Do you think it will be a fairly diverse age group? My wife and I are in our early 30s, and she loved Emo music is high-school and still listens to it.

We just don't wanna be the weird old people in the club lol.

Oh, go be the weird olds. No one really cares unless you start creeping. I went to a show at the Camel once where I was a good 20-25 years older than anyone but the bar staff and no one even looked at me.

I feel like almost everyone will be between 25-35. That’s the music we grew up on

I was thinking the same thing.

Is emo even still popular? Maybe it’s just me being old, but it feels like it reached its zenith in the early to mid 2000s.

Don’t know about popular, by there’s a channel on SiriusXM called The Emo Project (ch 713) and I listen to it regularly.

Emo is very popular, but the genre has sonically shifted from what you might know “emo” as from the Hawthorne Heights days

Emo is very popular. Most of the current emo bands are very bad though. Just saw Pool Kids (with two bad emo bands) at Canal Club and remembered why I hate that venue.

Was wondering the same thing, mid 30s couple, also not a lot of details with a 20 dollar cover.

Emo themed nights at venues are hugely popular in bigger cities and always with a very diverse age group. I live in Austin now and these events regularly sell out. I’d say we’re definitely living through an Emo renaissance
