Again for everyone out there who isn't smart enough to do some research on the topic, THIS IS FROM SUBLIME'S OFFICIAL MYSPACE PAGE:

So if the LBC was endorsed by Sublime wouldn't they be in their myspace "friends" list? These as*holes are blocked from Sublime's myspace for a REASON

Bud is not the rightful owner of the name! Bradley left it to his dad and wife. Q-ball was the original bassist however brief his tenure.

Ummm....any Sublime fan, even us fans from the East Coast know that Eric Wilson was the ONLY bass player of Sublime. The only member that was briefly replaced was Bud by Marshall during his rehab days. Just read "Crazy Fool" or watch any of the documentaries.

LBC is not endorsed, only Badfish is from what I hear.

i think everybody should leave SUBLIME alone and let Brad rest in peace man. No one will ever be close to replicating brad or sublime. Its been done get over it! just listen to the music and remember what was and keep the memories alive. If bands wanna play sublime songs as tribute then throw a few in your set but dont be a fuckin tribute band using the same name trying to pose as the actual band. Come on thats hella lame. Trying to get fame by posing as someone else? Busters! That goes for any band for every band out there that is no longer. Just let THEIR fuckin music play! People are so hungry for what belongs to someone else. Get your OWN style GET your OWN ideas. Thats talentless if you ask me. Im a musician i know these things. I love sublime but i dont jock. sure if someone request santeria or slow ride or whatever ill play it but i would never make cds and dres and try to pose as brad these dudes have no respect.
all i can say is this is bullshit
and if you people buy their cds or pay to see them youre being straight robbed of reality and you shouldnt listen to sublime cuz thats not what their about.
RIP BRAD
No ONE will ever compare

Just thought id keep the truth alive. My band was totally burned by QBall and LBC. Offered us a written guarantee- had us come out and play and then completley stiffed us for the money! Only to find out he was a fraud, doesnt really represent actual Sublime music...shame shame shame... not an advocate for viloence but i didnt cry when i heard Qball got his ass kicked later that night. Kharma is a bitch!

[intrigued]

when and where was this rocker chick?

[intrigued]

Q-ball told a friend of mine who is also the owner the owner of a club that Sublime Unauthorized/Remembered/LBC - whatever- played at that he (Q-ball) was the original bassist of Sublime. He also said he was with Bradley at the moment Bradley died. Don't know if the part about Bradley's death is true or not, but I do know that Q-ball is not the original bassist. I couldn't believe it when I heard it. That is how they get a foot in the door and book a gig and justify their large fee. Don't know why they cannot just play on their merits and talent. I have heard they are very good. I wouldn't pay a dime to see them though, knowing what Q-Ball is like and that he completely lied.

Bradley died by himself on a walk by the beach, Erik the base player was in the room pretending to be asleep cause he didnt wanna go on a walk.
but the lbc will put on a hell of a show it sounds like if you just put the cd in and listen to the real thing.

He died in the hotel room with Bud Gaugh and Louie. Get your facts straight. Watch the documentaries.

its seems real funny that everyone has an opinion about who knew bradley, who was friends with him or who the hell he hung round with. but then again, opinions are like assholes, everyone's got one. but the fact of the matter is that i've seen pictures of q-ball and bradley together, at fenders in long beach and the 5902 in h.b. playing music, writing songs on video. the funny thing about all of this, is most of you probably weren't even born yet to know what was real and what wasn't. your listening to stories from one person, bud gaugh, who was enemies with q-ball, so of course he's going to tell you what he wants you to believe. in reality, q-ball still talks to bradleys father, jim, quite frequently, was and will continue to be a friend of eric wilson.

I have suspicions that you are probably Q-ball or a close friend writing this lie. A lot of us did see Sublime and I don't remember seeing ANY pics of Q-ball with Bradley or him even mentioning him. What this Q-ball needs is psychological help. It's a shame the younger crowd believes what he says.

[i know the truth]

bud gaugh personally told me that q-ball (mike houlihan) had nothing to do with sublime, ever. he was a two-bit concert promoter in the 80's and booked 2 shows for sublime. i heard he didn't even pay them what he owed. which is also the same thing that led to him getting his ass handed to him in san diego a few weeks ago. weird.

[sUBLIMER1]

hELLO...
i HAVE KNOWN Mike Houlihan and his family for over 20 years, he is not a fake. I have met some of his friends and some awesum people through him.(Q-ball) Tone-Loc Pupa don etc..Vanilla Ice. He love's his band and only trys to show sublime fans a good time! Getting rich --BULLSHIT-- he spends al his money on attorney fees fighting you ass holes!!
Oh and the Rocker chick who hit him Bring it on Bitch, cause your a dumb ass who he did not want back stage who was throwing shit on stage! Love you Q-Ball!!

He's (Qball) a piece of garbage. Read Bud Gaugh's blog on the www.wearesublime.com

Better yet, read this site and all the lies mentioned.
I got a great laugh out of it.

It will clear up the lies that Sublime LBC, Remembered or whatever they're called. With the real Eric Wilson and Bud Gaugh reforming, that ought to shut down all of the Sublime cover bands especially this one. God, Qball doesn't even play the bass lines right. How pathetic.
