Hahaha same. It was pretty cool to see a dude at my first show wearing a Vehemence shirt. Chatted him up while waiting to go in. That was the last thing I remember.
Cut to two years later and seeing them in a very small theater In a town I didnāt think they would ever play (09 grand junction) a dude behind me was wearing a Death shirt and it was cool to see another metal head out there.

Talked Converge during set break at one of the new years runs with somebody, which was awesome. Wonder where that guy is now.

Not quite sure when I first heard UM, but first show was ā06. I remember the bottom half album being a big part of it. Also at 14-15 years old hanging with 17-18 year olds who had been to shows I just was naturally drawn to it. Peer pressure I guess
Some of my best memories were trying to impress the juniors/seniors when being a freshman/sophomore. You just wanted to impress them and felt like the shit afterwards
Maybe Iām just realizing I peaked during high school athletics (definitely did)

The first umphreys show I saw was outdoors and I had no idea who they were, got dragged there by a friend. We were walking along the outside of the amphitheater to the gates when they came on and dropped into slacker. I donāt even think I had looked over to see what the band looked like at that point but those initial bars of slacker hooked me immediately. Then I fell in love with bayliss and have been questioning my sexuality ever since

Epic. I won our townās end of season homerun derby. Will forever be my sports claim to fame.
My prize was a free candy and soda of my choice at the snack shack.

Baseball for me was a huge peak at like 10/11 years old. Led the league in HRs and we won the championship. I still joke with my parents about how the only game they missed that season was the only game I hit 2 HRs.
Played feeder baseball in 8th grade and didnāt get a hit til halfway through the season. Wasnāt even a good hit. It was a sacrifice bunt and I ran over the first basemen. Coach told me if I didnāt get a hit soon he was going to send me up there without a bat.

I hated playing baseball
I peaked in soccer and track in 9th grade. By then all I wanted to do was skateboard
As soon as I got diabetes in 5th grade I used that shit to get out of organized sports pretty quickly. I was on varsity tennis in highschool though
Abolish organized sports

Heard the name but not the music. Sister and brother in law took me to 12/2/06 at Nokia theater. Damn that place had great acoustics. I said theyāre pretty good! And almost got kicked out for smoking a bowl at setbreak. Been rooting for them ever since.

I was terrible at baseball myself. I was literally the worst player on my little league team and I think the only reason I was on the team was because my dad was the coachās boss.
However, Iāve always been a good bowler
