Lost Cause (CA) – 7″ (1981 High Velocity Records)
Before there ever was a Lost Cause from Chicago, there was one from California who formed in the early 1980s. They put out one 7″ and one LP before they disbanded. Quite awhile back, original guitarist Steve Young contacted me and ended up sending me a history of the band. I fell out of touch with him since though, and never got the rest of the story. Here is what he sent me.
Feb. 1981. Orange, California. The Big O skatepark.
Five young punks, two age 14 two age 16 one age 18, decide to form a punk band. Upon hearing this, local skate pro Duane Peters, now of U.S. Bombs fame, says “You should call yourselves Lost Cause”, obviously meaning it as a jab or put-down. They love the name and a band is born.May 19 1981. Costa Mesa, California. The Cuckoos Nest.
Lost Cause play their first show, a mere three months after forming. The band is well-received by audience and club management. They are asked to return on the 29th of May to open for TSOL. The show is a tremendous success and Lost Cause is booked every other Saturday night at the Cuckoos Nest playing with such names as FEAR, The Circle Jerks, Agent Orange, etc.July 1981. Anaheim, California. Chateau East Recording
Lost Cause record six songs on 8-track. Four of these songs, Born Dead, No Justice, American Hero, and Senior Citizen are released on a 7″ EP by High Velocity Records. The band goes the extra mile and pays twice the cost to have ALL pressings done in RED VINYL. The records sell quickly, prompting interest from numerous industry snakes.New Year’s Eve 1981. Santa Ana, CA. Broadway Theater
Verbal Abuse, Lost Cause, China White, Social Distortion, TSOL. The fury of the event peaks during Social Distortion’s set and the riot police storm the building. Violence and Anarchy. The venue is destroyed.March 1982. San Francisco, CA
Lost Cause singer Johnny Ernst is replaced by Ron McCamey (a story in itself). Lost Cause and Social Distortion combine forces and tour to San Francisco. They play the Broadway Theater with The Lewd. Upon returning home to Orange, Lost Cause immediately enters the studio and records the album Forgotten Corners.Next time……
the Return of Johnny Ernst
More Violence and Mayhem
Drugs, Booze, Gray Bar Hotel
Unfortunately, the email address I have for him is no longer valid as I recently tried to contact him to get the rest of the story.
As always, if you have any information to add or you were in the band please get in touch.

I just stumbled upon this site…I was the 14 year old and I’m glad someone remembers some of that stuff. My 13 year old son and I have a current band called CRAIC HAUS out gigging now and we do some old LOST CAUSE songs. Steve is popping up once in a while with his band LOS PISTOLEROS. GRAND THEFT AUDIO out of Glendale is trying to piece together a Lost Cause retrospective. To check out CRAIC HAUS look up http:www.myspace.com/craichaus . Hope any of this is of intrest!

