Descendents - "When I Get Old" Epitaph Records

[TransistorRevolt1999]

I love you Blank TV. For real. You upload all the videos I can't find anywhere else... thanks for not being vevo. :))

[camilovargas0000]

you are old! (but still awesome)

[2090278]

i have a fucken question everyone!

i been seeing lots of people wearing a similar design of descendents album cool to be you in t-shirts!

i thought they were actually Descendent T-shirts but it said diamond and instead of cool to be you it said cool to be me.....i am so confuesed :/

[AlmostaFlipinSkater]

@2090278

YES!

I see someone at my school wear that and it's black, says "Diamond" and "Cool to be Me."

I would ask him, but I see it from a distance and have no way of asking him later because I don't even know him.

[miscriant]

@2090278 diamond is a skate brand i actually personally wear diamond shirts, most skate brands pay tribute to punk bands with using their logos

[rocketboy375]

fuck ever growing up!

[zeroxanthony]

i want a gif or whatever moving picture's are called of the milo growing up.

[MrAndyvalente]

yeah, hearing this and the rest of "Everything Sucks" totally affected my adolescent life, and iI'm happy to have experienced it- though it would've been WAAAAY cooler to have been around to have caught on in their beginnings.

[reginabelll]

YES

[robertmondry]

what is so punk about telling others what punk is.

[tomagirl83]

Can't wait for Riot Fest CHIIIICCCAAAAAGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO so excited!

[izbm666]

When i get old imma chug a lug my coffee mug

[russwood835]

<3

[AxialCyosine]

I'm only discovering this band and I'm nearly 30! I would have friggin' loved this when I was 13/14. Kids nowadays don't know how easy they have got it with YouTube or other media to access music with. Better late than never though.

[alienaorta]

punch on brotha punch on

[leonardrou]

1996! somewhere around that time they made this video!

[astros0]

if you really wanna be punk kill yourself. that's the ultimate fuck you to the man. as long as you use money you're not punk, you're part of the system.

[ttraynor1]

Okay--So how many punk bands am I allowed to like? Cause it seems there is maybe one or two actual punk bands--and everybody else ripped off everybody else. Or "sold out" --even Joe Strummer! Or can I just like............the music? I know--weird.... If I don't get an answer, I am just going to shoot up and O.D. That would be punk--wouldn't it? Hate always.....

[mythkid1208]

I wonder the same thing everyday

[davidnala123]

Is that Milo's house?

[TheIllegalKind]

what bass is karl using

[Gzusbulululululululu]

why dont all bands sound as good as descendents, seriously? not one shitty album. always sounded great.

[zackhanscom]

what an ear sore. why the hell would anyone want to listen to this crap? get some taste, fuck-o

[immutableshit]

@zackhanscom

lulz

[astrophysics1997]

@zackhanscom Because we like it? And it's not shitty fucking rap?

[Punkinonthefloor]

Jesus I would have loved to be a teenager in the fucking 90's. 2000's sucks hard.

[leolnz]

@Punkinonthefloor 2000's sucked but we are in the 2010's which sucks harder...

[DRUGFREEG]

@Punkinonthefloor the real punk rock bands still kick ass, no matter if 90's or not. we just have to listen to the real shit, yo! ;D

[vlaflipification]

@Punkinonthefloor I know right. The music of our generation sucks pretty bad

[ManCityFan21]

@Punkinonthefloor amen

[luc00leh]

@Punkinonthefloor And still dude the 80s was the best! When Metallica was at there best.

[TheRevantproduc]

@luc00leh And Metallica is shit.

70's/90's

best

[cafeledavid]

[lahc666]

Happy Pop Punk Appreciation Day everyone! WOOOOOO!

[81Chops]

Is that the Fight Club house?

[brandon60622]

[georgelio3]

Rivers has stolen a lot from this band, but has not said,any one thing to know that will never reach their descendants...

[warpiglet75]

Very She's My Ex ending :) Love it . Best band ever!

[mindfreak061]

what album is this from

[misfits765]

@mindfreak061 cool to be you? i think....

