The Offspring are a punk rock band from Garden Grove, California. Led by founding member, lead vocalist and guitarist Dexter Holland since 1986, The Offspring have released 11 studio albums and sold over 40 million records globally. The band’s self-titled debut arrived in 1989, followed by 1992’s Ignition and 1994’s Smash. Behind breakout Mainstream Rock Airplay singles “Come Out and Play,” “Self Esteem” and “Gotta Get Away,” Smash went on to sell over 11 million records, earn six RIAA platinum certifications and set the record for the highest-selling album released by an independent label. Ixnay on the Hombre in 1997 notched The Offspring’s first No. 1 single on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart with “Gone Away,” while 1998’s Americana hit the band’s chart peak at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 on its way to netting five RIAA platinum certifications and three more Alternative Airplay Top 10 singles: “The Kids Aren’t Alright,” “Pretty Fly (For a White Guy)” and “Why Don’t You Get a Job?” The Offspring later topped the Alternative Airplay chart again with “Hit That” from 2003’s Splinter and “You're Gonna Go Far, Kid” from 2008’s Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace. The Offspring logged two more Mainstream Rock Airplay chart-toppers with “Coming for You” and the title track from 2021’s Let the Bad Times Roll.

It was excellent just like the last time I saw them,and can't wait to see them again.
Great concert! The Offspring were full of energy and humor. They played all the great songs. We had a blast and can't wait until they come back to Vancouver again.
Took my boys to this concert and they loved it! They actually wanted floor tickets but decided against it. They are only 14 & 16 so moshing and bodysurfing aren't on the menu.They loved the Snoopy song by lead singer too!
was totally impressed with the show. could have been at a larger venue
The show was excellent. Very entertaining. The guys had the crowd going the whole time. They played alot of songs from the new album, along with all their old hits. I sang along the entire show, my throat was sore for days!
I recieved the tickets from my kids for Father's Day. I am a huge Offspring fan. I invited my wife who listens to them too. Wow! I must say what a great present concert tickets were, my wife and I had an amazing time, the music sounded great, and the seats were awesome! I would definately come see them again!
The opening acts were ok. Street Dogs forgot they were in Edmonton but pumped up the crowd good. Shiney Toy Guns were a ball of energy too but did not fit the mold of a Offspring fan in my opinion(Offspring fan for 18 years), their style was not for me. Offspring was awesome! Loud ANd Clear from start to finish! I was front row and was very inpressed with them.
Was an Awesome show!!! Great vocals fr DEX,,, awesome sound !!!!
Incredible show, as always. tons of energy, great setlist
The show was really good. The floor got pretty crazy after the opening bands and was basically a circle pit the entire time, which was fun for a while but then got annoying when you wanted to watch the show. The band themselves rocked and even being older, did an amazing job and made there music come to life. Great show.
These guys are my all time favorite band and they put on a rocking show. The opening bands were great but when The Offspring came out they blew their openers away! They played their hits but they also played a few songs from their new album. Their were some unforgettable moments like their intermission and when Dexter Holland played "gone away" on the piano. It was truly the best concert I have ever seen.
Stood about 15 ft from stage on the floor. The band rocked, had the whole place in the palm of their hand.
The offspring's show was awesome, they did old songs, new songs. The only thing i would change is no prett fly.
Seeing the Offspring last month was a total Junior High School flash back - great set list, tons of fun, tons of beer. BUT, the for sure for sure highlight was STG. Amazing. So much energy. I would love to see them headline. As for the opening act to Shiny Toy Guns, something about bells or whatever - no thanks.
- The Agricom is a good venue for a show - The Beer was Cheaper than at Rexall Place - The Band Played an Extensive set playing mostly old songs that most of the crowd had undoubtedly wanted to hear more than some of their newer stuff. - The Crowd was energetic and excited to be there
I would recommend this show to anyone. Especially if you're a 90's grundge child like myself. They played good and there was good energy.
The concert was epic but a lil short, they only played for a little over an hr, and the openers were lame, they were "the bravery" and fake emo. Offspring played a lot of oldies so if you liked their newer stuff you were out of luck, but I loved it as they played all the songs I wanted them too.
I have seen some bands who just don't live up to their albums, and some bands who sound better. Offspring is a live act worth seeing.
For one of the legendary punk bands, with a tone of great songs to choose from and play, they fell short of the line. I don’t know about you but I showed up to Offspring to here them play their fast paced intense music that they are known for. I didn’t show up to listen to Dexter play the piano and stand around listening to the softer mellower crap, all the while yelling song titles of something that myself and 90% of the crowd wanted to hear. So choice of music, not the greatest. The other thing is that when shell out +60 bucks to see a band, I expect them to play for a decent amount of time. Sure they got up there and play 10 songs. The problem is that each of there songs averages out to be 3.5 minutes long. So the great solution to add time….. Throw in an intermission for 10 mins. Thanks chief, well worth the bucks. When I look back, the two opening bands had more stage time, which is awesome because that’s who I wanted to hear play (note the sarcasm). Here’s another thing, so Offspring requested that there be no smoking area and no re-admittance into the building. I don’t smoke so why should I care. Well all those people who have not had a smoke in 3 hours all decide that why not have one inside the building when the lights are down and the bands are playing. So that was very counter productive. I think the final insult to the whole gig was the sell out at the end where Offspring had sold out to a local bar to show up after the concert. That could explain why they wanted to get out so fast. Anyways on the positive side, the moshpit was great. I had a ton of fun, came out with a bunch of bruises and it is defiantly apparent that the hormones in food has affected the youth.
Sadly, me and my boyfriend thought Shiny Toy Guns were just as good as the main band (if not better). Offspring's performance was great, for the exception of the questionable piano song, that we thought took away from another of their popular hits that the audience would have appreciated much more. Overall, they had a good mix of their older hints and recent songs. They rocked! However, if not for the two cover bands, I would not rate the concert at 4 stars.
