The Mass, second first show

The Mass played their first show on Sunday, March 11, 2001, in a tiny venue called The Attic off of Mission St.  They timidly handed out ear plugs, and then proceeded to rip the walls apart with a sound much bigger than they were at the time.  I remember Matt screaming vocals into a polished, silver, crooner mic on a stage so small that Matthew couldn't even fit with the rest of the band... It was one of the only nights The Mass ever performed their song Flu.  

"I'm siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick!!!!!"

For their second first show, they weren't quite so timid.

I've learned to never underestimate the fun I might have playing a drinking game led by Joe... :) especially if I can get someone else to do the drinking part for me.

And, it's so crazy to think that two years ago I gave my real phone number to the most gorgeous boy I could ever dream up... And, we just celebrated our two year anniversary.
