Fan Recaps and Comments:

Waymu

This was the first TMBG show I went to. We ended up in the VIP balcony to the right of the stage thanks to my sister being friends with some people that worked at the venue. It was a great view of the band.

At the time of this show, I hadn't yet started calling TMBG my favorite band. In fact, I only had a few songs of theirs on my computer from various albums, so I only knew a fraction of a percent of their material. This show was definitely a good introduction to their other stuff, especially the Avatars. I remember my sister and I were just absolutely confused the entire time. I wish I had filmed this part because it was nothing like anything I had ever seen before.

Looking back it's also pretty neat because so many of my friends that I've made over the past year and a half through the TMBG community were at this show, and at the time I didn't even know any of them existed.
