Hey,
We had a pretty sweet time tonight playing at the Living Hope Church of the Nazarene in Danvers, MA. We got there a little early so we played some football and wall ball with the guys in The Vegas Report. Definitely one of the best choices we've made as a band. Then we got pizza and hung out. A band called Ribs played first and we played after them. Our set went pretty well. A few of our friends came out to see us so that was cool. It was hard to hear everything because we were in this enclosed stage but people said the mix was good in the audience so we were happy about that.

After us, a band called Baby Boy H played and then our good friends and label mates on Driven Records, The Vegas Report, went on. Micah and I grew up with Josh, Mike, and Chris from The Vegas Report and have played in different worship teams with them so it's always good to play with them and hang out. It's also helpful that their stuff is amazing so that we don't have to pretend to like their songs just because we're friends. That's awkward. Their set was incredible as always and they played for a good 45 minutes. They are one of my favorite bands and I'm not just saying that. Not many "post-rock" bands can pull off what they do and they're not predictable like so many bands these days are.

After The Vegas Report, Junius played and they were a treat. Their sound is so huge and powerful but also really dark and engaging. They were awesome. They're also good friends with one of our influences, Caspian, so it was cool to open for them. Afterward I got to talk with their guitarist, Mike, for a little bit and he was a cool guy. Hopefully we can play with them some more in the future.