Los Pistoleros can be contacted and downloaded at sinforsale.com
March 24th, 2006 at 8:01 pm
Funny to run across you guys on the internet today. Sproing you’ve been kicking around that name (Los Pistoleros) forever. It is a good name.
March 25th, 2006 at 12:31 pm
to the guys that were in lost cause,
have you ever thought of releasing all the lost stuff on a cd? what about a live dvd with old footage? i love all the songs that you guys released!
thanks.
March 28th, 2006 at 4:26 pm
I’m in the process of doing a compilation CD right now. I don’t know if there is any video footage out there. I do know there is some good still photos for CD packaging. There is also a live radio broacast from San Francisco. It was done by one of the local stations there. I have talked to people that have heard it; but I have not. They say it sounds great. Thanks for the interest and the good words.
March 28th, 2006 at 4:49 pm
awesome! im from san clemente, ca and my older brother would tell how good you guys were live. i love the 7″ and the LP. i know alot of people would buy the lost cause collection.
thanks.
March 31st, 2006 at 7:17 pm
Ahh yes. My old stomping ground. I lived there from 1980 to 1989. What is your brothers name? We used to love to play in S.C. Kerry Martinez from Shattered Faith/U.S. Bombs used to hang out down there a lot too, and some of the guys from Convicted. Ask your brother if he remembers Din (a great local S.C. band) They had a great studio there. They were on the same record label as Lost Cause. They played opening slot for Pil and New Order in Los Angeles and San Diego in 1984 or ‘85 all on one bill.
April 5th, 2006 at 12:21 am
Man, its good to see this stuff. I went to ElMo with the boyz. Use to surf with Willy Z, Cass R, and Bill and Jim. Is Willy still around? I seen the gig’s at the Nest and was at the New Years riot in Santa Ana. Fence hopping at Big O w/ Peters, CB and the crew. I’d love to get in contact with Willy and anyone from the ElMo punk/surf crew.
April 12th, 2006 at 10:22 am
Willi lives in Anaheim with his wife & 2 kids. He still surfs. We surf down in San Clememte all the time & a lot of Baja Norte trips. Steve Young is in jail. Scott Mitchell lives in Washington state with his wife. I’ll tell Willi to get in contact with you through this site. Haven’t seen Bill or Jim in ages. Last time I saw Jim he was a major drug addict. Bill was doing fine (had a hot girlfriend) last time I saw him.
May 8th, 2006 at 12:51 pm
Thats right. Bill and Jim Wright, I remember in 1981 I called Jim a “fat ass” because he said I was a poser. He would chase me with his red beach cruiser almost everyday after school.
Then in 82 I moved to fountain valley and started hanging out with Kerry Martinez at his mom’s house lots of fun times Chuck Briggs with his van Discords,SF,turmoil and other bands haning out and playing at Kerry’s.
I didn’t see Jim wright again until early 1985 at a party in HB he lost lots of weight (he was skinny)and was really nice and kept trying to get me to quit heroin even though it seemed he was coked out of his mind.That was the last time I saw him or any of the others except Kerry.
Big-O is a storage building now
Anyone remember Carl Malin aka Limey from Orange high?
May 8th, 2006 at 1:57 pm
Oops Limey went to Villa park not OHS. He always wore a red beret.
May 23rd, 2006 at 12:18 am
Freddy kicked fucking ass in the big pool and the keyhole. I always respected him even though some dumb asses burned a cross on his lawn. People sucked then and now!
July 24th, 2007 at 2:38 pm
I am so glad I came across this site! I am friends with a member if Din and I am desperate to find some of their old recordings. My friend does not have them any more and has done some searching but to success. Can ANYONE help me find their albums? It would be a great gift for him! Thanks (PS I too grew up in So Cal OC area and had some incredible times with the punk era. Anyone remeber Tex and the Horse Heads or going to gigs at Fenders Ballroom??)
July 27th, 2007 at 2:34 pm
OMG! I used to hang out in Danny Oberbecks garage and watch these guys practice (when Johnny was sober enough to)And Big O and Cuckoos nest !!!That was a lifetime ago. On a whim I googled Danny Oberbeck and found this site.
Can’t get the song to play though.

