Gaborno, who also performed with popular bands Manic Hispanic and Santos Y Sinners, passed away on January 4 after a courageously waged battle with liver cancer, leaving generations of the OC punk community heartbroken at the loss of their revered leader and friend. Coakley's feature documentary film is a humble and honest look at how the Cadillac Tramps - five young men who found each other in sobriety, and created a lasting musical legacy that influenced some of indie rock's biggest bands - overcame many ghosts of the past to support their ailing lead singer as he fought against the ravages of Hepatitis C. While the 1990's were the "Golden Age" of the Orange County California music scene, with bands like The Offspring, No Doubt, Sugar Ray, and Social Distortion blowing up the mainstream, the undisputed king's of that scene were falling apart, as The Cadillac Tramps grappled with infighting, addiction, frustration, and dysfunction tearing the members apart at the peak of their success. As evidenced by the journey captured by Life on the Edge, some bonds prove too strong to remain broken for long.
