Alkaline Trio and Saves the Day Will Destroy Revolution on May 10

It seems Alkaline Trio visits South Florida every couple of months. Now that's not a bad thing at all, especially since they're one of the best poppy/dark punk bands still making music. But the big news here is Saves the Day is coming with them, and it seems like a...

It seems Alkaline Trio visits South Florida every couple of months. Now that's not a bad thing at all, especially since they're one of the best poppy/dark punk bands still making music. But the big news here is Saves the Day is coming with them, and it seems like a decade since they've been here. In fact it hasn't been all that long, but it's great to see these two pair up for a tour. Fast paced power chords, more bitter lyrics than your middle school notebooks, and a crowd filled with randomly bleached bangs and thick eyeliner add up to one hell of a night. Tickets run $18 and can be purchased via Ticketmaster.
