Dropping Daylight did a cover of Journey's Dont Stop Believing. it was pretty cool.

Spill Canvas sounded so good. i would've bought a cd but i was broke. I'm not too familiar but the last song they played was All Over You... they didnt play The Tide which was too bad.

Flobots. Wow, they whole entire ampitheater seemed to be up and getting into them. This band actually stands for something, which is kind of strange to come by now and they dont just bitch about the problems they encourage change and whatnot. Excellent show... and the fact they are from denver made it pretty cool too.

Dropkick Murpheys. They knew what was up. during kiss me i'm shitfaced Ken walked around in the crowd and shit. it was sweet.

Paramore- Sounded really good, Hayley is a DAMN good performer and you have to admit that whether you like the band's music or not. Josh didnt seem too happy for some reason but maybe he's always that way? idk. Set was:

Born For This
Thats What You Get
Here We Go Again
Fences
CrushCrushCrush
Let The Flames Begin
When It Rains
We Are Broken
Emergency
Pressure
For A Pessimist, I'm Pretty Optimistic
Misery Business

the offspring was like "whoa, i'm seeing the offspring" the whole time. i've wanted to see em for about 7 years now. i wish they played more songs off their new album, but o well. set was:

Bad Habbit
All I Want
Come Out And Play
Hammer Head
Gone Away
Have You Ever
Staring At The Sun
Gotta Get Away
Spare Me The Details
You're Gonna Go Far Kid
Why Don't You Get a Job
Americana
Can't Get Me Head Around You
Pretty Fly
The Kids Aren't Alright
-------------
Want You Bad
Self Esteem

it was awesome. i'd never seen them before and i really didnt know what they would play. I got into them during the Conspiracy Of One album so i was wanting to hear more from that too but it was all good.

DKM and The Offspring are two of my all time favorite punk bands, and Paramore is great. Would have loved to see this.

i thought it was a pretty good show. the lawn had horrible sound, which made it harder to get into the music, but overall it was still pretty good. i didn't like paramore very much but i loved the offspring and dropkick murphys. what was dropkick's setlist? i only remember them playing famous for nothing, captian kelly's kitchen, sunshine highway, and shipping up to boston (obviously i'm a newer fan of theirs).

Paramore not playing Pessimist? Bad call, and I guess they're still playing Emergency and Pressure, so those rumors can be put to rest.

just-in.

damn, what a set by The Offspring
I hope they tour a lot under the new album
loved em' since I was a little kid, but I've only seen them once, at Warped 2005

you know more than i did... i know they oppened with For Boston, somewhere they played State of Mass, and they last two songs were Kiss Me I'm Shitfaced, and Shipping up to Boston. Thats almost a full set, i think they played for about an hour. and i got some nachos during a bit of their set so they probably played Tessie during that time.

as for the sound, i somehow got ahold of 6th row tickets and it sounded really good there so im not sure what the deal is with that.

oopsi just forgot to put it in. they did play it between Pressure and Misery Business. its fixed now

So Offspring has also become one of these "Greatest hits + a few songs from the new album" bands. Bleh....

great offspring set, but I wish they would have played "Trust In You" and "Half-Truism" and maybe something old that wasn't a single like "Genocide" or "Way Down the Line"
