About

A major punk band for over two decades, Social Distortion came out of Los Angeles's active hardcore scene of the late '70s and early '80s. Their first album, Mommy's Little Monster, appeared in 1983 and featured the song "Another State of Mind," which aired as one of a few punk videos on mid-'80s MTV. Since then, Social Distortion have further developed their mix of punk and rockabilly with such songs as "Ball and Chain," "Bad Luck" and "Reach for the Sky." To this day, Social Distortion remain one of punk's most exciting and vital bands. Over the course of their career, Social Distortion have brought many venues to capacity, like Observatory North Park and the Mission Ballroom.

  • Punk Rock-n-Rollers, Great again!

    by Toddio on 7/8/25GLC Live at 20 Monroe - Grand RapidsRating: 5 out of 5

    Had a great time seeing Social Distortion at GLC Live at 20 Monroe. The band sounded great playing a good mix of old and new music. Mike shared some moments of reflection between a few songs which added to the intimate nature of the show and venue. The opening band, Plague Vendor, was a high energy and fun band. They sounded great and were full of energy. Definitely set the tone for the evening. Crowd surfing, mosh pits, all night! By the way, if you are ever on the fence about seeing a show at GLC at 20 Monroe, jump off and run to the show! It is a great venue for seeing a live concert. And, Grand Rapids is a great city with tons of great restaurants, breweries (beer city USA!), and other things to do. Stop on by!

  • A very pleasant surprise

    by Paul D on 7/8/25GLC Live at 20 Monroe - Grand RapidsRating: 5 out of 5

    Given the health problems Mike Ness has recently faced, my expectations were somewhat lowered, but his (and the entire band's) performance was phenomenal. Great energy and even better sound. They haven't lost a step in the nearly 5 decades they've been at it.

  • Always a great show!

    by LSnook on 7/8/25GLC Live at 20 Monroe - Grand RapidsRating: 5 out of 5

    We've travelled to multiple Ontario cities and US states to see Social D. They never disappoint. GLC was a great venue.

  • Awesome concert.

    by Snake-Man on 7/1/25Mayo Clinic Health System Event Center - MankatoRating: 5 out of 5

    Small venue, but it worked. Beverage cups didn't quite fit the cup-holders in the seats...they kind of sunk through the bottom and weren't real stable...but other than that, no complaints.

  • Social D. The Best.

    by Friend of Skullie on 7/1/25Mayo Clinic Health System Event Center - MankatoRating: 5 out of 5

    The boys are always fantastic - great show. Venue sound...not so great. Experienced this with Dylan a few weeks ago too.

  • Social D...there's none better!

    by KennyCocktail on 7/1/25Mayo Clinic Health System Event Center - MankatoRating: 5 out of 5

    As always Social Distortion and Mike Ness killed it! High energy show with lots of new tunes. I can't wait for the new album to come out! The venue was so-so...not sure why they didn't play First Avenue or the Fine Line or the Fillmore or the Armory or the Palace Theater...the list goes on and on. Social Distortion are the OG of punk and deserved to play a much better, classic Minneapolis venue. My seats were behind GA so it sounded great, but from what I understand up closer was not a great mix, especially center stage.

  • Great show

    by Chanel5000perfume on 6/28/25The ELM - BozemanRating: 4 out of 5

    Long time, die hard Social D fan.....They sounded so good but I wish Bozeman caught up with the rest of the country and would ban "mosh pits"although compared to mosh pits back in the day when people left with broken noses, ankles, arms and concussions it was pretty mellow. I'm just an oldie trying to soak in some great music and was happy to see a younger generation having fun but being a fan and coming from Orange County & L.A. and getting to see my band where I moved to 20 years ago was a thrill. I feel like many kids just went to party and didn't have the full appreciation. Opening band Plague Vendor was insane, omg I was exhausted watching that guy, he was so much fun to watch. They had a good sound.

  • Exciting

    by Lint6 on 6/27/25The ELM - BozemanRating: 5 out of 5

    Great set list, sound check was fun. Still high energy.

  • Absolutely amazing!

    by LeatherDaddyCharles on 6/26/25The Wilma - MissoulaRating: 5 out of 5

    5th time seeing Social D and they have brought it every time! This show was fantastic and the set list was perfect and that encore, wow! Also Plague Vendor has never disappointed me, such an incredible opener!

