Two of the best bands in the world played in Pomona on Sunday night. OFF! supported the Descendents. I always consider myself fortunate to score a photo pass for any show, but especially for shows like this.\u00a0 I’d like to take this opportunity to thank the people responsible for getting me hooked up with the pass … THANKS DOODS! I’ve already posted my OFF! photos HERE<\/a>\u00a0if you’d like to check them out.<\/p>\n

I’m not a writer, but for some reason I always feel the need to summarize the show … Not really “review” it, but at least say something about it. With my limited vocabulary (and age approaching 50) I start feeling funny over using the terms RAD and AWESOME, but those are the terms that best describe this show. I had a smile on my face the entire time. The Descendents were as good or better than ever. That is one solid rock outfit right there. If you were there and didn’t have your face burnt off by the blast furnace that was the ‘Dents, don’t ever talk to me again … And definitely do not suggest any music to me … Your opinion no longer holds any weight. The DESCENDENTS RULE!<\/p>\n

On this first image, I would like to quote one of the best rock photographers in the world, Bob Gruen, by saying, focus is overrated (or something like that).<\/p>\n

It’s not a set of Descendents photos without one of Stephen’s guitar face … This guy rules!<\/p>\n
