George Christie jumps on with @SoseTheGhost to talk about it. His full interview is here👉czcams.com/video/rFe3SpYpfvI/video.html&ab_channel=DemonsRow
hey sose, I must have deleted my emails with my order info, but i ordered a mask on the 26th of june, can i get an update on that please and thank you!!
You two, really vibe together .
Can you start asking a question, it's a tough 1. If the P is an informant, then who was calling the shots. Why do so many Cali P's end up on public shows. You'll never see A O.A. do this. The Bikeriders is the closest you will get. #1 is protecting the culture, it's not the same culture as Cali. This is a culture we grew up in, love, and don't wanna see changed. Not speaking for A O.A just myself. Make that very clear. Sylo but I speak for me. Is 81 a Gov Black Op?
I worked with Norman for 3 seasons on Walking Dead he would never on purpose disrespect someone. He was a good soul very kind to the fans coworkers and more.
Yea i def felt like he was just trying to play the best role
That's why everyone loves him
There are clips online from an interview Norman did and his explanation for the teeth is that he didn't want to look like Daryl Dixon in the movie, so the teeth were a way to drastically change his look.
I watched an interview and I believe Norman said he didn't want to be "Darryl" and asked for the teeth so the audience doesn't just see Norman Reedus as Darryl again
Oh really 😂😂😂
I could listen to George Christie all day. God bless Sose & George.
God bless
Same here bro
Yea I enjoy hearing him tell these stories as well!
I think Reedus said that the teeth were an artistic liberty taken and I think he also said that its supposed to be a sort of endearing joke for motorcyclists of the time, something about them being seen as grimy and filthy by the general public. Either way, irl funny sonny sounds like a cool dude and I loved how Reedus Played the character in the film.
I have never been in an outlaw club. I am a full patched member of a CofC recognized group and what I really liked about this movie was how it showed how an original club started to become something very different as the club grew and expanded from it originals. That seemed to me to be spot on and a very interesting part of the story.
Sose, you’re really shining lately bro. Cool content, thanks for giving us a more in depth look into the world most of us would never make it in.
I appreciate that!
Well said.
😂😂😂😂
I would love to hear an interview with an old skool Outlaws MC member from the same era as George.
Yes im trying to sit down with all the legends
Agreed. Listening to the old school warriors is just awesome! Thank you Sose for doing these interviews!
Keep up the amazing work bro!! God bless and have an great 4th!!

Paying attention and letting the Mr. Christie talk. Right on and I appreciate both of you thank you.
appreciate you
This is the content we want. You're killing it.
thank you
I just saw Bikeriders, but just saw it today with my great friend! I loved it told my story as an ol’lady in that time period in Fairbanks, Alaska & my friend was the East Coast!! It was a beautiful time in my life livin’ the life sitting on the backseat with my ol’man. ❤❤ I thk he did great job of making those days seem real. It wasn’t supposed to be another SOA movie. I loved the way he did the the sets from the TV (even down to the show “Bewitched “ the clocks , the clothes the music 🎶 my friend & I were shaking own ft & singing the songs etc ❤❤😂. I was on the streets since I was 12 yrs old & been on the outside of several Clubs from that Club to Tx Club to AZ after I moved there after Sonny stripped patches from a family member who rode with that Club that went to jail instead of joining Club. He has since died but I learned a lot. 😂. I loved the days of hanging out with friends, getting food ready for the Club I to was it by the 16:36 sound of roaring engines in my ear my arms around my Ol man & the wind in my hair. The sound of the bikes rolling by my street now brings both envy & great times gone by. I’m now almost 72 & alone but this movie today left me feeling Great !! I rarely go to bike events now that I don’t do tattoo contests at my age & even those contests have changed everyone has tattoos and not the old school ones that I had done many yrs ago. lol. Women didn’t get as many tattoos has I have. It’s fun to run into bikers who remember me from those days just saying’. 🌹❤️‼️Times they have changed & even will continue to that’s just how it is😂😢. So I’ll quit rambling on about the “old day’s but I think it was an awesome movie the dialogue was stray from the book. I give it a 💯❤. & so did my good friend & he borrowed my book to read I was writing this while George was on. Sounded like he enjoyed it also Always thks for a great interview with him again🎉❤. ‼️
Thank you and thank you for sharing
I'm 70 I sure get it those were the days stirs emotions. I still ride but mostly alone these days to old for club life.
I loved your comment. I love hearing from the older guys about how things were back then. I've inked some great men that aren't with us anymore and heard some batshit stories in the process. They got to experience a kind of freedom that we'll never see again. I wish you the absolute best.
@@dirkz.duggitz1567 Glad u enjoy the old stories. Those Ol’ guy’s to have the greatest I really enjoy George Cristie. He is the real deal !! Sonny was President in AZ tell he passed.

