Return of the Descendents

Hermosa Beach punk band The Descendents performed in Hermosa Beach last month at Standing Room. It was their first hometown performance since police shut them down during a Hermosa Fourth of July Ironman on The Strand 20 years ago. The occasion was Pennywise guitarist Fletcher Dragge’s 50th birthday. Dragge was an admiring freshman at Mira Costa when the Descendents were seniors.
