Filmage The Story Of Descendents All Subtitles

At 00:00:20,459, Character said: Descendents are the
best story ever.

2
At 00:00:25,125, Character said: They come from a different time in punk.
They come from a different world.

3
At 00:00:34,334, Character said: You have this idea that started in
seventy-something, and to see it still going?

4
At 00:00:40,959, Character said: That’s totally cool!

5
At 00:00:44,918, Character said: A lot of what people listen to
obviously owes itself to the

6
At 00:00:48,209, Character said: fact that those guys made
records all those years ago.

7
At 00:00:51,250, Character said: I remember hearing the Descendents
for the first time and thinking,

8
At 00:00:54,501, Character said: Whoa, these guys
listen to the Beatles.

9
At 00:00:57,083, Character said: There was a sense of
melody and songwriting.

10
At 00:00:59,501, Character said: What instantly drew me into
the Descendents was how

11
At 00:01:02,071, Character said: much melody they had. How
catchy their songs were.

12
At 00:01:04,751, Character said: They were like the punk rock Beach
Boys. Their harmonies were great.

13
At 00:01:06,902, Character said: And this, like, shameless love
song aesthetic, you know?

14
At 00:01:11,555, Character said: None of the other bands
had the balls to do that.

15
At 00:01:14,334, Character said: Everyone was screaming
about Reagan or whatever.

16
At 00:01:20,959, Character said: I think the Descendents are possibly
one of the most underrated bands

17
At 00:01:24,624, Character said: that too often don’t get the credit
for essentially creating pop punk.

18
At 00:01:28,626, Character said: They’re a part of the
foundation, the fabric.

19
At 00:01:31,542, Character said: This sincere connection of pop
and angst at the same time

20
At 00:01:35,965, Character said: without it ever being this
thuggish tough-guy thing.

21
At 00:01:42,584, Character said: You have this singer who looks
like a f***g geek singing about

22
At 00:01:46,478, Character said: getting screwed over by a chick
with the gnarliest band behind him.

23
At 00:01:50,709, Character said: It was great.

24
At 00:01:56,167, Character said: And they worked
very few days off.

25
At 00:01:59,876, Character said: They’re always, always
pushing themselves.

26
At 00:02:03,000, Character said: Almost militant work ethic.

27
At 00:02:04,918, Character said: It would be insanely sweaty
in the room. It was gross.

28
At 00:02:08,209, Character said: They're the most
precise band I think.

29
At 00:02:10,042, Character said: They were real players,
and prided themselves

30
At 00:02:12,234, Character said: on playing their instruments
very, very well.

31
At 00:02:17,829, Character said: With a fury, man. It’s right
here in my heart to see these

32
At 00:02:21,886, Character said: guys again. This is Milo of the
Descendents and, I’m sorry

33
At 00:02:25,209, Character said: I’m Bill.

34
At 00:02:28,375, Character said: Bill is the brainchild
behind the Descendents.

35
At 00:02:30,959, Character said: It is trippy that they
were a drummer-run band.

36
At 00:02:36,792, Character said: Our whole goal was like,
“Yeah, it’s cool, there’s this

37
At 00:02:39,255, Character said: thing called ‘punk rock.’ Now
let’s take it somewhere.”

38
At 00:02:43,250, Character said: When I said, “I wanna go be a
nerd scientist geek,” then they

39
At 00:02:46,428, Character said: said, “Hey, see you later.” And
all of a sudden they formed ALL.

40
At 00:02:50,834, Character said: Since this band’s
inception in 1978…

41
At 00:02:55,626, Character said: You’re not gonna get one person…

42
At 00:02:57,709, Character said: You’ve probably never
heard of them…

43
At 00:02:59,292, Character said: ...on this planet…

44
At 00:03:00,667, Character said: “They’re formerly called the Descendents.
They’re now simply called ALL.”

45
At 00:03:04,250, Character said: ...to say they like ALL
better than the Descendents…

46
At 00:03:06,876, Character said: "Folks, give a nice
warm welcome to ALL!”

47
At 00:03:09,584, Character said: ...no f***g way.

48
At 00:03:11,751, Character said: People literally didn’t know who they
were. They’re like, “Who’s ALL?”

49
At 00:03:15,083, Character said: And I was like, “Well, it’s Descendents.
Same band, different singer.”

50
At 00:03:19,042, Character said: So there’s a different
singer, big deal, whatever.

51
At 00:03:20,792, Character said: There’s no other band like them.
Doesn’t matter which one they are.

52
At 00:03:26,083, Character said: The caliber of songwriting
and subject matter that is

53
At 00:03:30,125, Character said: so close and relatable to has
not wavered for 30 years.

54
At 00:03:34,501, Character said: I don’t think there were any other
bands that could do what they did.

55
At 00:03:37,375, Character said: It’s good to see that
those guys are getting

56
At 00:03:40,167, Character said: credit for what they, in
a lot of ways, created.

57
At 00:03:43,792, Character said: “But the show is far
from being over…”

58
At 00:03:51,042, Character said: It’s just their time for
people to understand

59
At 00:03:53,751, Character said: that the Descendents