January 3rd, 2008 at 6:13 pm
I miss all the drawings Danny would do, I still have a little folder with some in them! The good old days! Anyone know what happened to Joe Selway and his crowd?
January 4th, 2008 at 2:37 pm
Ok, but what about Public Humiliation! Ha ha ha!
February 6th, 2008 at 6:45 pm
Last time I saw Joe Selway was probably 1992 or ‘93 at a Lost Cause reunion party at Danny Oberbeck’s house. He was married and living in Hollywood. He was still hanging out with Mike Horton. Mike lives up there also.
February 6th, 2008 at 6:59 pm
Cat,
You can get a copy of Din “Great Tradition” at http://www.lastvestige.com. They are located in Albany, New York.
August 29th, 2008 at 1:36 am
About 20 years ago I found a Lost Cause original poster for a party at a thrift store. Its the craziest party invitation with pasted pictures (original copy) for a party in San Clemente. It also says ” no hippy dirt merchants” kind of a crack up.
October 24th, 2008 at 1:22 am
I am tripping out and not like in the eightys”. I was always curious what happened to Willie Zarth. I went to Portola, oOrange and Elmo. I had a law enforcement clsss with Steve and Willie I think haha. I went to my 25 year reunion at both high schools and it said that Willie past away. I was upset and asked but no knew anything. That would be geat if it was not true?? I picked up Lost causes album with Ron as singer at the old record trading center in orange. I miss that store. Its possible Viynl solution in Huntington may get a couple from time to time. I remember limy, wasn’t he into Mod. Iremember a party at Jack christies apartment by Elmo and there was a fight between punks and his crew I think. He is that Kurt Bentley? Hey Ron, Robbie out
November 6th, 2008 at 7:36 pm
Does any one remember me?
May 8th, 2009 at 4:20 pm
Hey all,
( ) But if you want to check out Willi go to his face book and find him there.
I went to OHS and yes Willi is still alive andkickin’. I have him on facebooks. I always had wondered what happened to his band, couldnt think of the name, til he messaged me back and told me, then it was like oh duh thats right. All the memories deja vu. I used to have a major crush on Mike Horton (dont think he ever knew, never would give me the time of day
June 10th, 2009 at 11:23 pm
I went to OHS 82-84 I used to hang with billy fiskey, joe selway, farley gardner, sunny branch, Bruce Linderman etc. Remember ron shultz(spike), Vince,jason,and diane aeriola, Steve shears, tim christ, limey, terry schmits(R.I.P.), Robbie gross(R.I.P.), Steve Stone(R.I.P.), David Burns(buns), Loach, Mikey val(of dirthill gang), Hugh or hugo of ELMO, Chris and billy dye, hodgey, wright bros., anderson bros., new years TSOL/lost cause/ riot Broadway theater, canceled TSOL show at Villa park High, Danny oberbeck’s wooden shoes, Hagen’s dragon tats and brown duster, i guess thats it for now. thank you
June 22nd, 2009 at 11:22 am
Wow, I haven’t heard those names in decades. I remember David Burns(I think he went to Yorba jr. high) telling me that “punk is dead” and was about to fade away back in late 81 or early 82. Diana Aeriola talking me out of getting a mohawk around the same time. I also remember when Billy Hagen wore “Dogtown” shirts then cut his hair and how cool I thought he was when he dyed it black in 1980. I didn’t care for Loach or Nimrod so much can’t remember why. Police and gaurdian angels at the broadway and TSOL saying they were a folk band then all the punks show up and watching the equipment get stuffed back into the VW square back. Etc etc. Who remembers Phylis aka Syphilis,Jeff Rocks or Jason Trembley? or the Pshyco Bud crowd in Garden Grove?
July 4th, 2009 at 2:16 am
I was there. The wholetime. I led the band. I wrote the songs. I hired and fired people. These young kids thought they were hot shit and could achieve massive success without me. Ain’t done shit than I can tell. I’ve gone solo and have one International recording, containing a song at #4 on the punk charts lasting longer than any Lost Cause singer besides Rat, combinded!
I Am Lost Cause and for anyone to disagree is completely unfathomable. Lost failed misurably without me. We could still be making new music, but only The Oberbecks and The Rat like me. “chump-change band implodes over greed”Not Me
Next up, the rise and demise of Los Pistoleros and birth of my current group “Juan Corona”

Ron might have been in the band 6months and he cried the whole time.

HELLO MR. LOST CAUSE. Lost Cause was doomed from the first two chords…even a third chord couldn’t save us! Hope all is well in Florida. Talk to you soon.
-Love,
your OLD (and I do mean OLD) friend ( And songwriting partner, you greedy fuck)

