Mar 7 - 9, 1997 (27 years ago) Knights of Columbus Hall Wayne, Michigan, United States
The Michigan Mind Over Matter Festival in 1997 was a pivotal event in the emo music scene, marking a significant moment during the second wave of emo (aka Midwest Emo). This festival brought together some of the most influential bands of the genre, including Jimmy Eat World, The Promise Ring, Mineral, Boy’s Life, and many more. It was held at the Knights of Columbus Hall—a far cry from a professional music venue—and epitomizes the DIY ethos and community-focused roots of emo during this time. The festival not only highlights the emotional intensity and distinctive sound of emo music but also fostered a sense of community among fans and bands alike. It remains a hallmark of what many consider to be the "golden age" of emo.