My ex (RIP) was in one of the other club’s he had to patch over , lv state or severe consequences. He chose to not patch or or lv.

@@dirkz.duggitz1567 sorry I repeated my story that I also shared before my bad. I’m sleeved, have full Bach, rt leg , a couple of left leg the Handel dyanpaintedlady for doing many tattoo contests, few magazines & Facebook, Biker or Not My tattoos were done about 30 + yrs ago so really different from today but great work!! I have no regrets but took lots of 💩 about being a woman with so many tatts. To funny 😆 now. I also wish u well take care & keep riding,rubber side down ‼️
I believe Norman Reedus said he wanted to look a little different because of everyone looking too pretty so I don't think he did it as a disrespectful thing I think he just was trying to stand out as far as a characters look
George is famous. He doesn’t need to try and do it. He is a real Gentleman. A man’s man. Thanks for having him on. And thanks to him. Great Great Great!
Its always fun having him on
AGAIN SOSE with the most high quality content. Thank you. RESPECT. # ghostin
Thank you bro
Old skool is the best !💀👍🏻Thanks for sharing with us.
I remember as a teen watching the B Rated Biker Movies of the late 60's and early 70's, cinema was full of club riders, with their bikes all parked up in front of the cinema, different time, but Im old and still remember my friends brother riding his Triumph when he was a Rocker.
I love learning new history of other clubs it's fascinating how much it can change
Hey Sose,
If you want to know the real story about Funny Sonny's involvment with the AOA, and Danny Lyon, reachout to Surfer in Florida. Surfer has been an active Outlaw since 1965. He was there when Lyon took that pic of Funny Sonny on the back of Zipco's bike.
Take care brother.