October 1st, 2009 at 10:02 pm
Crazy…
Havent heard those names in quite some time!
Still have the Lost Cause 45 on the red vinyl too!
I went to Santiago then Elmo for a year before I moved away.
Knew Johnny Ernst from school and the Cuckoos Nest as well as Steve Stone.
Knew Big Hugh too.
Some of my crew were ( big orange Jeep ) Al
Kelly and Shaun Hyde
Pedro
Tim Harper
Sean Herrington
Steve Preston of A.I.A.
Mark Haggard and his sister Manon (sp)? who was dating one of the old Germs crew I believe
Freddy Desoto, Janice, Scott, DP, Carabeth Burnside and the Hirsch Bros. from the Big O.
I skated Big O nearly everyday while it was open and went to every show I could get myself a ride to.
Not sure if any of those guys would remember me, but I sure remember them!
Those guys were like my heros at the park, still are.
Still skate pools all the time, race motorcycles and tattoo for a living.
Cool to see that some of you guys made it out, lots of us did not….
Rad times back then, and still are.
November 2nd, 2009 at 1:08 pm
I have to agree with Steve Young, he may have had more talent and song writing skills, but Jhonny was a caged panther back then, Willie and Scott sold the look. Steve you looked like a geek. I was the little Punker with the band who lived over the Hill from Danny, Had a studio in my garage, went to the shows, skated the parks hung with everyone.. blah blah blah..10 million years ago.
November 14th, 2009 at 2:14 am
Hi Bruce
November 14th, 2009 at 2:19 am
I have the red vinyl plus two other tracks recorded from that session and the demo for the album with Kenny Timmering singing. All very good quality on one CD.
November 14th, 2009 at 10:21 pm
Rick Davies…? Name is familiar…give me a clue or a pic?
Is my name familiar? LOL
Best wishes~
Rhea
November 14th, 2009 at 10:33 pm
Hey, Bruce! I don’t think so.
If you think you were cooler than any of the guys in Lost Cause, you are way off the mark my friend. That’s a silly comparison! haha!
Each of them had, “it”…they worked it, they were each & all awesome in their own ways. They were a great OC band.
I hung out with them a lot… I know, and still know….
Steve was no Geek! He was Hot ;P …they all were!
November 15th, 2009 at 12:59 am
Rrick Davis…spelling is correct. He promoted the Future Shock concert at Santa Ana Stadium. He helped foot the bill for ALL expenses the Cause required…..kept ME in Smirnoff blue-label!!!! He worked closely with Kenny Kaine, our manager. Rrick was the investor,….and he could dig it!!!
November 15th, 2009 at 7:17 pm
FYI – Limey (Carl) passed away about 5 years ago.
Love & miss you Limey! RIP
November 15th, 2009 at 10:33 pm
Ha, Lost Cause was nothing without me making flyers and hanging at all the shows and old haunts, hahaha…..Good to see some familiar names here. Skating again and life is great….thanx Steve…
November 21st, 2009 at 10:40 pm
Hey Steve will make sure to go to your show if you ever get out here…Wow, Kenny Kane and Future Shock that was a fun day.
Rhea, we don’t want to bring up some old things,that should be left in our head…wink,wink.
November 24th, 2009 at 1:39 pm
I decided to write a brief summation to illustrate a profound point regarding the PR scene and those who were instrumental in creating anarchy,violence and chaos in O.C. First and foremost, Robbie Gross and Quentin Gallian were my most influential best friends. Robbie and I had grown up together. He had always been avante garde in the sense of substance as was Quentin. When the scene emerged in the early eighties we were 12 years of age. Skated the Big O every day. Robbie’s Gram would drop us off a block away from the Nest for gigs. Although we always indulged in girls and the bottle, I despised the system simply because Crass was my perception of punk. Yes, we despised the faggot long hair hippy woodstock swine who wore flairs. Speaking for Robbie, Quentin , and myself, we apologize for nothing we have ever done regarding our running amuck and angst. After the unfortunate demise of Robbie, and Quentin ten years later, I realized how much I hated everyone who had adversely influenced them over the years. In essence, the PR scene had it’s time and place but nonsensical in the fact that there were far to many friends and aquantances who took a dive far to soon in life. As a conservative and capitalist now, I find Life to be of profound substance. And I am still in O.C. Fortunately, many of you are still here who began in the scene. Other’s are not. The Cramps were and always will be the coolest band. Lux Interior was always right musically and lyrically when he stated “People Ain’t No Good”. Rest in Peace Lux, and give my love and angst to Robbie and Quentin.
November 27th, 2009 at 6:34 pm

