Bonnaroo got a little extra emo this year by making the E-word the theme of its annual SuperJam. They tapped Dashboard Confessional’s Chris Carrabba to lead the Emo SuperJam, and he brought lots of friends with him, including Something Corporate’s Andrew McMahon, Thursday’s Geoff Rickly, Circa Survive’s Anthony Green, American Football’s Mike Kinsella, Mayday Parade’s Derek Sanders, the Maine’s John O’Callaghan, Cursive’s Tim Kasher, Covet’s Yvette Young, the Beaches, Trousdale, and more.

The actual Taking Back Sunday also played Bonnaroo on Sunday (but no TBS members appeared at the SuperJam). Check out videos and the full setlist below.
I’ll have more to say this week about all my wonderful friends who joined me for Superjam but for now I simply want to say thank you.
