so the whole band took a mini road trip up to columbia see the chariot show at new brookland tavern. yea, it was awesome. i haven't been that impressed by a band live in a long time. so much passion, so much energy that it becomes infectious. also makes me impatient to start playing shows again, but alas we still need to hammer out a couple more songs...hopefully we'll be able to play a show before christmas though.
here's a short clip (it's from a phone so judge accordingly) from the chariot's set...love that band.
also, former thieves played second that night and they were impressive to say the least. reminded me of poison the well a bit. i bought their album, haven't stopped listening to it since.
and last but not least, listener opened up the show. while, i completely understand if you don't like his stuff, i find it great. it's spoken word/poetry with music...that's really the only way i know how to describe it. i'm convinced he's a genius. and he's also a super nice dude, got to chat with him for a few while buying merch. take a listen.
i've got two more shows to go to this week, both I'm stoked about. tThe Saves The Day/Bayside/I Am the Avalanche tour comes through charleston on thursday. Got to meet Chris (drummer for Bayside) at Jenn's wedding so hopefully they'll get into town in time for us to go grab some food and a beer. and then Oh, Sleeper is playing charleston saturday, so I'll probably be at that. their newest album is really good. Not looking forward to all the kids that'll be at that show though...oh well.
other than the new Four Year Strong "In Some Way, Shape or Form" that drops tomorrow (stream it on their facebook), there aren't many albums coming out, at least that I'm aware of, that I'm excited about so go listen to some of your classics after you pick up the new FYS.
other than that, i'm alive and breathing. if you care about a life update, you've probably got my number so get in touch with me that way...it's much easier than trying to blog about it. and if you care about a life update but don't have my number, i'm not hard to track down on the interwebz.
much love,
