We started the month off than with 2 Anti-Flag shows intertwined with an instore and after show gig at New Noise! Then we totally fell in love with The Front Bottoms when they came to play instore and New Slang. We released their LP because we thought their music was brill and turns out they were totally rad dudes too! The Cribs came back to town to play 2 album release shows! Other memorable moments were most definitely Say Anything playing instore, Mystery Jets coming back to Kingston and The Menzingers' heartfelt speech about Banquet - aww!
