Ten years after its release, Knuckle Puck’s Copacetic still hits just as hard—maybe even harder. The Chicago pop-punk veterans brought their Copacetic 10-year anniversary tour to Anaheim, and the night was a perfect mix of nostalgia, energy, and pure emotion.
From the moment they hit the stage with ‘Wall to Wall (Depreciation),’ the crowd was ready to go. Fans were singing their hearts out, crowd surfing, and feeding off the band’s energy. Every song felt like a classic, but songs like ‘Disdain’ and ‘Evergreen’ had the place full of energy. Everyone was truly reliving the past ten years together.
Halfway through the full album, the band shared a moment of reflection: They talked about how, ten years ago, they never imagined Copacetic would become something so important to so many people. Back then, they were just a bunch of guys making music in a basement, not thinking they were about to drop an album that would have such a lasting impact. Hearing them talk about it with such sincerity made the night feel like a celebration of how far they’ve come.
The band kept the energy high with the full version of ‘Untitled,’ and by the time the final chorus hit—“I’m not sad anymore / I’m just tired of this place”—the entire room was singing it at the top of their lungs. It was one of those moments where you just couldn’t help but feel every word, and the crowd’s energy was impossible to ignore.
But of course, they weren’t done yet. They came back out with ‘The Tower,’ ‘Want Me Around,’ and other fan favorites. ‘Want Me Around’ had the whole crowd losing it (including us), with half the room screaming and the other half trying not to cry. It’s a track that always hits deep, and it felt especially powerful on this tour.
Overall, this wasn’t just a tour celebrating Copacetic—it was a reminder of how much this album still means to fans and how Knuckle Puck has grown as a band over the past decade. If you get the chance to catch a show on this tour, it’s more than just a great set—you’ll feel the connection between the band and the fans in a way that’s super real, raw, and unforgettable.
