Group Leader:

Operation Ivy started off in the California Bay Area (Near Berkely) in and around '87. Lint and Matt who were in a band called Basic Radio and Jesse who was in S.A.G. (among many other bands) got together with Dave and started playing. When the band picked up they started playing at the popular Gilman Street Club, where many other popular bands including Green Day got their start. They got signed with Lookout Records and released there first album. As their popularity increased and they released new albums, they continued to grow. Finally, cries of "Sell Out" were heard from fans, and the pressure caused the breakup of the band. To hear more about this breakup checkout the lyrics to the Rancid song "Journey To The End Of The East Bay", it is all about Operation Ivy...
