The emo teens who once went to Vans Warped Tour have grown up into millennials with day jobs, but When We Were Young Fest proves that pop punk wasn’t just a phase, it’s a lifestyle. Though, what’s cool about this festival is this: More than 50 bands will each perform an album front to back. Highlights include sets of My Chemical Romance’s “The Black Parade,” Jimmy Eat World’s “Bleed American” and The Used’s “In Love and Death.” Other artists on the bill include The All-American Rejects, Dashboard Confessional, Hawthorne Heights, Pierce the Veil, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus and more.
