ROCK ‘N’ BOWL, SPRING FLING and SKILLET
For those who have heard my poor, pathetic hoarse voice on the air this week, here’s why I sound so horrible:
Let’s begin by saying this was an incredibly fun-filled weekend starting with the Rock ‘N’ Bowl Friday night ushering in our month-long celebration of manhood, Test Fest. And let me proudly say that I am a TERRIBLE bowler! As a matter of fact, I didn’t hit a spare or strike the entire night! But it was fun as I made the usual fool out of myself!
Saturday was awesome as Upstate Unsigned invaded this year’s Spring Fling in downtown Spartanburg! Our stage was booked solid with seven killer local bands including PANACEA, AMPLIFYED, STATE OF KONFUSION, WHISKEY MOUNTAIN MACHINE, HEADSNAP, GHOST IN THE MACHINE and A VACANT SOUL! So, needless to say, I was screaming all day both on and off-stage! And, even though the sun rarely made an appearance, I managed to receive a good baking!
Sunday, I slept in having already had a great deal of excitement. Then I headed up to Charlotte to catch SKILLET, THOUSAND FOOT KRUTCH and DECYPHER DOWN at Cricket Arena and do a lot more screaming! Ali from Atlantic Records was there so she let me and Rebecca go backstage to hang and talk geek talk with SKILLET.
So, there you have it! My vocal cords are shot and I’m all out of vacation time and I don’t call in sick unless I’m like bleeding out of my eyes or something!
