I don't know about you guys, but the solo records came out when I was jonesing hard for some new Social D, especially a tour. I still really enjoy the solo stuff.
Most of the rumors have been that the next album would be a solo one. So this is news. You may want to post that as a new topic to see if others have other info.

Cheating At Solitaire was Mike's finest hour. I don't think any of his other albums come close lyrically (well maybe WL), and the individuality of each song on the record is unmatched by any SxDx album.
<font size="2" face="verdana, arial">It's funny because, except for Johnny, this lineup IS the Mike Ness Band. Brent and Charlie both played on his solo tour. I can't remember his name but they should bring the guitar player from the solo tour on the road. Remember him? He had the tightest jeans I've ever seen on a man. That guy was pure cowboy. Anyways, bring him out and he and Johnny can swap out alternating Social D and Mike Ness band or Mike could open up for Social D with his solo band. LOLOriginally posted by ...My Car:
As far as I'm concerned with Dennis, Maurer and Chuck gone, this newer version of Social Distortion is The Mike Ness Band performing Social Distortion songs. Therefore, in my opinion, from here on out all new recordings ARE "solo" work.
As far as I'm concerned Mike Ness IS Social Distortion, no matter who else is in the band, yeah, I miss the previous members, but Social D will always be Social D as long as Mike is at the helm. (By the way just because I miss Dennis,John,and Chuck dosn't mean I don't like Jonny,Charlie,and Brent, they are great musicians and Jonny and Charlie are great guys, I have not met Brent, but I'm sure he's great too, maybe this tour.)
