The Bremerton, Washington, pop-punk band formed way back in 1992, when its members were just 15 years old. When a particularly skate-friendly, ultra-catchy strain of West Coast pop-punk surged in the 1990s, MxPx was right there every step of the way. In a world where things just seem to be more confusing, we wrote Find A Way Home to come together. I’m glad MxPx is not only still around, but still putting out good music with good messages. MxPx, with The Ataris: 6 p.m. Friday, doors open 5 p.m., $40 in advance, $50 day of show, Century Center, 70 SW Century Drive, Bend, volcanictheatre.com.
