My first time seeing Thursday live; one of my all-time favorite bands, even though at the time I'd still only heard a handful of their songs at the time (I was super young and grew up in the middle of nowhere, gonna use that as my excuse).
I remember sneaking my crappy ancient point-and-shoot into this show and trying to snap photos without the guards noticing. Additionally, I remember Thursday putting on a HELL of a show, and specifically remember them playing "M. Shepard" -- a song I had never heard before at the time -- and it actually sending chills down my spine at how incredible their performance of that particular song. This show was close to half my life ago and is what ignited my still active fanboy obsession with Thursday.
I remember the openers being fantastic as well, despite being unfamiliar with their work.
I was there for Poison the Well and remember that, despite how excited I was for them, even then I recognized their lackluster performance. Then again, I was obsessed with their album "The Opposite of December" and I believe they only played one song off of it, so I may have a bit of a bias.
