In the Bay Area punk rock pantheon, few bands loom as large as Rancid. Fewer still have legit South Bay cred. Though Rancid was born in Berkeley—an offshoot of Operation Ivy and incubated at the legendary Gilman—they found a kindred spirit and second guitarist in Campbell native Lars Frederiksen, who joined the band shortly before the massive success of Let’s Go and …And Out Come the Wolves. Rancid is joined by fellow punk royalty at this Alt 105.3-hosted show. SoCal-bred Pennywise rose high on the same wave that carried Sublime, The Offspring, Green Day and Bad Religion to alternative radio playlists all across the country.
