The Honda Motor Company is at it again with the 8^th edition of the Honda Civic Tour. The perfect marriage between music, automotive engineering, and environmentalism will be making a stop in Atlanta on Saturday, April 26^th at the Masquerade Music Park. This is important to note as the original two dates at the Tabernacle have been changed due to the tornado tearing a hole in their roof.

This year’s lineup features the older and more mature Panic at the Disco (no more exclamation point) with their emo brethren Hush Sound, Motion City Soundtrack, and Phantom Planet as opening acts. Continuing on the path laid out by previous Civic tours, the musical stylings will once again contain a heavy dose of emo, pop-punk, and a dash of rock (except for 2006 which was hip-hop focused for some reason). This of course begs the question, are Honda Civics emo?

After hours of intense research I have unequivocally concluded that yes, Honda Civics are indeed emo. With its compact frame, non-threatening nature, low horsepower, and soft exhaust tones Honda Civics tend to display characteristics that manifest itself in “emos” of the human world. Take a look at past year’s examples and judge for yourself. I am a personal fan of the original 2001 Blink 182 version…someone put a lot of thought into that one. Check out the cars.