I'll try. I know him, but no guarantees he'll do it.
I'm not a biker by any means. However, I grew up living in trabuco canyon. Every Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday was Cooks Corner. I've been going there since I was an infant. I have 1 Hells Angels story . I was about 8 years old playing pool by myself. This guy came up, in a hells angel vest, with Vice President on it , saying " okay , my table now" I didn't know what they were, I'm an 8 year old little girl. So I said " you can play me for it. " he goes " I'm not playing no little girl " bartender even said , if she isn't done, you gotta play her for it. So we play . 20 minutes go by and here comes another guy with a vest , slams $20 on the table and says " I bet she kicks your ass. " laughing. So I took the bet. There was 1 stripe and the 8 ball left. I called " 8 ball corner pocket" sunk my shot , grabbed the 20 and got a burger before rejoining my mom and grandma outside . About an hour later those 2 guys walk out and over to our table. My mom and grandma are sitting bricks. The VP looks at my mom and says " you got one hell of a kid there" and leaves. Every so often I notice a member riding behind my car . No way they remember me , but it's almost a comforting sight . My grandmother was also at the hotel the Angels and Mongles threw down at in Laughlin.
If I recall correctly, the Gangland show with Funny Sonny was about a real mean group of Christies former club who had a beef with Santa who was claiming to be "legacy" member of the club and was killed at a party of which they had invited him to, and the same dudes were the ones who damn near killed Funny Sonny and took away all of his club stuff with their name or likeness.
In the bikeriders you could see Danny lyons had a vandals patch on the scene when they got in the fight with that Gary mc when the member said a vandal scratched his bike then Benny came over and decked the guy haha loved that scene but Lyons had a patch on there could only see it briefly in few scenes then later didn't have it on
BX bro, I saw the movie last friday with my son. I thought it was pretty good. George Christie is right, the way they showed the transformation from the old school to the new school guys was dead on. I’ve seen that at a big party down here every year, new faces, and idk who the hell they are. Makes ya feel old quick. lol your dong a hell of a job BX bro. Can’t wait to see what’s next.
Thank you BX brother
You seen his dong?
I had an experience years ago, me and several other guys were in a van heading west in January and got a flat just out of the South Side of Chicago. A number of clubs flew past us, didn’t offer to help, didn’t even stop except for one club. The Outlaws, I’ll never forget that as long as I live. 15FF15 Respect for Charlie.
If you ever rode in a motorcycle club I think you can understand the movie better than most civilians.
Yes I thought the same thing walking out of the theater
Civilians clown
And your point is?
@@jizim8947 G4y comment
Lol, unless you're military, we all civilians. Gangs and MCs don't make you not a civ. Not special, for making up your own rules with your bike bros. 😂😂😂😂😂
This comment is hilarious.
"Civilians"
What you an alien?
People need to do some research. Reedus has already talked about the character and his visual effects.
Were talking about the real funny sonny
I do remember seeing somewhere that Reedus also wanted to distinguish his character from Daryl from TWD, who already has that biker vibe.
Reedus said to the director you’ve got all these good looking guys in the movie so he was trying to be different
And he didn’t want to just be Darryl

I had to have a 45 stuck in my ear before I heard that only club guys talk about club guys. I good friend stuck it in my ear. A lesson well learned, and a friend for life.
Damn.
Sure you don’t have to try to be cool and tough
The Bike Rider was a great movie.
I just found out about it and I'm trying to find where I can watch it for free. Definitely not paying for a bikers movie that would be completely against the culture
@@jizim8947 it’s only a movie. Entertainment.
Nice to see these 2 becoming friends.
Thank you
@@DemonsRow I've had an obsession with Motorcycles my whole life. Grew the balls to actually:Take the msf course, get the license, than get the bike. I definitely got the bike, 1998 Yamaha VStar 650 *ahem* "Custom*.
I'm stupid......point is I may not have ridden it as much as I really want to. BUT...point is this channel is something that in far more ways than one. Has taught me about the love of community. Plus teaching u ourself about the intricacies what makes it great.
my first time seeing this channel. 666K subs on a channel called demons row is crazy 😂😂
yes bugged out
Funny Sonny lived the Outlaws so much he quit the HA and joined the AOA in Chicago
Funny sunny also left the HAs because they found out he was dressing up and doing drag shows
@@fedsmoker7714of course your right...he worked with your dad.
@@fedsmoker7714 he left? 😅😅😅😅
Christie still profiting off a club ..fkn parasite.
Still lyin still yakking
At the ending of the movie, it felt to real. It's basically how it is being in a top 10 1%er MC. People are serious most of the time.

