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.
Hailing from Lincoln, UK Nieviem is a newer skate punk band that has been tearing it up for a little over a year. Steadily releasing new songs, live recordings, and EPs, the band continues the trend with their second EP The Hope Is There. The EP is fast and heavy, borrowing from hardcore but still strongly entrenched in 90's skate punk. If that sounds up your alley, then give it a listen here.
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

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!
