Talk:Brett Gurewitz

Untitled
He is not an atheist. So I'm removing the tag at the bottom of the page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.166.37.235 (talk) 05:35, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Why was Brett not in Bad Religions Australian tour? And was somewhat disappointing for him to not be there... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.178.218.168 (talk) 14:33, 11 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Brett hardly ever plays with BR anymore apparently. Only shows in California. I remember an article saying that he only plays at shows he can drive to. Jabso (talk) 15:45, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

brett gurewitz was never in nofx

SNOT
Is the snot section necessary? Takes so much space on the page, for some minor critizism. Seems like a curiosity. 84.48.169.164 23:37, 5 April 2007 (UTC)Frode

Pietasters
Gurewitz also produced (and did some backing vocals on) the Pietasters' "Awesome mix tape #6," 1999.

DoB
Lead says '64, Cat says '62, LoPbN said '55 until i changed it to "born c. 1960". --Jerzy•t 06:37, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

Search here under Brett Gurewitz, and it says 1962-05-12.--Fallout boy 03:15, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

He was 17 when he started Bad Religion in 1980. Work it out from there.

His official Myspace page says he's now 42 years old, which means he could be born in 1964. Alex 15:08, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

I was born 5/12/62 so I guess I should update my Myspace page more often.--71.157.186.81 08:02, 16 December 2006 (UTC)BrettGurewitz

Drug Addiction
I find it interesting that this page doesn't mention Gurewitz's battles with drug addiction. They were a major cause of strife within Bad Religion for a number of years.


 * It's not all that necessary, and it's certainly not required for a synopsis of one's life to smear them every time a chance exists. Plus, can you personally cite a credible source that verifies this claim?  DrMorelos 17:40, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Yeah it's called his own admissions, and the LA County DA's office. Look it up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.195.178.80 (talk) 22:50, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

I second that there should be a section about his drug addiction. By his own self admissions it has shaped his life and Bad Religion's career significantly. It's unfair to call it smearing someone's life when he himself admits it openly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.182.150.244 (talk) 14:34, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

Children's Names?
If the names of his children are correct, then we can ask whether daughter Frida was named after the famous artist Kahlo. But if we do, then we must ask where Max came from; was it equally famous sociologist Weber? DrMorelos 17:44, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Frida was named after her paternal grandmother, Freda Kay.--71.157.186.81 07:59, 16 December 2006 (UTC)BrettGurewitz

Snot
The producer for their [first album?] Get Some is listed as "Mr. Brett"; would I be crazy in thinking it's the same person? MonstaPro 05:50, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Fair use image removal
I have removed all or a majority of the fair use images on this page as their use was not in line with our Non-free content criteria policy (likely in that the use is not minimal (3.a.) and it is in a list or a gallery (8.)) or our Non-free content guideline that states that cover images may only be used for critical commentary on the cover itself, not just identification. Please do not re-add them without discussion. Kotepho 10:04, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Gurewitz in 2014
What happened to the guy? I found pictures of him on the net, dating from the year 2014, showing him gaunt and thin, looking like a junkie. I thought he was clean. And where are his tats? Is he sick or something? Man, what happened? No explanation can be found on the internet. Is this really the same person or just a mistake?--87.184.146.71 (talk) 10:07, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