[misfits765]

@mindfreak061 no nevermind,.. its everything sux

[silenceorder]

@mindfreak061 somery

[delonge5000]

i think milo is one of the coolest men in punk.

[nymetsrock]

@delonge5000 ill agree, but just an honest answer, are you actually conisdering delonge a member of a punk band?

[MrTzwrtzhs]

@nymetsrock Blink 182 punk is reffering mainly to teenagers!(Anthem.Anthem part 2) and blink never asked anyone what to do they did what they want to do!!! Even now!!!

Because Punk it's not only the sound, the music, Punk is a lifestyle - Billie Joe Armstrong

[nateclarkyboy]

Jokes, just trollin' haha

[nateclarkyboy]

@nateclarkyboy They're playing a free show at dundas square (Toronto) June 16th

[nateclarkyboy]

This rips off the "Stay together for the kids" video

[skinnyhurley]

@nateclarkyboy No, this song was released long before that blink 182 song, so get it right.

[nateclarkyboy]

@skinnyhurley I'm obviously joking man

[Hornwiesel]

man i love them

[brewsersdmf]

aw hell he's even more punk than me.

[TheIllegalKind]

11 people got old

[skamastershane13]

get to see the descendents this year. scratch that off the bucket list.

[mistermusicvideos]

Arguing over the internet about punk is not punk. Shut up.

[gdrugg2006]

Dude, I can't believe that they're old now.

[davenow]

telling people that you have to fit a given criteria to be punk, is VERY not punk. 

So keep telling people that they are or are not punk because they dont CONFORM to your ideals. Meanwhile, they have the balls to not CONFORM to your bullshit. How about you just give it up, find another bandwagon to jump on? Because if you are gonna tell people they are or are not punk, then man, you need to look in the mirror and see the face of everything that is NOT punk, staring back at you.

[RevenantEternal]

Descendents are a legendary punk band PERIOD! They influenced and paved the way for countless bands that sold millions of records like Blink, Green Day etc etc. I'll take Milo Goes To College over any album by The Sex Pistols, DK and The Ramones...and I love The Ramones.

[y0uthpr0ject]

How else am I suppose to get scene points if not by thrashing other bands I deem " not punk"?

[DylanFaircloth]

people that sit around and say whats punk and whats not and has nothing better to do than tell people they arent punk dont know what punk really is. Descendents are a good band.

[MrBeavisandbutthead1]

I ask myself these questions everyday

[TRE1275]

I punched a dude in the face for saying that Milo is ripping off Rivers from Weezer. Some people need educated fists to the grill.

[georgelio3]

@TRE1275 good man ,So you need ...

[brandon60622]

@TRE1275 wow. mature. good work.

[IGotAPagina]

@TRE1275 I know and Milo is like 50.

[theoriginalHUFFnPUFF]

@TRE1275 hahahaha funny how people think bands came out before their influences

[Gzusbulululululululu]

@TRE1275 punch on bro

[silenceorder]

@TRE1275 milo was so rivers before he was rivers!!!

descendents my favorite band since 1989!

[vohaul]

@TRE1275 I usually call the Descendents the Weezer of the punk world, and I call Weezer the Descendents of the alternative rock world. The similarities in subject matter and the looks of both Milo and River are too much to ignore. But I am a fan of both, so *I* see the similarity as a positive thing. Neither is ripping the other off. They're both epic in their own ways.

[WowlxX]

@TRE1275 OMG no.... thank you for preserving the Descendents' honor and punk's in general. Jesus man...

[RustleXer]

@TRE1275 you did the right thing good sir :D

[poppunkjamey]

@TRE1275 exactly wtf milo has been around since the 80s

[rebelbrown101]

my favorite punk album of all time! :)

[nymetsrock]

@rebelbrown101 milo goes to college ranks above this, and so do a lot of others in my opinion, but maybe you just havent been fully introduced yet, or maybe you have, i dont know

[Hardrockslims]

If you can sing and play like this, meet me out back.

[Boisits13]

Isn't punk like smash mouth or something?

[STEAKdrapes79]

@Boisits13 oh seriously fuck yourself

[Boisits13]

@STEAKdrapes79 Calm down lmao, i was only kidding.