  • Good but!

    by Shawn on 6/23/25Vina Robles Amphitheatre - Paso RoblesRating: 4 out of 5

    The venue is a great place to see concerts . Plauge vendor was so much fun lots of energy put on a great show music was fun. Social distortion was good we just wish they could leave politics out of it. We go to a concert to step away from the stress of the world. Other than that I would have given a 5 star because it was fun.

  • Best band ever

    by Cassie on 6/23/25Vina Robles Amphitheatre - Paso RoblesRating: 5 out of 5

    I've seen social distortion 4 times and everytime is amazing!!

  • Awesome Show, Great new venue

    by Bill on 6/18/25Channel 24 - SacramentoRating: 5 out of 5

    Sociql D put on a great show with both new songs and many of their classics. Mike and the band still rock with the same intensity as they have for many years. Kudos to Plague Vendor, the opening act, for an entertaining and energetic set. Channel 24 is a wonderful addition to our local Sac venues, geat stage, sound and set up!

  • Great show and I like the new venue.

    by Dan on 6/17/25Channel 24 - SacramentoRating: 5 out of 5

    Social D is always a great show. Plague Vender was a great choice for an opener. The venue was great, but parking was a bit chaotic. No parking structures nearby and the lots were looking for $30 for the night. Other than that the show was great. The bars were accessible. I didn’t go upstairs but it said there was a patio. I’ll look forward to discovering more next time.

  • Social Distortion in Sacramento CA

    by Harlie on 6/17/25Channel 24 - SacramentoRating: 5 out of 5

    Social Distortion is always amazing. This is the 14th time I seen them live and it was a great show. Their set was a little shorter than usual, but the venue was really good.

  • Best Band Ever!

    by Amy G on 6/17/25Channel 24 - SacramentoRating: 5 out of 5

    Social D is definitely my favorite live band to see. They always put on an epic show!! Channel 24 was an awesome venue to see them at. I definitely recommend this venue! Can’t wait to see Social D again next year!!!

  • They Still Got It!

    by Tattooed 4th Grade Teacher on 6/17/25Channel 24 - SacramentoRating: 5 out of 5

    Got the opportunity to see Social Distortion at Channel 24 in Sacramento. First off, the venue is beautiful. Not a bad seat in the house and excellent acoustics! As for the show itself, the band still plays with the same fire they always have. Played almost all the hits, plus 4 new songs. Mike Ness still sings each song with passion. The band still brings it. Just an excellent show!

  • Social Distortion still rocking!

    by PowerMom09 on 6/17/25Channel 24 - SacramentoRating: 5 out of 5

    New Venue in Sacramento- Channel24. Easy to Uber to and easy to Uber out which is a huge plus! Easy check in, several people checking wristbands so able to get a drink quick. Actually, everything was pretty well oiled. Was able to get checked in for wrist ID, merch line moved quick, walked right up to the bar got a drink, and just turned around and was right there able to listen to some great rock! I’ll be happy to go back. Not to mention to see social D again!

  • Social D best ever

    by Jason on 6/17/25Channel 24 - SacramentoRating: 5 out of 5

    The new Channel 24 venue was fantastic! Perfect for a GA show. Not a bad “seat” in the house. Social Distortion was amazing! Guitars and vocals were inspiring, and the set was a perfect mix of old and new songs. This might have been the best they’ve ever sounded, and I’ve seen them a dozen or so times over the years. Can’t wait for the new album!

  • Social Distortion Rocks!!!

    by Dudz on 6/17/25Channel 24 - SacramentoRating: 5 out of 5

    These legendary punk rockers brought down the house at Channel 24 in Sacramento!!! Mike Ness and his band still know how to whip up a crowd! And the opener, Plague Vendor, has such a fun, energetic set! We had a blast!!!

  • Fantastic!

    by Jamie on 6/16/25Vina Robles Amphitheatre - Paso RoblesRating: 5 out of 5

    The concert was fantastic! The energy, the music, the performance—everything was spot on. Mike sounded even better live, and the crowd was totally into it, which made the whole experience memorable
