I went to see Story of the Year last night with Stretch Armstrong and Spoken, and I must say it was a great show. Spoken was received very well by the crowd, some people had come just to see Stretch, but Story of the Year owned the night. This was my first time seeing them away from both of our hometowns of Saint Louis, and the crowd was not any different, if not better than the Saint Louis crowd. They still have one of the best live performances I've ever seen, and if you're in the Ohio area you still have three days to check this tour out, And if you're lucky, the band that Adam(Bass)manages, may make an apperance, and they're probably going to be huge. They're called The Too Silent...

I just added a new review for Stretch Arm Strong - Free at Last, in stores now. This stellar release really suprised me, in a good way. Check it out.
