life long metalhead and I agree, NOFX rules. Metal is my first love, but there is waaaaay too much good music out there to limit yourself to one genre.
1:02 that’s my mom, dad, and aunt in the background drinking coffee!!! i don’t remember the whole story but i remember them leaving to go to chicago for the weekend to see nofx and somehow they met fat mike and the band outside of the venue (my dad always managed to get to hangout with cool punk rock bands he did the same with the vandals back in the 90s) and years later my dad showed me this video and i randomly remembered it today…
another fun story ab my dad, he went to a vandals concert in 2001 right after 9/11 and chatted it up with the bassist before the show and when the show started they let my dad up on stage to sing one of the songs from the Hitler bad album i believe, anyways that concert was in ATL and my dad was living in northern mississippi at the time so they drove back home after the concert and some of my dads friends who were supposed to be at that concert with them that for some reason couldn’t make were really upset they didn’t get to see them so they found out that same night after the concert that the vandals would be in new orleans the next day so literally not even 24 hrs later my dad and his friends drove down to nola and my dad, again, spotted the bassist and came up to him and the bassist absolutely lost his mind when my dad came up, he must’ve thought my dad was stalking them 🤣 and again once the concert started they let my dad onto the stage and dave (the singer) backed off the mic and gestured my dad towards it to sing again. i hope to have an experience as cool as that one day
All the way from Palm Springs, Just out of detox Show him a warm welcome, Let's give some applause Greetings all hello, welcome to my show I'm sure you'll have fun watching me juggle 8 balls at one time, I'm no fucking mime I play practical jokes, this squirting flower That wasn't flour that blew up your nose It's my special blend of X, coke, and K You should be okay in several hours He's got oversized shoes and ill fitting clothes That is real blood dripping from his fake red nose I'm Cokie the Clown, I will trip you down Those 12 giant steps, I brought you all presents Against good judgement, but being a good host You all have been toast, the kettle corn's been laced The fudge has been lined, you're having a great time But you might not recall from rohypnol in the lemonade, Cokie homemade He's the happiest clown, with the biggest frown He's Cokie the Clown.
It's amazing that a song that is, realistically super depressing, can have this much high-octane energy. Right under the surface, you can just feel the overwhelming anger. I love this.
Remember when Zach De La Rocha said, "Anger is a gift." It's all about how you funnel it. I deal with anger issues myself but i realized I'm just reacting to the evil system we are in. Forced to feel alienated and exploited. We're just a huddled mass depraved from love and community and sensitivity. Everyone stepping all over each other in search for the almighty dollar. While the billionaire class watch us fight for the crumbs that fall from their bib. Our time will come my friends, and boy oh boy will it be righteous 😊
Wandering along the paseo in Fuengirola last year in November while wearing my HNSNSN Discharge t-shirt, a fellow spiky top was sitting in the Olde London Inn Bar wearing his End of Days camiseta. A quick air pump was exchanged with the devils horns. We are very much alive.
i miss going to these shows, i still remember warped tour 02, honestly i really miss this style of music and the people you keep running into over and over at shows
@@helltoupee6664 But Cokie's special blend that he bumps from his flower is a mix of coke, K, and X! Not just coke and we don't know the ratio of one to the others. Don't mean to be such a bummer here but he could actually not remember his party if the blend is K dominant
my ex boyfriend was cokie the clown for Halloween squirting flower and all!! and i think i was tank girl that year. Fat mike has a special place in my heart he always makes my day whenever i see this vid
X coke and K? That certainly be one hell of a special blend. Would gladly put my sobriety on hiatus to share a ball of that with fat mike. High or not these fellas always seem to have fun. How can you not love these guys ?
Saw them twice at resurrection fest and enjoyed as f&%$ing hell. Now i got a ticket to The last show in spain ever (may 24) and i´m afraid the sadness enter my soul for the band that changed my life in 1993 because they´ll quit making so amazing tunes. ETERNAL THANKS TO NOFX, FAT MIKE, ERIC MELVIN, ERIC SANDIN and EL HEFE for making my life so fucking complete. Your albums changed my life in a way i can´t describe but nothing that grateful
i watched "this is the end", and the part where Micheal Cera blows the coke in Christopher's face and says "what does this coke smell like?" i thought of this video immediately
One thing I have always wanted to do is meet fat mike from wat limited information I have from Google n CZcams n listening to his music since before I can remember he seems like a person I would like to know n be friends with along with all of nofx of course don't be silly haha
Hey that guy at 1:06 is Punk Rock Joel, I used to know him. Would always see him at shows, he was a good guy. Weird to just throw a youtube comment here and expect someone to see this and know, but is he around still? I haven't seen him in a while. I hope he is well.
Melvin definitely has a great voice. As a musician and obsessed audiophile of 40+ years I can assure you that the science behind his vocal abilities far passes the majority of singers out there. He also achieves very high note range for yelling in a distorted manner. Not easy whatsoever. Melvin and Mike compliment eachother amazingly.
Nothing like a Nofx binge. I gotta do it every once in awhile to get my bearings.
9 years later, you still getting your fucking bearings, my friend?
facts
@@bugnut82 STILL! I'M HERE! 35 YEARS OLD IN 2022! HELL YA BROTHA!
Big facts
I’ll take a blast of x coke and k
My god I'm gonna miss this band 💚😞
You know they are touring again?
you just young ))
By far the most solid punk band of all-time
Agreed
Easy there
Yes
I mean, how many non drug related crimes did they commit?
Punk from beginning to end
This is easily one their best songs ever!! I finally got to see them sing it live the other night!
So great!! Have you seen the Decline live?? Insane man
That's awesome man. I just saw. Too
Just wait!
@@miketorguson I wish
@@PMurray2694 yep
the drop in the chord progression gives me goosebumps every time
The "Melvin Yell" will go down in rock history. It should have it's own entry in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Next to the man himself obviously!
I shook his hand at SDSU rock against Bush tour, i was so star struck the only thing i could say was " you guys gonna rock tonight?", im such a bitch
is the Punk Yodeling
The greatest ol’days. Miss ‘em man. Miss’em
As a metal head my whole life......nofx is the best!
¡Yeah bro!
OZZY AND FAT MIKE ARE ME EEROS

