Produktbeschreibung

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Tim Armstrong was born November 25 in 1965. He has two brothers- Jeff and Greg; Greg is in the army. At the age of six, Armstrong met Matt Freeman while playing Little League Baseball in California. Freeman became one of his best friends and the bass player for Rancid. Armstrong and Freeman grew up together in Albany, California. Embracing punk culture during high school, Armstrong's favorite groups were the Clash and the Ramones. Armstrong was quoted in Maximum Rancid - The Unauthorized Biography Of Rancid, that "If it wasn't for the Ramones, Rancid would have never become a group." After the demise of his first locally (and later internationally) successful group, Operation Ivy, Armstrong suffered from alcoholism, and eventually became homeless. During this time, Freeman suggested the two start a group together, partially in hopes of curbing Armstrong's alcohol addiction. Armstrong began writing songs that would appear on their first album, Rancid.
