If you're a fan of Social Distortion, get ready to head to San Antonio, it's the only Texas date on their expanded Fall tour.  The band never really has been know for hitting every burg on the map (bummer, since we live in the burg), but having only one option to see them kind of sucks.  Lucky for you if you don't live in Texas, we have the rest of the dates after the jump.

Despite having that 'pop' edge to a lot of their punk, the Offspring haven't really crossed over to Top 40 radio.  Now, in case you don't know, Top 40 is where artists GET PAID.  I can see the Offspring getting paid with this song, the question is, will us rockers, who are currently enjoying "Days Go By" still accept the Offspring after this tune?  More after the jump.

I'm a big fan of the Offspring.  The Offspring even inspired all of the Day Of The Dead" tattoos that I have.  I got the idea from the cover of "Xnay on the Hombre".  The last Offspring album "Rise and Fall, Rage & Grace" was chock full of good stuff, so much so, it's hard to believe it came out three years ago!  More after the jump.

Green Day dropped the bombshell yesterday that not only have they been hard at work on new music, they plan to churn out three new discs over the course of the next year. With the names ‘¡Uno!,’ ‘¡Dos!,’ and ‘¡Tré!,’ the new albums are tentatively scheduled to be released on Sept. 25, Nov. 13 and Jan. 15, respectively.

Green Day‘s recording pace has certainly slowed over the years — it took them four years to complete ‘American Idiot’ and five to finish the follow-up, ’21st Century Breakdown,’ which was released three years ago — but they’re about to start making up for lost time with a whopping three albums of new music, scheduled to be released between September 2012 and January 2013.

While we still don’t even know if Axl Rose is going to show up to the Guns N’ Roses Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction ceremony April 14, we do now know who will deliver their induction. California punk rockers Green Day will be on hand deliver the speech inducting GN’R into rock and roll history — joining a V.I.P. cast of presenters from ZZ Top who will induct Freddie King to John Mellencamp in

California punk rockers The Offspring first began working on the follow-up to 2008′s ‘Rise, Fall, Rage and Grace’ in 2009, now comes word from frontman Dexter Holland that the long-awaited album is officially done.

This what rocking Irish music sounds like. Out of Quincy Massachusetts, It's The Dropkick Murphys! The boys combine traditional Irish instruments with a punk sensibility to give you a real Irish "working mans" sound. You've heard their music in the movies "Boondock Saints" and their biggest hit "Shipping Off To Boston" was featured in the movie "The Departed&q

It would appear that Green Day are going to keep fans up to speed on the progress of their new album via YouTube, as they have posted two more brief videos of their in-studio activities.
