Oh really? You sure? If I order and it doesn't play will you send me a full refund?



dvds will play in any dvd player, no matter how old. do you not have an HD tv though? that is the only drawback of an old dvd player, as it will show stuff in Standard def on an HD tv and is essentially useless.


RIght, but this was back when I thought it was Bluray only.

Geez, sorry. Was trying to be helpful. Combo pack means 1 disc is a Blu Ray and 1 is a DVD. If the DVD disc doesn't play in your DVD player I will not give you a refund, sorry.

OFF! opening for DESCENDENTS? Doesn't get much better than that. Probably one of teh best shows I've ever seen from DESCENDENTS on Sunday night. Totally shredded! Tony Adolescent did "No Way" with them as an encore. Really special moment, but even more special was hanging with Milo and Tony and a few other friends for over an hour in front of Donut Man in Glendora afterwards. Great night all around.

I’ve ordered quite a few shirts from Kingsroad too :)

I think at this point I have over 20 dents/all designs, and 3 more to come w/ the Blu Ray


Just got done watching Filmage that I got from iTunes, too. Cannot wait to get the Blu Ray to see the bonus stuff.

I can't wait to see the bonus stuff, specifically the stuff with Tony. His story is so intriguing to me for some reason. I love the fact that he was basically my age when the band started.

It blew my mind earlier this year when I found out the dude is as old as my dad. I always figured he was probably a few years older than the rest of them, but it just shows how free and wide-open the early punk scene was in those days... like now, a dude well into his 30s playing in a band with a bunch of high-school kids would probably be thought of as some sort of creepy weirdo/loser.

Can't wait to see it. Chris, are you featured in any of the bonus footage? I'd love if they had some more info on how your work with them began, etc.

Shary has a cameo appearance in the bonus material. He talks about how Karl designed the ALL logo Allroy.

Did they use any footage from the cameras I installed in your bathroom? I gave 'em like 90 hours of material.

There was some drawing, but I don't recall it showing who was performing the drawing though it makes sense it would be you. You could probably tell by your hands sorta like Costanza the hand model. ;)

They need to release another blu ray with 10+ hours of concert footage from their entire career with full songs. The bonus material had 4-5 songs which were awesome.

He was also in Spiffy with Tony Lombardo. Great pop punk in the vein of Descendents, off course.

Ray is a very private person and declined to be interview many times for FILMAGE. Ray also happens to be a really great guy, and is living outside of Chicago. Hasn't played guitar in a while. He and his wife Laura did see DESCENDENTS at Riot Fest in Chicago in 2012 and had a ball.

Q: Why did Ray Cooper leave, and did he write anything?

A: ray just kinda got burned out on all the touring and having nowhere to live. completely understandable. he wrote a few portions of songs on Enjoy...

Here it is. Spiffy - Singles (1996.)
Two singles, 5 songs, same session recorded in Blasting room.
Sounds a lot like Everything Sucks, at least to me.
The songs are great, pop punk as it best.
Enjoy.
