Nofx has been my favorite band since I was 12 and I'm now 40. I've never seen one of their shows because I suffer from pretty bad anxiety but I've been doing a lot better. If I don't get to make it to one of their shows before they stop touring I'll never forgive myself.

You can do it. Stand in the back where you can escape quickly if your having a panic attack but trust me, they will make you laugh, sing along and forget about everything. You will enjoy it.

I have GAD(general anxiety disorder), ADHD and depression . . Just do what I do and drink until all that bull shits gone and then go see NOFX. You may be a bit fucked up the next day but at least you saw NOFX 🤷🏼‍♂️

Shit bro, I've never been to a NOFX show either. I live in Cincinnati and would definitely be willing to roll out with you. I avoid shows because I dislike crowds as well, but together I'm sure we could manage! You just have anxiety? You're not like...ugly or anything right?? Lol just fuckin around man.

My favorite band of all time. Started listening in 1992. i have every album ever produced. many bootlegs, even my own personal bootlegs recorded by me. seen many shows . was even privied to hear The Decline Live at one show i was at. Very sad when I heard the news, but I totally understand that you can't go on forever, and that there must be an end at some point. Thank You so much for all of the great music and entertainment over the years, you will be missed dearly. good bye and best of luck to all of you whatever you end up doing in the aftermath.

Mike did them dirty, he hasn't been right in the head for years now. Mike's ego outgrew the band.... It all started happening around the same time he broke up with Erin and started wearing dresses. I hate to say it, I'm the biggest NOFX fan ever but it's the truth. I've seen them live around 10 times starting back in 1995 at a little dive in Melbourne Australia called EV's in Croydon that they played to a crowd of about 100 people. I fkn love them more than any other band. It's just sad that they end on Mike's whim rather than as a joint decision by all 4 members.
