Right now I'm listening to songs from Pennywise's "Unknown Road" album. I was really disappointed when they didn't play anything from it on their reunion tour, because it really was one of the formative punk albums for me. It was the step up from Green Day, The Offspring and other corporate bands with the label punk*. To this day, Unknown Road is still the only Pennywise album I can really listen to in its entirety. The other albums aren't bad, but by the time I listened to them, I was listening to another band named Bad Religion, who to me, are far superior.
Anyway, enough with the waffle, there actually is a point I'm looking to raise here. I looked up the year in which Unknown Road was released, in the case that Pennywise do a set where they play it in its entirety as an anniversary. It was released in 1993.
FUCK! Are you kidding me? How did they miss that opportunity? Not only did they not have a 20th anniversary gig for it, but they didn't play a single song? Is it really that obscure? Surely not... it's such a great album.
Anyway, that's my little rant over.
*Please note, I still like both of those bands. But I can't deny that they're mainstream as hell.
