On this night in 1999 you were listening to... The Offspring

A Friday Flashback to get your weekend started…

IN 1999, POP punk lads The Offspring introduced us to this young fellow:

A geeky white guy who’s a wannabe ‘gangsta’, he’s pretty terrible at everything he tries, but still gets the ladies.

Plus, this track got to number one in 15 countries, netting the band their first number one – after five albums.

There could be a lesson or two in that tale for us all…
