DANCE, DANCE: MySpace vs Emo Night in Commerce

If your playlist from 2007 still lives rent-free in your head, this one is for you. DANCE, DANCE: MySpace vs Emo Night turns a Saturday into a head-to-head between the glittery, top-eight era of MySpace and the eyeliner-heavy emo anthems that soundtracked it. It is one of the more fun LA events this weekend for anyone who grew up sneaking onto a family computer to fix a profile song.

When: Saturday, November 7, 2026, 9 PM to 2 AM Where: The Compound By Dirt Dog, 2909 Supply Ave, Commerce, CA 90040 Price: From $11.33 on DICE Tickets: DICE event page

What to expect

The flyer is a collage of animated skulls, zebra print, studded belts and pop-punk logos, and it sets the tone well. The night is built around a simple idea: the dance floor decides which side wins, the MySpace pop and dance-pop favorites or the emo and pop-punk singalongs. The poster name-checks the sort of bands that defined the period, so expect the choruses you can still recite word for word.

Nights like this are about the crowd as much as the music. People dress up in the era's look, shout every bridge, and drift between the two sides as the set flips back and forth. It is a social, nostalgic party more than a serious club night, though it fits neatly beside the rest of the EDM in Los Angeles because the format is DJ-driven and runs late.

Getting there and practical info

The Compound sits in an industrial stretch of Commerce, just southeast of downtown, so plan your ride ahead. Rideshare is the easiest option for a night that runs until 2 AM, and it keeps parking out of the picture. Tickets are sold through DICE, and the listed starting price of $11.33 is likely the cheapest tier, so earlier buyers tend to get the best deal. Check the DICE page for age rules and door details before you go.

If you are building a list of things to do in Los Angeles this month, this is a good pick for a group of friends who miss the mid-2000s. Pair it with an early dinner nearby, arrive close to 9 PM, and give yourself time to settle in before the floor fills up.
