HOLY FUCK!!!
What a sick concert. Crowd surfed twice, got drenched in water then had to stand outside in the freezing cold air waiting for a bus.
If anyone saw a drunk fucker in blue jeans and a brown collared shirt - that was ME!!!
Feedback peoples. I think it finished too early. Should've carried on till 4am!!!
Damn I wish I was a groupie. If only 'Lots of Watts' or 'Chameleon' were doing the lighting - I would've gotten backstage passes. Dang.
i went to the one at the riverstage (brisbane), it was awesome
i didnt like the supporting bands though, something corporate were probably the best of the lot, the disables and bodyjar didnt sound that good
yeah at our concert it only went till like 10.30, i thought it could have gone on for a while
and another thing, the offspring took AGES to get on stage, after bodyjar had finished there was a good 10-20 minute (not sure exactly) wait

Yeah, that pissed me off big time. Esp being way down the front in mosh having to contend with big fuckers trying to push past whilst some piss weak CD was playing.

I saw the OFFSPRING in 1995 at UCLA with Quicksand and the Vandals
haven;t been interested in them since.
their early stuff owned, their more recent stuff is total shit in my opinion, shame to see them go down that path, so did they play any early stuff in their concerts?

I think people just like to say that their new stuff is shit, without really listening to it.
It's a shame songs like "get a job", "pretty fly" etc bring down their image - when other tracks on Americana like "pay the man" are really fucking awesome.
meh.
I was actually a little bit disappointed by the set list: But "the kids aren't alright", "gone away" and "defy you" were all played and they just fucking rock!!!
i listened, and i hated!
get a job and pretty fly for a white guy are two of the worst songs around but the offspring album znai on the hombre ah correct me if im wrong cant be bothered getting the cd totally rules!

i've got all their cd's and you can definately hear a change between everything else and the last 1 and a half albums which seemed a bit more pop but still alright. that first album is the shit and i managed to download all the songs off the fan club cd u can't get in AUS :D
I've never owned an offspring CD or even an MP3, but I bought the americana DVD quite a while ago, and its fuckken sick. I love every song on it, and the skits and footage are pretty mad. The dirtbike/MTB action is a highlight and so is the MOTA song/footage. Bloody mad.
I still watch it.
