07/06/05 Long Beach…..or the “LBC“ as it‘s known to it‘s friends, was another super-freak-out as far as our friends and family comming to the show…...we played at 4:00 and the weather was just what we had been missing…..nice. The songs of the day were L.A.P.D. and It‘ll Be Along Time…..Lot‘s of singing and jumping around. You guys were great out there, giving us a warm welcome home. Thanks! It was great having all our “peeps“ on stage with us even though it was so packed X-13 was having trouble maneuvering through the masses.San Francisco. What a crazy morning. We all started out in Southern California and found out at 9:30 we were to play at 12:50 in S.F. So we got moving. After landing at SFO at 11:45 we got in a car and then got lost. After many wrong turns and nervous watch checks we got on the right road and into traffic, and decided with 8 minutes left we should walk. So there we were …the Offspring walking up the street to get to the Warped Tour….We made it to the stage only one minute late (they are very prompt here at the Warped Tour..)..Big props to our man Dan for keeping his cool while we barely made it. Oh yeah, the show was rad too, it seemed like there were tons more people today on the grounds and we were right on the water too which made for nice nice nice! So thanks.
Ventura: today we play at 6 or so and for all the “hot as the sun” days this one was freezing! We played right after the Dropkick Murphys…and that‘s a tough act to follow! Those guys are so great and get the crowd so fired up, and a great bunch of guys too. So we came, we played, and then got on the bus to Fresno…..I know it‘s exciting, just try and contain yourselves…..
Fresno on the 4th of July. All right! It was blazing hot today and everybody on the stage and in front of it was feeling the sun‘s power as we played at 2:30…Another fun show with a stage dive in the set….then we all went home for a day off….first one in a while!
Pomona today and it‘s also the first day of the Myspace signings…...These are cool because we get to say hey to a few hundred people in a day and then go do the show….We played Elders today which I don‘t think has been played live in a very long time….It was pretty rad and the people who knew it were stoked! Said goodbye again to friends and family and headed north to Sacremento…
