Tampa Bay millennials can relive their Hot Topic days with two bands coming to the Bay area this fall.
The Maximum Fun Tour— featuring A Day To Remember and Yellowcard— hits 36 North American venues, including MidFlorida Credit Union in Tampa in September. Albany, New York-based pop punk band State Champs and Boundaries, a metalcore act from Hartford, Connecticut, open the show.
Ocala-born A Day To Remember released its most popular song “If It Means A Lot To You” in 2009. Yellowcard, originally from Jacksonville, peaked with “Ocean Avenue” in 2003 and has since sold 4 million albums and garnered over 1 billion streams.
In honor of its re-surfacing, A Day To Remember released A Day To Remember’s Big Ole Album Vol. 1 earlier this year.
After disbanding in 2017 and rekindling in 2022, Yellowcard followed suit, announced its first album in almost a decade, Better Days to be released on Oct. 10. The band also released its lead single, “Honestly I,” (stylized in all-lowercase) showing off the album’s production by Blink 182’s Travis Barker— who drums in all of its songs.
