There are so many more bands that aren’t on Spotify that I wish I could add on to this. You get the picture, though. All of the pride.

You can take the girl out of Long Island [music] but you can’t take the Long Island [music] out of the girl.

I went to my friend’s show today. They opened up for Vinnie from Brand New’s new side project. He and I bumped butts at one point. Although awesome, that’s not the point. The point is that getting straight back the kind of setting where everyone has an unsaid deep appreciation for the music that makes us proud is something I was very grateful to have done. Between that and the familiar faces, I was that much more content with where I decided I belong. I even forgot to mention that I got to shoot the friend’s band, too. They’re such talented dudes. I didn’t mean for this post to turn into an advertisement for them, but when you get the chance, definitely check out Along the Falls. If you’re into Brand New and that stuff. Really. Anyway, back to the point once again. Tonight was cool.
