The Used

It’s pretty much summer vacation, and in a perfect world, pop-punk-slash-emo kids would be gearing up for the scorching Vans Warped Tour’s stop at Vinoy Park or the ol’ Gary.

Alas, the world no longer turns that way, but at the very least, plenty of the bands involved in the legendary festival tour remain active. Take The Used, for example. The Utah-based emo outfit’s 11-track new album just dropped last Friday and took just 11 days to complete. Another 10 tracks, recorded in 10 days, see release at a date to be determined.

Tickets to see The Used play Hard Rock Event Center at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tampa on Friday, May 26 are still available and start at $61.