I love wacthing old biker movies, there funny has heck. I wonder if George was at Altamount concert, i bet he new some of those guys..🤟
Keep riding baby without weapons without violence without hatred ❤
Truth
Thanks for sharing Sose! You are a gem!! Peace out Sir!
Appreciate you
Just as ole George had commented about how much time and work goes into producing these podcasts. I appreciate your time and hard work you do Sose and I want to wish you and your family a very safe and happy 4th of July.
Thank you for that. Enjoy the holiday. Happy 4th of july
One of few space that respect their elder
Always
I’ve seen the bikeriders twice and I loved it both times. I want to see it again
Great job brother Thanks 🙏
Thank you
it was a very goood movie .. it wasnt exactly what i was expecting i was expecting them to learn more into the crime side and wild side of the life from how the trailers made it seem .
The life style isn't what it once was
Bike Rider movie well acted. This movie took place also 20 years after the Hollister rally that changed MC's. Even in the 60"s still easy just a start a MC just before the Hollister rally. In the movie the original members didn't like the younger members ways. Tom Hardy played a good leader. Austin Butler character want both his love. He ended leaving the club and got the woman. If the Hollister rally staged autograph didn't hope how would MC's be today? I think they changed slower. Growing up in 70's we rode mini anywhere meeting different riders. We also would jump our bicycles like Evil Kneivel. We all got along. I wish I could have met the real Funny Sonny and had a beer with him. I think Funny Sonny would have like the days before Hollister
All clubs got a long drink beer together, race bikes for beer. When my dad was young he heard a pack of bikes coming. One bike came over the hill first. The rider was stand on his seat. Than the other 11 bikes came over hill. A sent to see my dad said. There is another bike rider that's in the Sturgis museum hall of frame. Look up Gloria Struck. She started riding when women couldn't ride. She never gave up . She couldn't did hotel or motel room cause she rode a bike. Label an outcast She I guess rode up to 90 years old. The later years Gloria rose with her daughter. Would like to here more stories from George and Old John. Especially bikers before the Hollister rally. P.S. maybe cool places to ride to.
The awful teeth were purely Norman Reedus' idea. He wanted that look for his character's representation on screen. The prosthetics were made and he went to shops and bars etc. with the teeth before shooting to make himself comfortable with the prosthetics on and also to just fck with people 😂 in an interview he said that he wanted to go in the opposite direction in terms of looks because "there is already a lot of handsome men in the movie" .
😂
A Toast To Sose The Ghost - The Host With The Most
So glad to hear a review from bikers and that you liked it. I like this movie too.
appreciate you
Sose, always enjoy your interviews. People criticize the storytelling device having a female tell the story, but in it’s defense it tracks in the sense that a member, a man wasn’t going to talk about the club and tell their story to an outsider. That’s not how this works. It makes sense that a wife of a prominent member that wanted her husband to get out would divulge all kinds of details that would provide enough information to tell a compelling story.
Another great show .👍😎
Enjoy your day 💖
Thank you! You too!
The Bikeriders was excellent!!!
Love the nicknames of these men😅
That was an outstanding sit down, it went by too quick. Listening to George Christie reminisce about those early days giving a firsthand account of what transpired is incredible, I just went to see “Bikeriders” the other day and didn’t know the backstory was about a real MC and that it was based on facts, now I need to read the book! Great video!
Thank you
If you want to know what was behind the idea of the teeth , you should interview Norman Reedus, they were his idea
book it
I went and saw the bikeriders when it came out and loved it. Saw a quiet place day one when that came out and found a giant bikeriders poster in a garbage can, mostly intact and took it home.
Norman Reedus brought the idea of the teeth. I saw in another interview with him that he said he wanted to change his look and not look like Daryl Dixon. It took me a few seconds to recognize him when he first rode up in the movie.
I cannot wait to see this movie , Norman made up his own character , and created what he wanted to get into his character . I think he is so talented , he got to be what he wanted . From what I gather , the movie feels like a tragic love story , yet gives us a bit of a perspective of real MC culture from the past . Cheers , thanks you two .
Cheers enjoy it
Freakking brilliant follow-up! Really cool you have these knowledgeable historians of motorcycle lore you can pool from.👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
Y’all have to see Norman Reedus show Ride! If you haven’t already, it’s dope
No i havent gotta check it out

