I would consider NOFX to be around my fourth or fifth favorite band. I've seen them live here in Dublin and seeing them booking their tours in these weird countries was really interesting. You get to see the band's home lives and how they feel about playing these weird countries. Obviously the show features a lot of NOFX songs which, if you're watching this show in the first place, you must like. But a lot of these songs get redundant. "Timmy the Turtle" and "American Errorist (I Hate Hate Haters)" are two songs that you'll hear over and over again. There's definitely songs to look out for though. Like "Leaving Jesusland" being played in Malaysia or "Last Night Was Really Fun" being played in Singapore. The show is pretty tame. That's not to say it's not good, but for anyone checking out NOFX for the first time off this, won't really get the idea. Only songs without curses are played. The DVD comes with an extra disc with extended footage. It's pretty cool to see, but honestly, you won't watch it too often. If you're a fan of NOFX, then this is a no-brainier, go buy it. If you're only getting into NOFX, hold off for a while. Listen to their music more, if they're playing in your area, go see them. Just get the general idea before watching this.

I'm the second review, and the first in 12 years!
Damn punk's (I'm) irrelevant. I didn't know how I'd feel going in. I must say the first season feels like NOFX just wanna do their thing, go crazy places and be their trademark crass, fun party dudes and the tv editors wanted more reality show - - -the result feels sort of like NOFX are stilting their personalities... somewhat, and the drama feels manufactured, but there's some interesting moments, and to me they weren't the 'sniffing random drugs' and 'fighting of groupies' and more the weird promoters and audiences at the punk shows.
The second season, which was self-produced is far more no holds-barred, but Fat Mike's drug and drink problem really was getting dark, and that was more of what I was expecting to see, though I didn't think it wold get so dark so quick. The drama is real and the crowds feel much less restrained, and , despite not feeling as nice, feels more authentic punk-rock and I recommend it more.
