So Bayside/Saves the Day was awesome! The show was grand, even while I was walking around on an untreated broken foot (I did eventually go to the hospital). The entire night was definitely a nostalgia trip, both bands playing songs I have treasured since my high school days. I got the chance to interview Nick…
Gotta love The Front Bottoms. I first started listening to them when they came to Athens in September. Even though I missed them when they were here (I had already bought Bright Eyes tickets for the same night), I looked them up and was immediately hooked.

I just went to see blink-182 at Aaron’s Amphitheatre in Atlanta. This was an incredible show. I left right after my morning class and got there three hours before the gates were to open (‘cause I’m super cool like that and determined to get up to the front). As soon as they opened the gates, I…
