Interesting that Don’t Tread on Me (song) was a decently big hit for 311 - it reached #2 on Modern Rock Chart, yet shows up nowhere on the band’s top streams, in fact Whiskey & Wine from same album has more! What The?!
Happy 100 million to Beautiful Disaster, I love this song’s story from humble beginnings - lightly played on radio/MTV - never to fade into complete obscurity cus it’s actually a 🔥 song, got a bump from Guitar Hero along the way & here we are easily 311’s 2nd most streamed song
This second part of this @NickHexum solo project is fascinating to me. And as a man with two young daughters of his own, this song is of particular importance.
@joan8904 Hopefully this is a prophetic statement by you! I’m always seeing songs in movies and thinking this would have been perfect for 311; like good friends, Goldfinger, who were featured in Sonic 3 I just saw.

This woman, Belinda Quick, from Australia, wrote a nice review of Full Bloom, then got to interview Nick & SA recently when 311 played in Australia. Pretty cool.
One thing I believe really separates 311 most modern “rock” bands is the jazz element in their music.
My question to you is: what is 311’s most jazzy tune? (There is one right answer.)
@ESmith311 Calypso rock! Whoa that’s a new one to me. Just another category to sling 311 into, that’s about 10 categories now 😂 that’s why we love them!
