Just because it's Monday night doesn't mean you can't rock out. With NOFX kicking off the first of two night at the House of Blues, fans old and new alike can enjoy the punky aesthetic of a band that has been around for more than 28 years. My favorite thing at a show like tonight's is to see skater dads with their cool kids enjoying the same music, and whether you're the tween just getting into the band or the dad who's grown up on them, you can't deny the fun these bands bring to their live shows that allow them to successfully tour after all these years.
