As I pull up to my house, sitting there happy as can be next to the gate is Lou Dog. I finally drive home, to drop off my roommate who was exhausted. We spent the next couple of hours looking for him, driving around, calling his name, but no luck. He wasn’t going to just sit in the van while Brad was in the club. Brad and the band decided they would just bring Louie back to the club with them and just let Louie sit in the van. We locked Mac in my room, but he hated that, and was a constant distraction through the interview. The second Louie got into my yard, he went at it hard with my dog, Mac, who was a big dog himself. So with their 3 dogs and my 2 dogs, of course there was going to be a dog fight. So the guys and I went back to my house to eat and do an interview for a Japanese punk magazine. But the manager knew me better than I thought, and warned me he would pull the plug mid show if I tried to pull anything sideways with Louie and sneak him in. I told him, not to worry about it, figuring we’d just sneak him in amongst all the chaos. The manager of the venue, of course pulled me aside and said, no way Lou Dog could be in the bar during the show. I think the other two were used to hanging out in the van, but Louie was used to going with Brad into the shows and hanging out on stage. But I’ll always remember the time they came down early and actually did a sound check, where Brad, Bud and Eric, all brought their dogs. We always knew they’d show up, but they sure made us sweat more than a few times, skipping any kind of sound check and showing up right when they were due to go on. In the mid 90’s, Sublime shows were always a little sketchy. Ryan White from SRH explains the story behind an iconic Sublime photo and Losing Lou Doug:
