This copypasta also doesn't really work cause Rites of Spring has barely any connectivity to Of 99. DC emo stuff became Fugazi post hardcore stuff, screamo had some influence from that but Page 99 drew a lot more from powerviolence and Western mass/Detroit area hardcore which also formed the Midwestern emo thing. Loma Prieta came around like 10 years later
Looking at the line up, it's way too many bands for 1 day and only 3 stages. Also $500 bucks for single day VIP first release is ridiculous. It should be a two day festival for that price.
Imagine not listing Embrace as REAL EMO. Smdh my dung heap...
Not gonna argue with anything in the actual meme, but as far as the fest itself goes, didn't All American Rejects come out and say that they had no idea they were confirmed until the flier came out? Sounds like some shit a poorly run DIY venue might pull.
Was emo a fashion in the 90s? Cus mcr and all those are deff at least reps of emo fashion of the day, but that's separate from music
The watered down goth look has nothing to do with actual emo music. Emo bands just looked like nerds.
Talking thick glasses and button up shirts. Like genuine stereotypical nerd look. Emo was band kid softbois who discovered hardcore
nah emo cannot be a fashion. look at photos of well known emo bands like orchid pg99 saetia etc , they do not really have one "look". they just dressed and looked like normal ppl in every way....
Jawbreaker is actually more like real emonthan anything in this copypasta actually. Real emo is shit that sounds like Appleseed Cast
