SO... WHAT HAS THE SINGER FROM OPERATION IVY BEEN UP TO LATELY?

Yeah, yeah, we all know that Matt and Lint went on to play in Rancid (at least those of us over 30), but whatever happened to Jesse Michaels, the energetic, charismatic frontman from the popular ska-punk outfit Operation Ivy? That guy seemed to have his shit together, how come he didn't go on to (quote unquote) bigger and better things?
Oh wait, he did?
Yup.

Enjoy:

    Did you put the athlete's picture on the youtube? Or did the guy who shits in the bathtub and calls it "self spa treatment"? Either way this is way better than Rancid. I have no idea why people hated on Rancid and called them sellouts or whatever. I thought they were a great '90s version of Foreigner.

    BOO-YAH!

    Nothing but cold, hard facts here on IC, buddy.

    PS "Classics of Love" is one of the worst band names I've EVER heard. And I've heard a lot of shitty band names.

    part two is brilliant, especially the end where he does that "review". this should be the new standard for all music reviews!

    so awesome.
