Sigma Phi Fraternity
Ann Arbor, Michigan

Bands: The Big Wheelz, Presidio, and Leland

Back to Sigma Phi again for the end of the school year show! This was by far the best show we have played to date. The vibe from the crowd was absolutely explosive. A bunch of my friends from highschool showed up from across the state and partied with us all night. The Empire State Games show was earlier that night so we had alot of people from that show drift on over to the Phi for what some called "the aftershow party".

The Big Wheelz kicked off the show and laid down some melodic fast tempo punk rock for the Phi. These guys are great, my girlfriend kept asking me why they weren't big and famous. Good Question...

After the Big Wheelz, Stand To Reason took the stage and proceeded to give their best show yet. I think this is the first time I've seen people jumping and screaming at an indie/emo show.
