The Get Up Kids and The Format co-headline a concert at the Lincoln Theatre in Washington, D.C., pairing two influential acts from the indie/emo and indie-pop rock scenes. The Get Up Kids are noted for their melodic, guitar-driven emo/post-hardcore sound, while The Format brings literate, hook-forward indie pop — a lineup that appeals to fans of turn-of-the-century alternative rock. The show takes place at the historic Lincoln Theatre on the U Street corridor, a longstanding live-music venue in Washington, D.C.
