THE ROCK World’s finest headed to the Gibson Amphitheatre in Los Angeles on December 9 and 10 for a pre-Christmas mince pie and glass of eggnog in aid of the KROQ’s Almost Acoustic Christmas festival. It wasn’t all kicking back and enjoying the festive merriment though, as Foo Fighters – who headlined both nights-AFI, My Chemical Romance, Panic! At The Disco, Fall Out Boy, Incubus, Papa Roach, Evanescence, Wolfmother and Saosin were all there to rock the Santa hats off the sold-out crowd.
Also on the bill were former Blink 182 members Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker with their band +44, and their former bandmate Tom DeLonge, who was with his AVA posse. Unfortunately, the season of good will to all men didn’t inspire a kiss and make up session between the former friends. In fact, the two bands, who were playing on different days, made sure that they didn’t cross paths at all. Come on guys, where’s your Christmas spirit?

[about i’m not okay] yknow the original version is like 7 minutes long? it’s terrible. literally like a melody that carries that whole song, the chorus melody, was in the song maybe, like 15 seconds.
