Stiles Files

I feel like I got to so many shows anymore, I’ve become jaded, but seeing Yellowcard last night really made me feel again. I can’t remember the last show that literally gave me chills, almost brought me to tears and made me just lose myself in the music. All I could think about was the last time I saw Yellowcard. I was 18 and they were co-headlining with Something Corporate, one of my favorite tours ever. I got there super early and was front and center, crushed at the barricade.  As I watched last night up from VIP, the spot where I always thought I wanted to be, I couldn’t help but be jealous of the girl crushed against the barricade. I wanted to jump in the vicious circle pit and crowd surf to the front. Getting older sucks but that’s why I still listen to all my old favorite bands and live for these nostalgic moments that bring me such joy. So for that, I have to say thank you to Yellowcard, it was so great to feel again. 

Oh and by the way, i was one of the few people actually singing this song and it is the absolute best.
