Offspring – Battle Born – Terrible Things – at The Joint inside The Hard Rock Hotel – Las Vegas, NV

June 18, 2010

Offsping in Las VegasThe night started off with a local Las Vegas band, Battle Born –great to local band makes good! The first time I saw Battle Born play was over a year ago in small bar, now the local boys hit the big stage at The Joint. It's nice to follow a local band from the bar scene to the bigger venue and watch how far they have come. It was a very good choice to have them opening up for Offspring, from chord 1 to the end of the set they just destroyed the Joint. With this line up they had the crowd on their side from beginning to end. Watch out for these guys they, are moving on up.

Make sure to check them out on MySpace and you can listen to a few of their tunes and you'll see why they are about to explode in your living room. Good job guys. www.myspace.com/battlebornmusic

Up next was a band from Westchester, PA. called Terrible Things. With their style of Rock and Roll these three guys put on a very good show and got the crowd ready for Offspring. They are currently on tour doing a few dates with Offspring and then they are going to be on the Vans Warped Tour as well. Check’em out on myspace and see if they are in a town by you, it would be well worth your while to go see them. www.myspace.com/terriblethings

Now the band everyone was waiting for and believe me after Battle Born tore it up, Terrible Things followed them, everybody was ready for Offspring! As a photographer I was only able to take pictures during the first 3 songs then we were lead out of the venue –crazy huh. I must say if the rest of the gig was as good as the first 3 songs, they shredded the place. From opening band Battle Born to PA’s Terrible things, to the topper, Offspring there was no other place to be on Friday night than The Joint Inside the Hard Rock Hotel in sin city Las Vegas, what a perfect line-up. To quote Offspring, they definitely CAME OUT AND PLAYED!