[STEAKdrapes79]

@Boisits13 you would almost have to be.

[ddrfreak7714]

@Boisits13 WRONG

[RavinPingu]

Groezrock 2011 ^^

[ChrisWensink]

@ChiCityx23 But whats wrong with fighting, I like fighting, RABBLE...RABBLE RABBLE...RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE

[JacobDeadman]

punk is about doing whatever the fuck you want. and the Descendents are doingf just that.

[ChaseTheCapital]

there was a cerial killer on CSI that looks like him ^^

[generik88]

What album is this on?

[Mohammets]

This is so funny. Ever heard Beach Boys "When I Grow Up To Be A Man"? It's obvious wear the lyrical inspiration for this song came from if you know what I'm talking about.

[kaaatieemayy]

The Descendents are melodic Hardcore, which was inspired by the Punk style/music in the 80s.

[rella8672]

@kaaatieemayy-  Umm..The Descendents WERE the Punk style/music in the 80's. I guess they inspired themselves

[kaaatieemayy]

@rella8672 I said that the genre was inspired by the punk scene, not that the band was inspired by it.

[silenceorder]

@kaaatieemayy descendents actually got their start in the hardcore scene in the 80's when it started. listen to their old stuff

[silenceorder]

@kaaatieemayy  descendents were part of the hardcore scene when it was brand new in the 80's

[rebelbrown101]

i play this album all the time when im washing dishes at my job :)

[MattyCreed]

NOFX are the shit, but the descendants are the assholes that made em

[ramal647]

Saw the Descendents tonight. My life is complete.

[rebelbrown101]

best decendents album ever!

[TheD29d]

bill stevenson is a great

[calebmNelson]

If anyone thinks they know what the punk movement was about, why don't you tell me why you care to tear down another band, and try to disprove that they consider themselves a punk band? You obviously give too much of a fuck about classification and are wrapped up in labels and all similar bullshit. You know nothing about punk rock if you have to take time out of your day to look for videos of "non-punk" bands and state your unwanted opinion. If you don't like the Descendents, that's fine. GTFO!

[shcubasshteve]

@calebmNelson so true bro...punks just about punk, not bashing.

[dirtroadhero141]

@calebmNelson Thank You, I almost can't stand this "emo" stuff but i'm not gonna hate on a kid in skinny jeans with makeup onat a h2o or Dropkick Murphys show. That's never what the scene was about. I was born in '78 the pistols hit big in '77. When I went to all ages shows in the '80's and '90's tje Ramones fans from back in the day didn't hate on me.

[dirtroadhero141]

@calebmNelson wasn't at all calling the Descendants emo just getting a point across

[Pj311foo]

@calebmNelson coolstorybro

[ZENlTRAM3]

@calebmNelson Amen

[leowbox]

this song is great, this album is classic

[glitcher999]

milo goes to college surpasses every other descendents album by a million miles. that album is the fucking shit and always will be

[tomvear]

haha this sucks

[picoyzorra13]

@tomvear

go fuck your self, you dont know anything about punk music

[tomvear]

@picoyzorra13 this isnt punk. FAIL

[MrSatisfiction]

@tomvear - I stand by every word you have just said about his not being punk. Well, I suppose its kind of punk. You know, the half-assed kind of embarrassing, non-threatening punk that radio stations would play over the "other" type of punk that is worth listening to like the Ramones, Sex Pistols or the Dead Kennedys to name a few. Anyway, punk exists in a totally different guise nowadays - its only the dinosaurs that still have mohawks and kilts.

[madskatermb]

@MrSatisfiction you really dont know what your talking about. just because a band has a softer sounding less thrashy song doesnt mean shit.theyre musicians. they wrote a fucking song. and this is what came out.awesome. they played with the best of em.im happy that the descendents dont sound like the ramones or the pistols or even dk. because then it would be the same old shit. and believe me.theres way better bands then the ones you just named if you want to get hardcore punk. in the UK and US

[tprimex2000]

@MrSatisfiction You do realize the Ramones get played on the radio often right?

[kowtpr187]

@MrSatisfiction dork.

