Twin Cities pop-punk band Motion City Soundtrack performed at Palace Theatre in St. Paul on Valentine’s Day. The show saw frontman Justin Courtney Pierre in much better health than the band’s appearance at Minnesota Yacht Club Festival in the summer of 2025, which featured a range of guest vocalists filling in. Joining them were the Los Angeles pop-punk group Say Anything, and local indie rock group Agnes Uncaged.
