Starting this coming Monday, The Johnsons Bushwick will have a monthly party that’s cheekily called Taking Back Monday. This recurring event’s purpose? Celebrating the emo, pop-punk, and post-hardcore tunes of millennial’s youths. Did you grow up on Brand New, At The Drive-in, Lifetime, Against Me, Jawbreaker, Thursday, and everything in between? Come reminisce!
On the first Monday of every month, you can channel your inner emo kid—the one who thrived off of teenage angst in the early 2000s.
Think of it as a version of the ever-popular Emo Night Brooklyn, except way more lowkey, with barstools and dope food from Strange Flavor, the burger shack in the front of the bar (vegan options available!)