[kalikovisionmaster]

@MrSatisfiction Too bad all three of those bands probably got double the airtime that Descendents ever got. Go shove the stand-for-nothing Johnny Rotten up your ass and let people enjoy their music.

[slayerrules114]

@MrSatisfiction And kilts are SO punk. -.-

[BRp4e]

@tomvear shows what you know.

[picoyzorra13]

@tomvear

your mom didn't told me that

fucker

[Gigdoat]

@tomvear You're obviously one of those ghetto rap teenagers, girl obviously, that think they can say anything they want. Our music is better than whatever YOU listen to. Yes, I capitalize and use apostrophes, so call me a nerd, loser.

[setaboy]

never burn out!

[UntouchableLunchable]

that song i wanna take a journey to the end of my life is rape ripping off this song.

[ogreskulls]

Without the Descendents, every pop "punk" band would never have existed.

[puredemocracy]

@ogreskulls some of the other big influences on some of the neo pop punk are the vandals, sloppy seconds, and old stuff green day wrote. All of which were started either mid to late 80s. sloppy/green day were later than the vandals.. that's my opinion.. but i believe it to be factual. I think it's because the descendents were the earliest of these bands, they get all the credit for it.  though i like all 4 bands :D mostly descendents/the vandals.

[jimmiow]

their coming to sydney in a few months so you can all go suck on my jagon!

[heymaxsup]

@badreligionism nope, the guitarest died a couple years back :(((

[thescabman]

@heymaxsup They're playing in Australia in December, so they must 'still be a band'.

[samhainkid]

@heymaxsup their original guitarist, Frank Navetta died. Stephen Egerton has been their guitarist for years though and is still quite alive. they are playing around this year.

[badreligionism]

are the Descendents still a band O_O

[samhainkid]

@badreligionism yes they are.

[CreepyFreakFilms]

Descendents are the greatest. This video's depressing at the end, though. Haha.

[georgelio3]

This song reminds me of school year!!

i love Milo!!

[41falsestarts]

Such a great song, great in its simplicity.

[BadActStudios]

What most people don't know is that the Descendants was Green Days favorite band, so they probably wouldn't have existed either.

[TheKrowProductions]

@BadActStudios wow really

[SnorklinWithCudas]

these guys are true badasses

[ultamatebeatlefan]

I want to be Milo Aukerman when i grow up.

[lilte]

makes me wanna jump on a skateboard, put my headphones on and go crazyyyyyyyyyy!!

[Saroarr]

awsome

[TheUnderdogzX]

i absolutely love this video i hope they start playing shows again soon

[sirskull21]

blink 182 were inspired by these guys

[guitarman104]

@sirskull21 yepp and screeching weasel and dinosaur jr was marks biggest influence

[mresplendent]

Ha, the guitar sound on this song and record is straight off of Husker Du New Day Rising. I love it. Descendents still rule!

[TRE1275]

Bill Stevenson is THE BEST DRUMMER EVER!!!!

[missionblank1]

@TRE1275 nooooooo niel pert is the best drummer ever!!! havent u seen family guy? it aint easy being cheesy

[TRE1275]

@missionblank1 hahaha I have seen that Family Guy episode. Pert is great, no question, but for straight ahead punk/rock, Bill is untouchable. His drum rolls and timing are f'n INSANE!!!

[nightslayer111]

do the descendents have any other political songs in the vein of 'merican?

[willrags]

Great song! Best song on that album which proved that the Descendents could still come up with some great songs.

[JeffDahlin]

Ah man, I love Descendents. Wish they'd play some live shows these days--they're the last band that I haven't seen that I'd really like to. I've been lucky enough to catch all of my other favourite bands live.

[Pogokid150]

This song always remind me to stay young forever.

DESCENDENTS FUCKIN RULE!!!

[marleySux]

my favorite "punk" band ever

[andynfb]

such a great band. love to see a band thats been around since pretty much the dawn of west coast punk. so many generations that they've reached. so fucking rad.

[brotherwanky12]

thank god for this band,they brought up such good bands like nofx

[TheRationalBeing]

One more thing, the Descendents will never burn out. Their music is as great now as it was when they started. Coolige fuckers!

