One of the absolute highlights of my concert-going life was catching The Offspring live in Lubbock. I can still see the guys performing "Gone Away" against the backdrop of the Texas stars.

I have 13 skulls tattooed on my arms and leg -- each an icon representing something. The idea for these Day of the Dead skulls came from the cover off The Offspring's "Ixnay on the Hombre" album.

When the album first came out, it gave you the option of loading the cover on your computer desktop (at the time, that was a novelty). So not only was the album one of my favorites, I looked at the graphic every day for a year or so.

We were fortunate to have The Offspring visit in 2006. I remember it being a medium to light turnout (I think it was a weeknight or something). Anyways, there's some pretty good pictures from the visit, so check 'em out below.
