In the words of the dysfunctional Jerry Springer contestant, Social Distortion’s Mike Ness says, “You Don’t Know Me!” (Feel free to insert finger snap.)

That’s what the musician told Spinner during an interview.

“My writing and my stage stuff, that’s just one side of me,” Ness said. “There are so many others people don’t know — being a vegetarian, my spiritual beliefs. There are dimensions to anybody.”

Ness has recorded a PSA for vegetarianism for PETA, so it’s not like he’s hiding in the closet or anything.

Maybe he just needs to speak up a little more. Watch his “Meat’s Not Green” video below.

“Our wildlife, what is left of it, we’re going to lose if we don’t man up and step up and be responsible,” Ness says in the clip.

Mike Ness has recorded his PSA for vegetarianism with PETA.

Mike is the front man for the rock band Social Distortion and is making a name for himself in the alterna-country scene.

“The more I got educated about cruelty and inhumane treatment… It was really a no-brainer. No one would barbecue their family dog. How is a cow or a pig different or a chicken different? They’re just as much of a gentle animal as a dog or a cat.”

“I just feel stronger, faster, cleaner, healthier.”
