T.S.O.L Live from O.C. Dvd/facts. May, 2002

A 1991 reunion show under the name, Superficial Love? TSOL was not legally allowed to play as TSOL? They even went under the name L.O.S.T? This show was shot,and produced over a decade ago. It took producer/skateboarder, Richard White, a total of 11 years to finally get this production put together. Legal issues with the band, licensing, post production, editing, graphics, and timing. It was never intended for release on Dvd, as Dvd in 1991, did not exist. With todays new technology, and being that punk rock is socially acceptable now, the producer, and T.S.O.L management, agreed that this should be released as a concert/documentary/time capsule/video.

In memory of original Drummer Todd Barnes

The graphics consist of the Statue of Liberty, with a war painted face, as frontman Jack, painted his in the 80's.
