Taking Back Sunday recently surprised fans with a throwback backyard show on Long Island. After their headlining set at the Four Chord Music Festival, the band arranged a simple show at a friend's house. Fan-recorded videos of the crowd moshing, crowd surfing, and singing along were posted online, which you can view below.

Despite fans' hopes for more small-scale shows like this, the band suggested that it was a one-time event organized through a friend.

In other recent TBS news, the band just secured a platinum certification for Tell All Your Friends.
