If That Helps Anyone IDK - Tumblr Posts

I found it here for non-spotify folks, too :) The whole thing is really a pretty fascinating listen, but they start talking about the catering and its massive barbecue around 16:25 and then about barbecue bands, including MCR, at 18:35.

Anyways I am now sad for a music festival that ended 2 years ago without me knowing about it, but oh well. At least MCR is back :)

Screenshot IDs: “serendysm: Early on it was more for baby bands to do it, it wasn't meant to be mean and BBQ bands were mostly happy to cook for fellow band mates. It might have changed later to more of a rotation thing. At least for MCR it was right as Three Cheers was released and they were not popular quite yet as they were also the breakout band that year.

serendysm: But yeah for sources on specifically MCR the radio episode can be found on Spotify under "The Ongoing History of New Music" episode name is 24 Years of Warped TourActions”

I love the fact that MCR was such a small baby band that they were the 2004 Warped Tour official BBQ Band™ whose job was to cook barbecue for all the other bands in order to be allowed to play, like imagine these punks making you a hot dog before going on stage to play I’m Not OK, 2004 was a wild time y’all
