'll have more on this when I get 
more info.

-"Take Warning" and "Have A Little Faith" are up on 
this site for download but they will probably not be
on the new album because their both covers from other
artists. "Take Warning" is a cover of Operation Ivy 
and "Have A Little Faith" is a cover of Tippa Irie
I believe. The new album will probaby have brand new 
songs and stuff written from the Long Beach Dub 
Allstars. Song rumored to be on the new LBDAS album
are "Soul Dub" and "Rules of Life". 

That's all the news I got. Peace...

4/29/00:Basicly just tumors in this news update

-Long Beach Dub Allstars next album is rumored to be 
released Spring 2001 and two songs rumored to be on
the next album are "Take Warning" and "Have a Little Faith".
I'll try to have these songs uploaded in mp3 form
in my next update or they could be already uploaded.
Whatever happens they'll both be in this site soon.
Peace...  

-Just one bit of news, "Saw Red" f/Barrington Levy
is off the 20 most played songs list at the 
KROQ radio station but it's probably still being played. 
I'll try to get LBDAS radio updates from other
radio stations soon. Peace...

4/24/00:

- The Long Beach Dub Allstars already made a music video 
for their new single "Saw Red" f/Barrington Levy off their album
"Right Back". The single "Saw Red" is doing quite well in the 
KROQ radio station in California being the 13th most played song
last week in the station and the 15th most played song this
week in the station. This is what Opie had to say about Music Videos
in a recent chat from skunk.com:

"PERSONALLY I THINK VIDEOS ARE COOL IF THEY ARE DONE RIGHT. 
I DIDNT LIKE THE TRAILER RAS FINAL PRODUCT, I THINK IT COULD HAVE 
BEEN DONE A LITTLE BIT LESS GLAMOROUS. THE ONLY EDIT THAT SHOULD 
HAVE BEEN PLAYED WAS THE X-RATED VERSION. LAST WEEK WE SHOT 'SAW RED' 
WITH BARRINGTON AND THE DAY BEFORE YESTERDAY I SAW A ROUGH CUT OF IT .. 
IT NEEDS A LITTLE WORK,BUT ITS DEFINETLY SHOWS THE BAND IN A DIFFERENT LIGHT."

- The Long Beach Dub Allstars will be performing on 
the Vans Warped Tour '00 along with many bands 
including NOFX, Green Day, Mighty Mighty Bosstones,
Less Than Jake, Suicide Machines, Slightly Stoopid and many more.
For any info, tour dates, news, and such 
on the Warped Tour '00 go to www.warpedtour.com

-On MTV late night Wednesday 4/19 aired Loveline with 
guests Bud and Ras-1 from LBDAS. The show kicked so 
much ass with Bud and Ras-1 giving advice hell they 
should fire Adam and Dr. Drew and hire LBDAS to do 
the show!!!
