The Offspring joined by Sum 41 and Simple Plan members

The Offspring‘s recently wrapped “Let the Bad Times Roll” tour featured support from Sum 41 and Simple Plan — one of the strongest pop-punk tour packages in recent memory.

The trek ended earlier this month, but during the second to last show on September 2nd at the Jones Beach Theater in Wantagh, New York, members of all three bands shared the stage for a surging run through of The Offspring’s ska-tinged number “Why Don’t You Get a Job?”

The epic moment occurred toward the end of the main portion of The Offspring’s headlining set. For the first time on the tour, the band was joined onstage by tourmates Deryck Whibley of Sum 41 and Pierre Bouvier of Simple Plan.

The two form a veritable punk-rock triumvirate with The Offspring frontman Dexter Holland, as their voices stack in joyous harmony during the song’s chorus refrain. The pro-shot footage of the occasion captures the celebratory atmosphere — seemingly everybody on the stage sheds a smile at some point in the clip, reveling in the conclusion of the successful tour.

Elsewhere in the set, The Offspring reeled off a cover of The Ramones’ “Blitzkrieg Bop” and threw the metalheads in the audience a tasty bone in form of a medley featuring Black Sabbath’s “Iron Man,” Iron Maiden’s “The Trooper,” Guns N’ Roses’ “Sweet Child o’ Mine,” and an arrangement of “In the Hall of the Mountain King” (from The Offspring’s 2021 album Let the Bad Times Roll).
