Fishbone has always pushed limits. From their eccentric ska-punk sounds to the over-the-top outfits of frontman Angelo Moore, the band has maintained an unapologetic and unfiltered presence from the start.

The Pacific Amphitheatre was ablaze with nostalgia on August 3rd, as three legendary Los Angeles bands — X, Los Lobos, and Ozomatli — joined forces for the 99 Years of Rock ‘N Roll Tour.
