All Time Low - Everyone’s Talking Tour
Written by: Tegan Chin
To all the elder emos and baby emos out there — this show is everything you hoped it would be.
The Boeing Center at Tech Port was an incredible venue. Security was quick and easy to get through, and the food court had plenty of options with reasonable prices (all around $10–$15 a meal). The sushi station definitely caught me off guard, but my favorite part? The coffee station.
If you’re anything like me and need to know the dress code, it’s simple: black. Or a band tee. Or honestly, just come as you are.
The night kicked off with The Paradox, and if you’ve never heard of them, I promise you’ll love them. Formed in 2024, the four-member band — Eric Dangerfield, Donald Bryant, Christopher “Xelan” Bernard, and Percy “PC3” Crews — embodies pop punk. They’re high-energy, hilarious, and even nailed the iconic guitar jump.
Up next was The Cab, and despite a few minor mic issues, they were phenomenal. Their vocals? Absolutely unreal. Hearing them live felt like having your ears blessed by angels. It’s hard to believe their last tour was back in 2012 for the Everything’s Fine / Symphony Soldier era which was 13 years ago! My 12-year-old self can finally rest easy after hearing “Angel with a Shotgun” live.
Then came Mayday Parade, celebrating an incredible 20 years together. You could feel the love in the room for them — the crowd sang every word to fan favorites like Jamie All Over, and the energy just kept building with each song.
By the time All Time Low took the stage, the anticipation had reached its peak. The crowd’s energy was unreal — a perfect mix of joy, nostalgia, and chaos in the best way possible.
One of my favorite moments came right at the start, when a voiceover from Alex Gaskarth said, “Everyone is allowed to feel sad, but you’re not allowed to stay there.” It perfectly set the tone for the night — for a few hours, it felt like all your problems melted away. The jumping, the screaming, the shoulder rides — it was everything.
The last time All Time Low played San Antonio, they were at the Aztec Theatre which has a capacity of 1,500. Seeing them pack out the Boeing Tech Center this time around made me so proud.
And if anyone asks — no, punk is not dead.
