The Get Up Kids

Live at the Metro Theatre, Sydney. Hailing from Kansas City, Missouri (why is Kansas City not in Kansas??), these guys were initially regarded as prime movers in the 90s ‘emo’ scene (a label they moved away from reasonably quickly as they developed a more distinctive alternative rock sound). They have been name checked as major influences by bands like My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy and Taking Back Sunday with Pete Wentz of Fallout Boy putting it pretty starkly: “Fall Out Boy would not be a band if it were not for The Get Up Kids”. They broke up in 2005, but thankfully reunited a few years later and in 2010 started recording new music. This show from 2011 took place around the time of their second post-reformation release ‘There Are Rules’.
