Flashback: Yellowcard’s “Ocean Avenue”

Who doesn’t love a good trip down memory lane?  And what better memories do we have than at concerts with our favorite bands?  Especially when you can go back to songs and still know all the words, and when the lead singer can just hold out his mic and the crowd sings along in unison—that feeling is indescribable.

This summer, the Van’s Warped Tour helped bring back the magic of those memories with one of my younger self’s favorites, Yellowcard and their hit, “Ocean Avenue.”

Ring a bell?  Well, if you’re feeling nostalgic and can’t make it to Warped Tour this year, have no fear!

Alternative Press was kind enough to post a video of Yellowcard (and the crowd) singing their beloved song.

So check it out and lose yourself in one of our generation’s classic summer songs!
