Here are some instagram-snaps of Sam McTrusty that I took over the weekend. The full set is on Flickr.
This video of McTrusty stealing my flag is the best thing I found on the internet today.
I've been to hundreds, and hundreds of shows and they all made me feel a certain way but nothing will ever feel any better than this. This was, hands down, one of my favourite live music experiences of all time. Ever. To hear 2000 people yell along every word to one of the most beautiful songs ever is just something else.
Going to Scotland to attend a Twin Atlantic show has been a dream of mine for years now and it finally came true this weekend. Not quite the setlist I'd hoped for but the band smashed it, absolutely amazing. Would have loved to hear Wonder Sleeps but ah well... Crash Land made up for that a lot. Insane to hear 2000 people yell back every word. Lovely to know that they knew I was there too. Not that that's important, but still lovely anyways. Also quite surreal to attend a show with people I've met through Twin. Hoping to be able to do this again very soon. Now time for the Europe dates, counting down.
I went to see a thing.
Back in 2011, Sam McTrusty once drew me a thing. He then shoved it in my face and insisted I would take it home with me. To see your favourite band play a show for not even fifteen people was quite surreal. That show is still my favourite show I've seen - Wonder Sleeps, What Is Light, John Wayne, Lightspeed, Caribbean War Syndrome, Audience and Audio and Old Grey Face were on that setlist.
It was then that I got my A Guidance From Colour EP signed - when Sam got hysterical and couldn't stop talking about how rad it was that someone from overseas owned a copy. That was also the show were he called me an idiot for going to their concert a day before my final exams ever and kept telling me to get home safe. It was when Craig still had a moustache... Haha.
Last time I saw them was january 2012, that one time where I made Sam cry. Ha. Where they played a show for not even thirty people... On Thursday, I'll be flying out to Glasgow to see them play two sold out shows in the Barrowlands and I'm extremely excited. A bit nervous, too, because it's been so long and that's a bit scary. Knowing that there will be over two thousand people singing along to their songs instead of twenty people already gives me goosebumps and I will probably cry while seeing that in real life. I'm seeing this dumb band four times in the next four weeks and I will get to photograph them on my last show, which has been a dream of mine and is a perfect ending to this little adventure.
I'll be tagging everything related to this whole thing #twintrip, so if you'd like to follow my travel-things, you can. Haha.
Here's to a month full of Twin Atlantic. I am ready.
