So this is pretty rad. Rancid front man Tim Armstrong did an improvised and pretty cool acoustic set at the Music 4 Cancer booth during this year’s Amnesia Rockfest. Apparently he just randomly walked across the street outside the Rockfest perimeter and jammed out a handful of classics with a little help from The Interrupters.
Check out the fan-filmed video below.
Add Rancid to My Radar

I was there
I passed as I was on my way to see bigwig with a friend and my fiancé and I honestly couldn’t believe it.
In fact I’m the only only one that recognized him.
It was darker at the time and gosh I wish I had stuck around till the end but the 2 other duffus with me went on so I left too

Wtf? That’s Tim Armstrong? It doesn’t look like him at all or sound like him.
I was at the Rockfest, unfortunately I missed this!
He wants to host the tonight show so bad.

That’s awesome! Saw in some comments that some dude was there for a minute then left cause his friends wanted to leave. Somebody would have to be dying for me to leave that lil set! And even then I might not leave!
Tim is the man
