Slam Dunk Festival preview (Feat. Static Dress, Taking Back Sunday, Goldfinger and more)
<p>Season 10 Episode 10: Slam Dunk Festival preview (Feat. Static Dress, Taking Back Sunday, Goldfinger and more)</p><p></p><p>Matt and James sit down to discuss this year’s exciting edition of the mighty Slam Dunk Festival. Matt will be attending once again, so we thought we should chat about two of our favourite things, emo bands and logistics!</p><p></p><p>We work our way through the set times (the correct one after James started with the 2024 version in front of him) and discuss who Matt should see and why. We debate the merits of seeing older bands that Matt has seen a million times before, rather than new bands. We work out tactics for seeing as many bands as possible, without being so exhausted that Matt just goes home.</p><p></p><p>Should he see TBS? Dance to Good Charlotte or mosh to Knocked Loose? Pay attention to the hype around President? Or just sunbathe? We cover it all and more.</p><p></p><p>Going to Slam Dunk?
