About New Found Glory
New Found Glory formed in Coral Springs, Florida in the late 90s and basically defined what pop punk sounded like for a generation. Their self-titled debut in 2000 and follow-up "From the Screen to Your Stereo" established them as the band that could write hooks sharp enough to stick in your head for years. "My Friends Over You" became their signature moment—a song about choosing your friends over a relationship that somehow resonated way beyond its simple premise. They've kept at it for over two decades, never chasing trends but not quite willing to disappear either. The band's been through lineup changes and label shifts, but they've maintained the core appeal: earnest, melodic rock that doesn't require you to be fifteen to appreciate, even if it definitely hits different when you are.
Shows are loud singalongs where everyone knows the words. Crowd's genuinely there for it, not just going through the motions. They play the hits without irony and the energy never really dips. People lose their minds in the best way possible.
Known for My Friends Over You, Head on Collision, Dressed to Kill, All the Same, This Disaster
New Found Glory + San Francisco
New Found Glory rolled through the Masonic on October 18th and reminded San Francisco why they've been a reliable presence in the pop-punk circuit for two decades. They leaned into the catalog deep, pulling "Doubt Full" and "Truck Stop Blues" alongside the expected "My Friends Over You." The setlist felt deliberately constructed—moving through their discography with purpose, hitting "Truth of My Youth" early and closing out with "Intro" again, which gave the whole thing a cyclical quality. Twenty-two songs in, and they still sound like a band that cares about the people in the room.

Live Music in San Francisco
San Francisco's pop-punk lineage runs deep but spotty. The city birthed and nurtured plenty of punk, but pop-punk specifically never quite took over the way it did elsewhere. There's always been more art-rock and indie sensibility here. That said, the appetite for melodic, hook-driven rock never disappeared — it just coexists with everything else.
San Francisco road trip to see New Found Glory?
Stay in Hayes Valley or the Mission—both neighborhoods have the kind of restaurants and bars that make a weekend feel deliberate rather than touristy. Head to State Bird Provisions for dinner if you can get in; it's precise and inventive without being pretentious. Spend a day in Muir Woods or hiking around Twin Peaks for actual views of the city. The de Young Museum in Golden Gate Park is worth a couple hours if the weather holds. Hit up a coffee place on Valencia Street in the Mission just to sit and watch the neighborhood move around you.
