: now, i'm not one to get excited about guavaween. in fact, in my 20 years of being in tampa, i've gone only once, maybe twice. i hate the drunken asses and all their tomfoolery. and i can't stand being around soooo many people... crowds make me claustrophobic, and most of those ybor people just make me plain sick. BUT, i was quite surpised to hear that Sevendust and Blindside are going to be on the bill this year. soooooo. i think i may be sacrificing the $10 just to see them play. maybe it will also be better this year, since i have a nice big boy to protect me from the monsters.... anyone else interested in going????? a group would be nice!!!! let me know.....
Would that be part of the refuge stage? probably not. But man, this has brought me back memories, like back in the day, I used to go the Refuge stage at Guavaween, I always used to see Yahoo playing there. Men, I remember the mosh pits there, on the brick streets of Ybor, like if you fell it wasn't like at the Refuge on a carpeted floor, oh, oh, on brick that really crapin' hurt. One time later on, I remember seeing Atomsmashers Named Suzie with Cliff playing there, think that particular time was in '97...and the more I think about it I remember praying for them and that show at the old Croossover, monday nights, anyone remember? ...and like yeah, I remember these girls praying too, I can't remember their names now, all I remember is they were related to Mark MDO, like his cousins or soemething? ....
Oh, yeah, and like Blindside, I remember seeing Blindside like 4 or 5 years last at the Refuge, and I remember seeing Ryan (Rhino) getting totally caught up in worship like only he can that night, .....men, there's a lot more I remember, like opening a flood gate and the waters of memories filling my brain, but that's enough, I just had to let that out so I can sleep; sorry.
