The Offspring bring their brand of fast, hook-heavy punk rock to The Venetian Theater, a venue built for sitting back (or jumping up) and taking in a show without having to fight for sightlines. Known for a string of anthems that defined '90s and 2000s punk radio, the band has built a career on sharp guitar riffs, snotty vocal hooks, and songs that stick in your head whether you want them to or not. Expect a set that leans on decades of material, played with the kind of energy that's kept their fans coming back since the Clinton administration.

Catching them on New Year's Eve adds a different flavor to the usual Offspring show, the kind of countdown-to-midnight energy that fits well with a band whose songs practically beg for a crowd to shout along.
