Is Offspring considered 'straight edge'?
Someone I know said he considers 'The Offspring' to be 'straight edge'
Whats the story with that? |
I would think that any band with members that guzzle beer would probably not be considered straight edge, so no. Your friend is nuts.
|
lol thats what I was thinking.
Hes sayin crap like 'its in their message!' whatever, thank you. |
I'd say the Offspring are about as straight edge as Cannibal Corpse is Christian.

maybe he confused "straight edge" with "became shitty mainstream"

Sounded like left over tracks and b-sides to me. There are a couple decent ones on there but they are few. Never did get Splinter. |
Does straight edge mean lame? :confused:

Couldn't find any recent threads about the band and this seemed the closest to general info I could find. Just scored tickets to the OC Fairgrounds show in July for Offspring with The Adolescents opening up of them. The Pacific Amphitheater is a great venue.

The Adolescents>>>The Offspring

Re: Is Offspring considered 'straight edge'?
The whole "straight edge" concept cracks me up. It's a 35 year old song written by a prissy, self-righteous 19 year old know-it-all. MacKaye has repeatedly since said people are taking it way too seriously. The whole thing has a "Life of Brian" vibe.

I almost missed out cuz all the tickets through the presale were sold out then I went through the Live Nation app and scored some great seats in the lower level without a problem.

Offspring Singer Has Too Many Planes, Can't Buy Any More Planes
http://gawker.com/offspring-singer-h...ore-1581390527 TMZ reports that The Offspring lead singer Dexter Holland might be facing the repossession of both of his airplanes JUST BECAUSE he failed to pay for his third airplane. God, the way punks are treated these days. According to a lawsuit filed this week, Cessna Aircraft Company says Holland owes them $782,422.16. His issues with the company date back to 2007 when he had trouble making payments on his third plane. To remedy the situation, he sold the aircraft privately and gave the funds to Cessna, who gave him until 2017 to pay off the remaining balance. He also had to put his two other planes up as collateral. Because he hasn't made a payment in a year, the company is suing for either the money or the planes. |
Re: Is Offspring considered 'straight edge'?
Does he have stock in Apple or something? Does The Offspring pull in that much $$ on tour he can (or chooses not to) pay for multiple airplanes?

Re: Is Offspring considered 'straight edge'?
Dunno, but supposedly $65M net worth (owns a record label, hot sauce brand, masters degree in molecular biology, flight instructor cert)

Re: Is Offspring considered 'straight edge'?
Dexter has a line of hot sauces I believe. Not sure how much scratch he can pull down from that though.

Dexter's sauce taste better than Joe Perry's.
