It has only been 15 years since the last time I saw hope con. For the 3rd time recently, we once again tapped our strategic Jim-Carroll reserves to get a classic hardcore band back. The entire show was 3 of my top live bands and one band with all members of bands that I love live. Great night! You can see COA in Manchester at the Jewel tomorrow (6/8).

What a great night with all people that I used to see all the time in VFW's but now, hardly ever see. The venue ruled. You will notice in the photos that other people's flashes were going off when I took my pictures. It was pretty weird. I also too a roll of 35mm that I will be posting later.

It's crazy to think that basically 1.5 to 2 decades ago, I would spend a couple nights a month with many of the people in that room. Hearing Chris's vocals ruled, it brought me right back. Also, the lighting at the Vault (in the big room) rules. I took almost 4 1/2 thousand pictures.

The 19th MDF is over and in the books. It went by so fast. With the new set up, it was really simple to navigate all the bands on all the stages. Since I haven't slept yet, good night. More pictures on IG later.

Ugh! today was awesome but went by way too fast. I'm sad that I didn't get to hear Forbidden do Step By Step. One more day. It's going to go by way too fast and I'll be driving home.

Day one opened up 3 stages... It also opened up a can of whoopass on my out of shape, doughy old person body. Tomorrow is going to be a nightmare with 5 stages, but it was awesome stopping and talking the past 2 days with people. Bed time.

WE'RE BACK!!!! It's time to spend 5 days in downtown Baltimore, sleeping little, making questionable decisions, pretending that we are younger than we are, and hanging out with our international metal family. I hope I make it to all stages all days... We shall see.

It's hard to believe that it's already been a whole decade since Kevord started doing these shows. The craziest thing is how many bands that he booked right before they blew up. He's got a knack for picking great bands.

It was an absolutely awesome night. Everything came together perfect. I was thinking at the show that there is going to be a new generation of kids, going to shows at the Flight/Breakaway who are going to see this as the best time of their lives. You are very lucky to grow up with a venue like this one.
