I had a some time to take photos because one of my bands got sick and didnt preform. After taking these shots I swung back by the bus to drop off my camera and then went back to my stage, where the rain let up a bit. After a few min though it started pouring. Right at the beginning of Atack Atack’s set. The band and crowd didnt seem to mind and both went nuts. There was seriously steam coming up from the mosh pits. a very wet load out then followed and everything got packed up for the next day.

dirt field for a venue. I believe that’s attack attack on stage. circle pits created small tornados. Really hot and humid, the bands looked really beat after their 30 min sets.

A couple of shows back my monitor rack overheated in the 106 deg sun and stopped working. leaving me with three more bands that day and nothing but sidefills to give them.
