No nazi shit. No homophobic shit. No transphobic shit. No sexist shit.

Scene discussions are fine, but don’t flex about what you do in the pit. Also don’t say “the pit” like it’s an important thing. Please.

So me and my old man are taking my 4 yr old Lil sister to see a circle jerks/descendents/adolescents show pretty soon.

I'm most looking forward to seeing the adolescents set.

I grew up on punk. Thanks to my father. The first show he took me to was circle jerks when I was about 13 or so. We're just passing the gift along I guess. (:

That's great, if she wants to go, take her along. I've seen a lot of people bring their kids and younger siblings out to shows. At 4 years old, she might not have a clue what's going on, but will probably have fun if she sees you are. Do some dancing and wear her out. Might want to keep her out of the pit til she's a little older though:)

She loves shows. It will not be her first. Just my first with her.

Hell I'm too old, or at least too beaten, now for slam dancing, but I'm probably gona give it a go just cause I haven't been to a proper show for it in a minute. Looking forward to it. I'm officially the older guy with ear plugs n shit. Damn.

That's awesome. Hopefully she'll follow suit! I'm looking forward to this tour also, I've yet to see Circle Jerks and Adolescents.

The show was really fun! I'm sore af today. I haven't danced like that in a WHILE! My dad even joined in for 2 whole sets almost. Lol.

It was a really cool experience cause my first show was the circle jerks and my dad had to keep an eye on me in the pit, and now I'm doing the same for him.

My sister had fun, but she's a little kid yknow she wanted to go home after a certain point lol /:

But she got to hang out with the guys from adolescents and got some free merch and even pics with them lol

I never got into the descendents too much but their set was really really good.

Classic So Cal punk rock lineup. Too bad The Adolescents are only Tony still wearing a mask nowadays. The Radolescents are the best version to see, but still a cool show.
