News you may have missed! (8/28/21)
Welcome to the weekend! Here’s another mailer to kick off your Saturday (or whatever you day you’re getting to read this). This week brings us new music from State Champs, The Summer Set, Halsey, Grayscale and a ton others. Also, this week on The All Punked Up Podcast, we discussed the question: how risky is it to attend concerts? There’s also a weird lawsuit that sees the Nirvana Nevermind album baby suing the band.
How risky is it to attend concerts?
This week, Bailey and Tyler ask the question: how risky is it to attend concerts? A recent interview done by the people at Billboard this week helped answer just that by talking to an infectious disease expert Dr. Amesh A. Adalja. They give you the gist of the interview while trying to help out any concert-goers that may feel uneasy or unsure about the safety of concerts.
Before they get to that, the crew runs through some interesting music news, then they talk about State Champs’ new teaser for their upcoming “Just Sound” song, as well as give their takes on new music released this week from Noahfinnce, Save Face, Yungblud, Doll Skin, happydaze, Real Friends and Royal Blood.