had a big place.

60
At 00:03:56,167, Character said: Male VO: “Welcome the
Decendents!” [crowd cheers]

61
At 00:04:00,751, Character said: Milo: "It’s been a long
time for us, so… wow."

62
At 00:05:29,000, Character said: VO: [radio weather report]

63
At 00:05:46,542, Character said: Bill Stevenson: So going back
to before we had the bands.

64
At 00:05:50,334, Character said: Before Descendents, before
ALL, before Black Flag.

65
At 00:05:56,042, Character said: So, there was fishing.

66
At 00:05:59,959, Character said: Of all things to have brought
would-be future punkers together.

67
At 00:06:08,125, Character said: Keith Morris: My
history with Bill goes

68
At 00:06:10,709, Character said: all the way back to the Hermosa
Tackle Box, which was a business

69
At 00:06:14,959, Character said: that my father owned on Pier
Avenue down in Hermosa Beach.

70
At 00:06:19,709, Character said: My recollection is him working for
my dad when he was about 14 or 15

71
At 00:06:27,459, Character said: and asking me,

72
At 00:06:30,083, Character said: “Keith, what music should
I be listening to?”

73
At 00:06:34,501, Character said: Billy just struck me as that goofy
kid that maybe needed some guidance,

74
At 00:06:38,876, Character said: maybe he needed somebody to point
him in the right direction.

75
At 00:06:42,626, Character said: I guess I was giving
him a list of things

76
At 00:06:45,334, Character said: to do to lead to
freakdom or whatever.

77
At 00:06:48,501, Character said: Little did we know that Billy was going to grow
up to be the drummer of not only the Descendents

78
At 00:06:55,667, Character said: and ALL,

79
At 00:06:56,834, Character said: but Black Flag in between.

80
At 00:06:59,626, Character said: See, we grew up where all of the
music around us was Top 40.

81
At 00:07:05,667, Character said: The Dooby Brothers

82
At 00:07:06,751, Character said: or the worst of Fleetwood Mac.

83
At 00:07:09,292, Character said: Most of it was pretty
bland, pretty boring,

84
At 00:07:12,626, Character said: and there was no bright spot.

85
At 00:07:16,542, Character said: With the exception of The Last.

86
At 00:07:25,876, Character said: Joe Nolte: Basically,
I, like a lot

87
At 00:07:28,667, Character said: of others, was
really dissatisfied

88
At 00:07:31,584, Character said: by the state of rock music.
I was like 20,

89
At 00:07:34,292, Character said: had been brought up on
the Woodstock myth,

90
At 00:07:37,083, Character said: and I couldn’t wait to
get out there and

91
At 00:07:39,167, Character said: start going to all
the great shows

92
At 00:07:41,125, Character said: only to find that,
as the early ‘70s

93
At 00:07:44,250, Character said: developed, all the
really good people died.

94
At 00:07:49,542, Character said: So I discovered there
were these

95
At 00:07:52,042, Character said: bands with silly names
like the Ramones.

96
At 00:07:54,876, Character said: That was my big cue.

97
At 00:07:57,042, Character said: I threw a bunch of soundproofing
in the garage, and

98
At 00:07:59,876, Character said: at that time we came up with
the band name The Last.

99
At 00:08:15,542, Character said: Keith: Through the Nolte
brothers, we happened to

100
At 00:08:19,501, Character said: meet characters
like Frank Navetta.

101
At 00:08:21,792, Character said: Total kook, total freak.

102
At 00:08:24,751, Character said: Dave Nolte: Frank came to
my school, America Martyrs, in sixth grade,

103
At 00:08:27,667, Character said: and I was friends with
him straight away.

104
At 00:08:30,125, Character said: We both had interest in music. We both
started playing guitar at the same time.

105
At 00:08:33,876, Character said: Joe: They were
just typical kids.

106
At 00:08:35,459, Character said: The next thing I know they’re
deciding to start a band.

107
At 00:08:38,125, Character said: “Yeah, we’re gonna call
ourselves the Descendents.”

108
At 00:08:43,042, Character said: Dave: Frank came up with the
Descendents. He had the funny spelling.

109
At 00:08:46,876, Character said: Thought he was clever.

110
At 00:08:48,709, Character said: Joe: Mid ‘77, we’re hanging
out and this big kid

111
At 00:08:53,083, Character said: on this bicycle that’s three
or four sizes too small…

112
At 00:09:03,125, Character said: My brother David goes, “Oh my god.
I know that guy.”

113
At 00:09:05,834, Character said: Dave: I had met Bill before.
He was in my Spanish class,

114
At 00:09:07,834, Character said: so I already kinda
knew what he was like.

115
At 00:09:09,959, Character said: And I thought if he could
play any instrument

116
At 00:09:12,417, Character said: he’d be great to be in a band with,
because he had just the right attitude.

117
At 00:09:15,792, Character said: Bill: Really I think I was a
bother to Dave. I would come

118
At 00:09:18,125, Character said: over every day and be like,
“Hey, you wanna hang out?”

119
At 00:09:20,501, Character said: You know, the friend that
just keeps coming over?

120
At 00:09:22,876, Character said: And you're like, "Oh it's cool."

121
At 00:09:24,626, Character said: And then Joe really, I think,
thought I was bother.

122