February 4th, 2010 at 12:14 pm
Steve Young is completely dillusional and an alcoholic smack junkie. Not to mention the fact he is a liar and a thief. He’s basically just scum. The state of Florida is not big enough for his ego or his bullshit. If you believe anything that comes out of Steve Young’s mouth you’re an idiot.
February 4th, 2010 at 9:37 pm
All the love that is speaded on this site is just to muchfor me hehe
February 11th, 2010 at 12:18 am
someone needs to animate this thread and put it on youtube. I haven’t laughed this hard since Chris Barkley Shoved Steve Stone (flying backwards spread eagle holding his bass) off the stage of the CUCKOOS NEST!!!
GOOD TIMES
HAPPY 2010
-Danny Oberbeck
February 11th, 2010 at 3:08 pm
Man I love this shit! You simply cannot convey humor in cyberspace (unless you’re Danny Oberbeck). For the hundredth time, Danny it went down like this.
Political Crap finished their set and Stoner walks up holding his bass in it’s soft-shell case and says to Barkley “So who were you guys tonight? Black Flag or the Circle Jerks?” at which point a firmly shoved open hand on the young boy sent him over the monitor, bass flying out of it’s case…..and you know the rest
Classic. Now THOSE were the days
February 11th, 2010 at 4:13 pm
you pushed my boy friend down-you BIG meanie hehe-i prob wouldnt have ever gone out with him if i saw that lol-does anyone have a good pic of dave and steve, My gf is sending me one of my photo albums but Daves broher prob has the last pics of all of us 2geather

Mwa hahahahaha! So many names long forgotten, written here! What a trip! And Steve still with the BIGGEST Ego! Danny with the best disposition. No surprise. ….All this has been buried way down in my brain for so long. It hurts to try to remember! Oh, but wait… I just had a memory of the 1st time I met Danny. (I think Kim was there, too). He had red, white, and blue hair, a flag shirt, jeans, and red, white, and blue bowling shoes on. ..In the parking lot of … Oh hell, what’s the name of the skate rink next to Big O? Quite the fashion statement… … Does anyone remember Spike? Where is he? I vaguely remember some good LC parties at his place.

Oi!,Steve how are you ya big ol” SMACK JUNKIE! I got a good laugh reading that comment sent in from Ron Mc.That wouldnt be the same Ron that failed so miserably trying to fill Johnny’s creepers would it?Everybody who knows anything about O.C. punk rock knows that the Lost Cause glory days ended the day Johnny left the band.It takes sheer genius for somebody to DIS you & incorrectly spell the very first putdown he tried!!!(dillusional) I think he was shooting for (delusional).I think dillusional defined is someone who cant tell the difference between a pickle & a cucumber. And while I’m on the subject putting the word smack in front of the word junkie is a bit redundant.It’s like putting the word speed in front of tweaker! So I geuss youre also a booze alcoholic to boot! Keep yer chin up mate cuz in this instance shooting smack is a far more honorable pastime then talking it! OH YEAH!! & I geuss Ron Mc,Ron Anger,Ranger Danger,Ronald McDonald or whatever the fuck he’s calling himself considers anyone including me an idiot for believing any word that comes out of your mouth! I know differently because although youve struggled with the truth at times we all have mate! And you have been brutally honest with me when it counted most & other so-called friends did nothing more then take turns throwing me under the bus. And I THANK you for that.Its par for the course that he failed to mention the FACT that you are without argument one of the five best guitarists to come out of the O.C. punk scene. Can you say? “green with envy” or “jealousy” DangerDan can! His whole comment reverberated with it. Anyway Ive wasted to much time on this hack. Dont do a thing to curb your ego its essential for a lead guitarist! and please note that there is 3 prerequisites for playing in Piss&Blood.#1 piss has to come out of your vagina #2 blood has to flow from your vains & #3 shit needs to spew from your big mouth!!!! Cheers Steve ………………………………………………….P.S You cant spell at a 3rd grade level or better. It intimidates Rod Angler! I think the quickest way to make Piss&Blood go away is to stem the flow with a tampon!!!!

Oooh, and did you and Steve cry together as you held each other tight throughout the night? You and Steve should keep your immature butt love life private.
