This was punk rock at its absolute finest. California legends Pennywise and Circle Jerks absolutely destroyed House of Blues Anaheim in a night that reminded everyone why these bands are punk royalty. DFL opened the evening with raw energy that got the pit moving early. H2O followed with their hardcore-influenced punk that had the crowd going absolutely mental. Then Circle Jerks took the stage and Keith Morris proved he's still one of the best frontmen in punk history, tearing through classics that had the entire venue erupting. When Pennywise finally hit the stage, it was pure chaos. Jim Lindberg commanded the room with decades of punk mastery, and the band unleashed track after track of Southern California punk perfection. The energy was absolutely insane - this was the kind of show that reminds you why punk will never die. Four bands, all bringing their A-game, all proving that real punk rock is alive and thriving in 2026.
