first day of the show, oh wow, we get to the show and we see a huge merch area and furnaces... we look around the merch i talk to a few kids and then we entire the show....first band to play was mercury switch they were alright....there singers a big asshole...i talked to him a few times in the hotel and he wasn;t bad but he gives off a huge asshole vibe...there music wasn;t bad...and then there over and i see silverstein...they were awsome, after that i go watch anither abnd i see the first pit of the day...they had to stop cause kids were knocking over the sound board. the band was alright pretty generic...then the band i was most looking forward to the first day. found dead hanging....very impressive. one of the guitar players is a bass player now....appreantly when keith was screaming he felt a sharp pain in the back of his head and he didn;t care he just kept going. after they played we went and saw the riff (a life once lost) they were really good kids went nuts for them...and they played and older song which was really good....after alol played we went and got food...we brought the canadians with us we went to wendys and it was good, then back to the show just in time for as i lay dying....really good everyone was really getting into them it was the second time seeing them and they were better this time. now i don't remeber what happened then cause as i lay dying played at 7:30 and i don;t remeber seeing anymore bands until anberlin played which was at 9:30.....but within those points of time...dooley locked the keys in the car and we had to call a locksmith....after anberlin hopesfall was on, they were real good me an charlie danced it up but there was to much for dancy parts soo we did what we could...it was fun...then we left and went back to the hotel to prepare for the party...we chilled and met so many nice people

now this is when we met the most amazing kids ever....Coma eternal and permanent breakdown

Coma eternal was this crazy kid who had no sense of right and wrong....the first words in the hotel were at 2 n the morning screaming i shit on the shit and throw them in the pool...he kept saying this for like an hour...he also dropped kicked every trash barrel he saw and he shit in the elevator and was kicking doors while people were sleeping...

Permanent breakdown was an awesome kid who moshed were ever he went...instead of walking he skanked and instead of staying still he did spink kicks and punches...he was insane...he owned every pit he went into...

then there was uncle wade he was in this band called earthin, the first night he was walking around the hotel drunk as piss and being just insane...imagine a human mupppet and that is this guy...he named dooley hickieeee and me nikki for some reason and he was really drunk and insisted on me drinking to...i didnt but i told him i would just to make him happy...

insane nut insane people not enough sleep....went to bed at 4 in the morning..

Day two of furnace fest...open with a the band with honor and a huge fucken pit...this day i was by myself alot...but i saw alot of good bands and bought soo much shit it was ridiculas.....i saw vaux avenged sevenfold and embrace today

then the red chord played for some reason i was really excited even though i have seen them a million times...soo i got up front and as soon as they started playing a huge pit opened it and it was nuts...during catalepsy i got on stage and hea walked to the middle of the crowd and got yanked down and my glasses broke cause some guy was trying to pick me up but while he was picking me up he stepped on my glasses i got a cut on my head and elbow from this...then i stood around the pit for awhile till dreaming in dog years...then during the chant at the end repeated the process only falling way shorter cause everyone pulled guy to the ground and with everyone else...it was a huge sing along "its not going be alright its not gunna be ok"

then mastodon played they were really really good...nuthing really memorable about there set but i enjoyed them alot...then i saw the band showbread..wow intense....think the locust refused the young idea and blink 182....ridiculas...then unearth played wow everyone went nuts...it sucked for me cause i was standing on a pa that was infront of a pa soo my write ear was taking in all the noise of drums guitar and bass....

hatebreed was next....i am not a fan of this bands music but there live performance was incredible but i was still standing on the pa thing and i did;t want to anymore soo i gt on stage ran across and headwalked down and it was the greatest fun ever....

ANDREW WK

it was a party....permanent breakdown planned a whole ting with all his friends were they were gunna wear girls unerwear or make there boxers into thongs and run around in those during andrew wk....before andrew wk played there was a massive bottle throwing war were one kid throw a bottle of piss on people...but then andrew wk started and permanent breakdown got in a barrel and surfed across the crowd in it...the circle pit was about 100 ft long and all the kids in thongs had an organized football game inside of the pit and they were also doing a human pyramaid and just being insane....i was on stage the whole time...it was ridiculas....soooooo muh fun