[TheRationalBeing]

I found out what it is like now that I'm old. I ride my bike, don't care about being anyone, definitely not like other adults. I'm poor, don't sleep on the floor, but I sure do like grabbing my girlfriends ass. I still hate cops, and all my grown up friends can go fuck themselves if they want to judge me. I do myself proud, and I do what I want. Punk till death, whatever the fuck that means. DYI

[ebone9]

does anyone know if the video was shot in Ft. Collins while they were there? Hard to say from the exteriors or bike ride shots.

[rickface13]

great tune ..and makes ya think too huh? lol

[mlew]

@rickface13 well i loved the song at 15, covered descendants in bands from 17-24yo. now i'm going on 31, and i appreciate it from the other side.

[rickface13]

@mlew yea, me too but even at 30 it makes you think about even further down the line.. cuz your never really old untill you allow your self to give up...

[Viacomclosedmedown]

O.K. this will finally now finnnallllyyy be my last saved favorite on my page--I believe too many are harder to keep track of and this one defines my page.....yeah Billy Stevenson the drummer had a girlfriend in Minneapple so we always got to talk to him on the curb outside the Entry waitin' to get in..a free food place on one corner a liquor store directly across First Ave (or Uncle Sam's the old converted greyhound bus depot back then was Prince's First Ave club)

[jkipcount]

Love the Anthrax "Madhouse" video tribute.

[unshamed]

I am the god of punk. I modify all my clothes, even my underwear, and put studs on everything. I hate the police, i hate 'the man'. Anarchy is a realistic goal. Any music written after 1978 is not punk. It's pop music. I constantly judge people and bands, because no one is as punk as me. Seriously though, there are some people out there who need to quit judging music for genres. Unless it's shitty 'emoXcore' nonsense. Then you can judge all you want

[dalegov]

@unshamed Alright dude let me break this down. Yes, fuck the government. I agree fully. Between anarchy and this god forasken piece of shit we call a government, you have to pick the lesser of two evils. Your clothing does not matter. fuck that. Otherwise music is great no matter what it's orient, we do need to embrace that. I don't want some punk ass suit holding me down as much as the next guy, but in anarchy you don't have a chance, you can get murdered and w/ no vengeance. I'd want a

[dalegov]

@unshamed chance to get back, rather than burn out, like I was worthless. Punk music, is not some reckless lifestyle, it's music. Also Descendents are post '78.

[unshamed]

@ dalegov, I think the sarcasm of my statement may well have been lost on you. I don't modify my clothes, and I enjoy a great deal of post 1978 punk, in fact, with a few exceptions I find most pre 78 punk atrocious. I don't believe anarchy is a realistic goal, and I love descendents. I apologise for misleading you, but I loathe all this 'I'm punk and you're not' bullshit. By the way, kudos for not just attacking me for my previous statement, even though I was joking. most people on youtube would

[dalegov]

@unshamed Right, it was definitly an attack, right, you can definitly get a sacrcastic tone from text, it's all coming together now...soooo I don't know what you want from me, i was just stating my piece, I mean I know you don't feel like more of a dick, even though you should. Just throwing that out there.

[unshamed]

@ dalegov, I really have no idea what you are talking about. Needless to say whatever we've said to each other doesn't actually matter anyway, so I won't lose sleep over it, and nor should you. Cheers.

[dalegov]

@unshamed Also I wouldn't put it past you modifying your underwear.

[cliffjumper1984]

I wasn't, I felt it was pretty easy to get the gist but whatever, take it easy.

[erichitz79]

i hate to tell ya this also but seems pretty pop.

[dalegov]

@erichitz79 You need to check out othe Descendents songs. I'm the one is kind of pop to, but if you get into their older stuff, you might like it. Also check out "ALL" When Milo was out that's the band everyone else fucked with. Milo helped them out occasionaly to.

[erichitz79]

thank you

[erichitz79]

omg stop mailing and STFU looks like nofx is still selling records... Looks like they did it right. and this is weak punk the lyrics are for girls. its punk lite

[erichitz79]

is this ALL worlds on heroin ???  im so fucking lost i just tryng to find that album.... the descendents are cool i guess... but cant beat NOFX best BAND ever
