Does anyone know who wrote the song....the words etc.? Whats the song about?
diamonds in the rough fits right in with the sex love and rock and roll album. its reminds me of footprints on my ceiling kinda song. it was just awesome!
I went to both Thursday and Friday nights show. First I want to know what the fuck is up with all those bonehead idiot white power fucks that show up to every social D show thinking that SxDx is their adopted homeboy band? One got up close next to me and wanted me to launch him up on stage.... I looked at him and shook my head and laughed then he proceeded to call me a "Nigga"..... I want to thank him for the street cred at least.
As far as the music is concerned I didn't care for the new song that much. I want to hear more balls to the walls music and to me a lot of their new songs are a blur. Just kinda mellow slower steady beat songs or songs without a real true hook line in them. They can play them all they want I dont give a shit but they aren't my thing.
those Vegas setlists are nice. when they came to DC, they didn't play Bad Luck or Footprints.

"Diamond in the Rough" sounded great. Very blusey song and a true sing-a-long type song.
Funniest thing on Friday to me was that when Mike introduced the band he went through everybody and then forgot to mention 2Bags (who didnt know what was going on, so he just made this weird look at Mike). Did anybody else notice that?
Friday night they also played 99 to Life. The crowd was way more hyped than any crowd at the recent Wiltern run, including a loud / long "Social D" chant when they left the stage the first time.
Great weekend. Friday night Social D, Saturday night UFC. It all kicked ass.

I was at the Friday night show. I really liked Diamond in the Rough. Sean I think you will be pleased with the minor tweakings in the set list from the fall tour. They opened up with Dear Lover, which was certainly a pleasant surprise. They sounded incredibly tight. The new bassist fit in well. The only song they played off SWBHH was 99 to Life. God, I would have loved to hear Born to Lose. That's my fav Social D song and I've yet to hear it played live.
did they play anything else from wlwhwt? someone said something about pleasure seeker...

Nah. Dear Lover was the only one from White Light that they played at the Friday show, not including Under My Thumb. It was actually a pretty short set. Maybe 13 or 14 songs
Feb. 3, 2005: Social Distortion, again, put on a fabulous show! One of the greatest live bands EVER. Its not that they are exactly entertaining with their on stage antics... we'll save that for Gwar...but, rather the members of Social D are just profoundly talented. I'm sorry, but I have never heard anyone sound so good live. Perhaps, I am biased. But, in anycase, fuck it... they rocked me like a hurricane last night.
It was fun to laugh at Mike Ness as he made the duck lips repeatedly, rather sad to see him get hit in the head with a shoe, amazing to hear him sing (and his fade out vocals are rather impressive) and completely kick ass to see him tear it up on his gatfiddle ... kapo second fret, never really playing power cords, never really playing outside of the G-D-C's, and! soloing like a mother fucking bad ass! A couple of times, the guy actually looked like my father... minus the tats and Chevy mechanic shirt. He seems to always wear those. Not only very Scooby Doo, but Chevy sucks! What can I say, I love my '67 'Stangs. Still, they still rein as the greatest band EVER!
The crowd was a bit mixed... noticably, only jock asshole where in the pit. I spotted hoochies that looked ready to go clubbing, dolls that were all Bettie Paged out, hardcore punkers who later delighted me by throwing fire crackers of the top of the parking garage, and guys that would look completely hot standing next to a coffin bass. But, all this mixed variety is very typical for Vegas, I have learned. Elitest Beware!
Anyhow, Mike Ness, proves to be a man who loves his encores, and damn well he should, for he more than deserves them! For the most part, new songs were played... a bit disappointed to here that the "oldskool" song they chose to play sounded exactly like a "newskool" song. Thank god we all have our 7" and know the greatness that Social D once was.. then again, to those obsessed like myself, they still are great even now. You know you have it bad when "Prison Bound" makes you all emo as Mike Ness tells the audience about his troubles before opening into song.
Ah, what else is there to say. It was just amazing. And what I wouldn't do for the op to molest Mike Ness!
