An Austin-based cover band is celebrating this New Year\u2019s Eve with nostalgic emo tunes and all their best friends. Jimmy Eat Brisket is planning a party at Far Out Lounge in Austin, Texas, where they\u2019ll be joined by a stacked lineup of local emo and rock bands. Of course, they\u2019re calling it Brisket Eve 2025.<\/p>\n
Speaking with local Austin station KXAN<\/a>, the band explained what they have planned for Brisket Eve. When asked what it is, they replied simply, \u201cIt\u2019s a party,\u201d before elaborating.<\/p>\n \u201cSo basically, Jimmy Eat Brisket and a bunch of other bands are coming into town for Far Out Lounge,\u201d the band said. \u201cWe\u2019re going to have brisket, pop-up artists, DJs. Basically, it\u2019s one big festival for millennials and those who like emo music and also like eating brisket.\u201d<\/p>\n The band itself has previously hosted Brisketfest, which is exactly what it sounds like (brisket festival). Now, they\u2019re bringing that energy and love of smoked meat to the new year. Other Texas-based bands will join them to play the emo hits all night long,<\/a> according to the schedule on their website.<\/a><\/p>\n Emo Hero is coming in from San Antonio, as well as Sum Day Like Blink, Austin\u2019s premier Blink-182 cover band. Additionally, DJ Kitty will be spinning the emo tracks at the start of the night, while the afterparty will feature EDM remixes and mashups of those 2000s pop-punk favorites until 2 a.m.<\/p>\n Jimmy Eat Brisket Continues Combining Brisket and Emo Music in the New Year<\/p>\n When asked if it\u2019s only going to be brisket at Brisket Eve, the band explained a bit about the food options. <\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s like our Brisketfest we did in August,\u201d they said, \u201cit\u2019s gonna be a lot of brisket trucks, but we also have pizza trucks on stand. Of course, they\u2019ll have brisket specials for those who like brisket, but we\u2019ll also have a sandwich shop on the property as well. There\u2019s gonna be other stuff you can get, not just brisket.\u201d<\/p>\n The website lists Ed\u2019s Smokehouse and Slab BBQ for strictly brisket. Additionally, there\u2019s Far Out Lounge Sandwich Truck with a special brisket menu, and Captain\u2019s Pizza Truck featuring brisket pizza alongside other options. There will also be local pop-up vendors all night with a little something for everyone. <\/p>\n As for the night itself, Jimmy Eat Brisket was asked to describe what a typical show is like. What\u2019s going down at Brisket Eve?<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s more than just a band covering songs,\u201d they explained. \u201cIt\u2019s a party. We have friends come out. We have fans that turn into friends. It\u2019s a live karaoke situation as well. We like to have everyone come up and dance and sing.\u201d<\/p>\n They continued, \u201cAnd it\u2019s just, you have a whole cohesive thing going on. It\u2019s not just us and then you. We go into the crowd. We bring the crowd up to us. It\u2019s a unique thing to experience for sure. A lot of crowd surfing in the front. It\u2019s basically a live emo night, for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n Photo via Jimmy Eat Brisket<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An Austin-based cover band is celebrating this New Year\u2019s Eve with nostalgic emo tunes and all their best…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":104118,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[132,134,133,47104,278,14353,46846],"class_list":["post-104117","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-austin","tag-austin","tag-austin-headlines","tag-austin-news","tag-emo-music","tag-music","tag-new-years-eve","tag-noisey"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104117","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=104117"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104117\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/104118"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=104117"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=104117"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=104117"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