Great content as always Sose George is very articulate and a wealth of knowledge about MC culture the HA’s in particular
thank you
Great content as usual, I liked the movie, im there to be entertained but also depicted the difference between the 60s and 70s, which was not only the biker culture but the change in our culture as a country forever
Great show, keep them coming.
Thanks, will do!
Thanks good content, love it ❤❤❤
Glad you enjoy it!
Don’t know how accurate his portrayal of Funny Sonny was, but his performance was my favorite part of the movie
Shining the light of love on the culture. Thank you for the open minded approach. More truth less fiction. That’s why I’m here.
Appreciate you
that biker photo i want on a shirt of funny sunny. best picture ever of bikers and with 2 clubs honored at same time.
Americana at it best
Sose. I saw an interview with Norman and he said the teeth were his idea. He said that he did it because they had a lot of good looking guys in the movie and he wanted to go in a little bit of a different direction
Yea ive been hearing that
I saw an interview Norman said he did the teeth thing because all the other actors are good looking guys so he wanted to be different.
Nice,thanks for some info about him
Appreciate you brother
Imagine trying to keep an accurate historical record for over 70 years when most of the best stories everyone was drunk ,high , and as much adrenaline as humanly possible was coursing through their veins….
The most important thing Norman ever did was getting a Provari and quitting smoking. He saved a lot of lives with that.
Thanks. I'll definitely see it once it's released in Aust 16:36 ralia. Too many said they didn't like it, but what would a non club rider know.
Sose, great videos since day one keep on rockin em
Norman has expressed in multiple interviews his respect for the history and asked permission to ugly up the character because there were so many "Pretty Boys" and wanted to go the other way in depicting the character
Once again you always keep it real brother !!
The real stars of The Bikeriders were the bikes.
The bikes were not impressive
I remember growing up and being in my home town in Illinois and The Outlaws came rolling in for a concert Lynyrd Skynyrd was playing. Competely respectful and didn't cause any trouble. I actually felt kind of safer.
Sose. Been loving all your videos since I found your channel not long ago. But what song is your intro song. Sounds badass!
Thank you jacob lizotte check out his CZcams
@@DemonsRowhell yeah. His music is dope! Remember the song name?
Sometimes seeing a story from a different perspective is refreshing. Patched membership don't always tell stories..if you know, you know..🤫
Cool story about MC .. awesome movie 🍿 😎👌
Those two clearly had enough respect for each other to set their differences aside and realize they had more alike than different. Peace be upon you Sose AND EVERYONE reading this.5:20 pm cst
appreciate you
💪🏽💪🏽 love the history and knowledge let's go!!
Norman says in an interview he wasn't wanting people to see his character from walking dead in this movie , so he did the look of funny Sonny different than it was wrote in the script
Oh fuck yeah if Norman is in the new bikers film im gonna watch it now
He is
@@DemonsRow he already plays one of the inspirations for me getting a bike, he just keeps going. God what i would give to meet that man
Great interview STG......Great content!
He talked about the teeth on Jimmy Kemal interview
Another good one Sose. I didn't see the movie yet.

i seen george in the early 90s at pismo beach hanging out at Hartys bar and grill
Benny Bauer lives in Florida these days. He was real, Google and you could hear those tapes. She talks about how Benny parks outside her house, its a little different from the movie, but not much.
I would like to see you interview Norman
that would be fun
@DemonsRow Norman seems as humble as they come and he loves the life, I bet it would be possible if you could get in touch with the right people. If not in person maybe like a zoom call or something

I wish there was more unity and less division between clubs. The young folks need to be taught and learn the old ways.
I agree
Hi there. Do you know where I could buy a copy of the picture with Funny Sunny on the back of the Outlaws’ bike? 🏍️ I’ve looked everywhere on the internet. Thank you Sose.
Saw it Friday, really enjoyed it
He decided so he didn't look like daryl from WOD. He talks about it in interviews.
Norman said he wanted to wear the teeth like that because he didn't want to look like Daryl Dixon.
What if they did that to Norman’s teeth in effort to keep him from looking like Daryl Dixon? I confess I didn’t recognize him right off the bat
He wanted to do that
Norman said they didn’t want him to look like Daryl in a recent interview so he brought glasses teeth and beard on set with him he also didn’t know the glasses were prescribed too till they started filming
Sose my brother much respect for you from Da Bronx. ☠🏴☠️♠️
BX all day
Fantastic content as always 🤙
Glad you enjoyed it
