I went to go see Cancer Bats on Tuesday and I have to say that it was by far the most intimate and stellar show I have been too. They opened up for a band called Funeral For A Friend and when Cancer Bats came on stage, not many people knew them. I was one of the only guys singing along so the lead singer Liam would throw the mic in my face to sing along. It was the most fun I have had at a concert. I felt like it was just me and the band there. It was too cool. I met 3 out of the 4 band members after the show and we talked a bit and had a drink. They are truly the nicest guys and take the time to pose pictures and sign autographs. I bought their new album on vinyl at the merchandise table and got Liam (vocals) and Scott (guitar) to sign it. Then Scott was nice enough to go back stage with the record and get the other guys in the band to sign it. It was very unexpected but so kind of him. I had such a blast.
The lead act was Funeral For A Friend and with me knowing none of their songs, and Caitlin and I being not such fans of them, I decided to get my camera out of my bag and see if I could get some photos. I had no clue how to take photos of bands, with the lighting and all of that, so I don't think they turned out too great but I tried!