cokie the clown was the best era of fat mike

One my favorite punk bands of all time!!!!
All the way from Palm Springs,
Just out of detox
Show him a warm welcome,
Let's give some applause
Greetings all hello, welcome to my show
I'm sure you'll have fun watching me juggle
8 balls at one time,
I'm no fucking mime
I play practical jokes, this squirting flower
That wasn't flour that blew up your nose
It's my special blend of X, coke, and K
You should be okay in several hours
He's got oversized shoes and ill fitting clothes
That is real blood dripping from his fake red nose
I'm Cokie the Clown, I will trip you down
Those 12 giant steps, I brought you all presents
Against good judgement, but being a good host
You all have been toast, the kettle corn's been laced
The fudge has been lined, you're having a great time
But you might not recall from rohypnol in the lemonade, Cokie homemade
He's the happiest clown, with the biggest frown
He's Cokie the Clown.
A little late but it's "you all have been dosed"
Legend!
Hahahaha
He was doing Joaquin Phoenix's Joker before it was cool.
Same thought
Dude... I say Fat Mike should be the next Joker
When you bring me out, can you introduce me as Cokie?
@@thescarecrowman 😂😂😂
Punk Rock never dies...
*...so say Goodbye to HOLLYWOOD*
Am I the only one who thinks Fat Mike looks really in shape in this?
Cocaine is good for that.
11 years ago is good for that
straight out of rehab
He seems kind of flat, he's not really that fat.
This was post him cleaning up, he got into working out and stuff. Didn't last long....
Although Mike's alter ego seems sad, this video makes me laugh every time. Tim McIlrath's reaction is the best one 😁
The fact he's probably using quite rarely given his straight edge background makes this even more hilarious
Great song!!! I love the reaction on Fat Mikes face after every time he blows the flower into peoples faces, he looks like he’s having a great time
Lmao the power of it thumping on his chest is hilarious. Just got back from Punk in Drublic. Been a punk since 1980
@@tiffb1300 I’ve seen NOFX 3 times live, Gimmes Gimmes live twice, Lagwagon once
Will someone please hire this guy to come to my birthday?
no one could afford cokies habit let alone cokie XD

+NinjaBrickfilms忍者ブリック映画 my first and the gimmes do lots of birthdays
Quiet Time me*
Really can't believe this song is this old I've been listening to this song for as long as I can remember
Easily my favorite NOFX song
No-one does melodic punk like NOFX.
and bad religion
Except every other generic pop "punk" band on the planet.
Agreed 100% but listen to 88 fingers Louie
Back on the streets
That’s some serious melodic punk right there
This song makes me deeply sad..
Dont know why...
yamine182 Me too it always has. I thought I was just weird lol.
The riff is sad
It's like, it's a sad music with cheerful lyrics :)
Missing the 90's growing up maybe?
No there is def a tragic tone like lotsa their songs
It's amazing that a song that is, realistically super depressing, can have this much high-octane energy.
Right under the surface, you can just feel the overwhelming anger. I love this.
90% of punk songs
👍
@@JustaGoodOlDodge Very true, but it's just got that extra-strong feel here, y'know?
Depressive anger or something. I fucking love this song.
There is literally no or only surface to Noffix and that is why I love them
Yeah this song really is a beauty
I was at this show! I got to meet Fat Mike and Matt Skiba. It was the best day of my life!
I slapped him on the ass twice
I love nofx so much since I was in my angry days still angry at 33 and still listening
then you'll always be angry man,36 and just came out of jail,still angry at everything and everyone,myself included!

I wonder how Tim felt having coke shot at his face since he's a straight edge...
chef meemo the da emo penguin kid big dog i doubt it was actually coke lol, maybe tho
"that's what you get for selling out!"
Damn it’s been years but I purchased this when it was new.. we all become memories. Some more than others.
LOL! Matt Skiba at the end
i know its been 7 years but that was tim mcilrath
I know it's been 4 years but he meant the clip before Tim
Always having fun NoFX, I wish I could meet cokie the clown.
One of the greatest songs EVER!
Such a good song, great video too
Agreed
20 years of non stop each day Nofx.. at least 30 different songs a day..get me through the days.
Thank you Guys ❤ rock the fuck on .
