‘When We Were Young’ Festival Cancels First Date Over Strong Winds

Some fans who were wishing to see their preferred 2000s emo bands in Sin City this weekend run out luck — the date’s been canceled … all thanks to Mother Nature.

Organizers behind the “When We Were Young” celebration revealed Saturday that their same-day kickoff in Vegas was being nixed since of strong winds being mentioned by the National Weather Service — this regardless of the gang stating they’ve been actively getting ready for this.

It seems like the gust speeds were merely going to be expensive and hazardous — upwards of 60 MPH, they state — which has actually required them to shut it down up until tomorrow, Sunday the 23rd.

The program, in the meantime, is expected to continue as set up for those ticketholders, along with ones for next Saturday — the 29th … however the folks who had tickets for today will need to look for a refund, which celebration honchos apologetically state will be provided within 30 days.

This year’s lineup is loaded with bands that were all going to carry out the exact same set times for both days — consisting of headliners Paramore and My Chemical Romance … not to point out Avril Lavigne, Bring Me The Horizon, All-American Rejects, Jimmy Eat World, Dance Gavin Dance, Taking Back Sunday, AFI, We The Kings, Bright Eyes, A Day To Remember and more.
