went to celebrated summer records which is ran by an old friend who was in an awesome band called Never Enough we also ran into the Not Sorry guys , talked for a bit with them and then went back to matts for a while before the show in Silver Springs ,

the show in SS was Praise , Mindset , Not Sorry and Coke Bust, it was in a punk / crusty house , the show was in the basement and it was awesome imagine about 40 people crammed into a basement that should only hold around 20 , it ruled ,

saw some old friends at the show which is always awesome


after the show we went back to matts and crashed , got up , showered and went and ate at an awesome pizza spot called matthews , they even had a pizza i could eat and it was fucking fire,

the lineup for the show was

Up Front
Right Idea
Mindset
