Best show the band ever played?

Our best show would probably have to be when we opened for Story of the Year and Paramore. We are all fans of those bands and to share the stage with them was unbelievable. Plus, the guys in SOTY let us hang with them on there bus for a while...it was great.

Worst show the band ever played?

We don't believe in a bad show. We take every show as a learning experience and learn from it.

Anything else you would like our readers to know about the band?

We take our music very seriously and love what we do. Our live shows are very high in energy and are definitely something to see. So if you have the chance to come to a show it will definitely be something you won't forget .And for those of you who have made it to our shows, we thank you and hope to see you at more. Thank you for your time... we love you all!!
