That wasn’t it for the news for the week though. So let’s get to the rest, shall we?
Will When We Were Young Festival be the next Fyre Festival?
On this week's episode, Tyler and Bailey discuss some BIG news the scene received last week about When We Were Young Festival. It will go down as the Woodstock of the scene as it's an ALL emo / ALL pop punk festival that is taking place in Las Vegas later this year in October. And if you haven’t seen this yet, it is the best lineup the emo and pop punk scenes has ever seen before. And that's an understatement.
Will it be another Fyre Fest? Will it be another AstroWorld? A lot of fans think this will be the case. Bailey and Tyler think otherwise.
