Offspring concerts you've attended/going to attend

[fuck-authority]

just interested to know where, when and what shows people have seen them at

i saw them at soundwave in melbourne in febuary, was an amazing show when they played and i should be seeing them whenever the tour for rise and fall, rage and grace comes to melbourne

[Rag Doll]

Moved this over to Tour Talk =)

I saw them in December 2000 two nights in a row. Once in Camden, NJ and the next night in NYC. Saw them again in June 2004 in NYC. Will see them again in NYC whenever they come back here...and maybe somewhere in Jersey, if they play here...

I tried to collect the shows I've been to recently by looking over the tour archive I know I had done so before but I can't seem to find the text file, it's prolly on an archived dvd somewhere. Plus I might've forgotten a few, but I'd just be accused of bragging anyway :)

Am going to Bumbershoot in Seattle.
I want to go sooo bad.

[Betty]

What's holding you back?

Yeah... you could totally do it. You don't even need to drive. Just take the Clipper from downtown Victoria to downtown Seattle.

I remember when I went to my first show in Niagara Falls. I bought a ticket online. I did NOT know how the hell I was going to get to Niagara Falls, NY. My plan was to take the greyhound from Guelph, ON, to the border and then WALK across the border and to the venue, regardless of how far it was. And then I'd wander around all night, or maybe stay in a coffee shop, and then somehow catch a greyhound back in the morning. Luckily I got hooked up with a ride cause once I got to Niagara Falls and the area where the venue was, I realized that it was extremely scary. And for my first Social D. show I got a ride home from Toronto with a random dude from a message board. Not like, this forum BBS random, but I have-no-idea-who-this-guy-is random. It worked out really well though! I did such sketchy things back then for music. Still would, probably.

[Ryder1234]

Well, my parents. If it werent for the, I'd be there for sure. Also a money issue. I dont have a job (well, technically I do, but not full time til about September), and my parents wont pay for it.

Milan, Italy - 2004
Amsterdam, the Netherlands - 2004
Lowlands, the Netherlands - 2004
Cologne, Germany - 2005
Paris, France - 2008

I'm planning to see them quite a few times when they tour Europe. I must beat Oxygene.

Once I flew to the states to see them in a row as many times as you saw them together ;)

I did find the text file, but it's compressed on a DVD, I must first decompress and find it blah blah blah, but I'll post it sooner or later.

Mike 911 saw them way more tho, 'cause he went and saw them like everyday on warped fora month.

[syyr*boi]

Once they were in Istanbul Turkey. It was a rock fest supported by Coca Cola in 2005.
That day and the moments the offspring played on stage are the greatest moments of my life sofar...
these moment were the moments which I'll never forget all my life.
I whished If they could ever come to Turkey again...
I believe they will make it:)...
and I almost forgot (I cant believe myself how could I ever forgot this) to say: this concert was the first the offspring concert of my life and it was on my BİRTHDAY :D. this was also the greatest birth day present I've got sofar:D
I thank the offspring for this present (even if they were unaware of this but its ok:))

I am 28. And yeah, am going to see them next week at Virgin Mobile.

With me! But I only did three.

[jacknife737]

The Toronto/Barrie stop of the 05 Warped Tour.
-A short, but sweet set; they even played Session!

And i'll be checking them out again whenever they decide to play a Toronto show for the RAFRAG tour.

My only time seeing The Offspring was at the Pier in San Francisco on my 16th birthday, July 2, 2005. I'm looking forward to seeing them again soon, I hope they'll get to come to The Warfield in San Francisco or the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View.

This probably isn't a complete list, I just didn't have time to copy that huge ass file and decompress it and find my text file.. but I will :)

It's not very impressive compared to people who had the chance to follow them around in North America tho. As you can see I did four dates there, but I enjoy the European shows more, and seeing as how they are closer, I'm probably never going to see them like a million times... :(

I'll edit it once I check out the text file

Only for Tijs.. 'cause him and Jesus were so cool in France :)

Cheers!

[Tijs]

Impressive list! Really. Is it expensive to follow them around for a few days?

[Oxygene]

Not really.
I had relatives in DC I stayed with them a few days before the gig there. The next day I took a train up to Philly where I met up with Mike 911 and this hot chick named Britanny Nitro7755 I think her name was... we went to see the band, and we crashed at her place. The next day she and her dad were cool enough to drive us up to New York to the venue. There I met with some Hungarian guys who gave Mike and myself a place to crash and I took a few of them to the show.

I paid like 400 euros for BP - DC return NY - BP plane tix. So all I had to do was take the subway to the airport and I was fine.

It wasn't that bad.

Touring usually isn't routed that consistently in Europe tho.. Although I'd love to do more dates, but now because of work I have time constraints. But I still like to take other people who are fans, who help me get somewhere or shit like that.
I had a guy named Britpunk when I went to the Garage show in London from the old mailing list / irc etc..

It's all happy happy joy joy :)

Cory Hammer was in Woodstock 99 we were gonna meet but it fell through 'cause no cell phone coverage. That sucked :( I met him later anyway in texas tho.

[Camilamazed]

I'm looking forward to doing that since I got here. But there's no way the bitches come to the east coast.

I hope they look at us after Virgin Mobile.
