A Night of Pop-Punk Nostalgia: 3OH!3, Bowling For Soup & Simple Plan Rock Austin

The Simple Plan, Bowling For Soup, and 3OH!3 concert at Moody Amphitheater in Austin was the ultimate 2000s time capsule. The outdoor venue under the Austin skyline had a relaxed but electric vibe, bringing together older fans who grew up with the music and a younger generation hearing it live for the first time.

3OH!3 started the show and got the crowd excited with their fun songs and high-energy performance. Fans were dancing, singing, and enjoying hits like “Don’t Trust Me” and “My First Kiss.” Bowling For Soup came next and brought a lot of humor to the stage. They had the crowd laughing and singing along to songs like “1985” and “Girl All the Bad Guys Want.” Their fun personality made their set feel like everyone was hanging out with old friends.

Simple Plan closed the night and brought the biggest energy of the evening. When they played songs like “I’m Just a Kid,” “Perfect,” and “Addicted,” the entire crowd was singing along. It was cool seeing people of different ages enjoying the same music together. The songs brought back memories of the 2000s and made the concert feel like a trip back in time. The outdoor setting at Moody Amphitheater also made the night feel relaxed and exciting at the same time.

The lineup was practically a time capsule of the 2000s pop-punk and alternative-party scene. 3OH!3 brought the chaotic party energy, Bowling For Soup brought the humor and irreverence, and Simple Plan brought the emotional, sing-at-the-top-of-your-lungs side of pop-punk.
