I Just Read About That…

[DID NOT ATTEND: February 14, 2025] The Get Up Kids / The Anniversary

So, once again I missed The Get Up Kids.  They played back in September for this tour and I couldn’t make it.  I hoped  they’d swing around again and they did.  But on Valentine’s Day?

I’m sure many people would find seeing them on Valentine’s Day to be a perfect night.  But, well, not in our house.

I recalled loving The Anniversary‘s album Designing a Nervous Breakdown and being kind of obsessed with them.  And yet, listening to it again now, 25 years later, I don’t really remember it.  But I like it.  I think it would have been fun to see this pairing.  Shame the date was really bad.

I won’t even hope that this tour comes back around, because they are heading to Europe and surely won’t play it again when they come back.
