[@MaxHohenstaufen]

I wish I could go back to the 90's for a year. It was so weird and tough but also so awsome. Everytime I watch a concert from that era I feel that indescribable 90's vibe again. I know there was a vibe, I remember, so it's not just nostalgia bc I felt it back then. I don't know if it's smartphones or something (probably not the only thing, but it certainly has an impact), or what happened to music, or to youth these last 20 years, but no matter how hard you look for, you just don't see that *vibe* anymore. Anyone else feels that way? Does it even make any sense?

[@elliotgregory3356]

Makes perfect sense. I agree 💯. We had a good mix of technology but not too much. People actually communicated and compared to how horrible it is today.... I was 26 in 99 and I'd return now if I could.

[@therealdavidmac]

Yes same exact reason I’m watching this right now.

[@haunter_1845]

It was the attitude era. Nothing cool had anything to do with stuff online and we were the last of it. It was a blink of an eye then everything went from disc-mans to rich kids with early I-phones and along with it came the next generation.

[@joojoojeejee6058]

The late 90s were "weird" in the way that cell-phones were already very common in Europe, but not really in the US. ;) Americans had their "pagers" and what not. Pay phones. While Europeans were already texting with cell phones...

Anyone who would ever, EVER claim that the OFFSPRING is shit, not good or sucks, literally needs to go get their head checked. They've been a constant great band since they started out, not changing up who they are for anyone or anything, not selling out, but continuing and constantly making great music for us fans. Thank you for being your amazing selves everyone, peace and much love sent from Ontario, Canada. P.S. the Offspring are LEGENDS, CULT CLASSICS, PURE AND ULTRA ICONS. Thank you for being awesome OFFSPRING.
