Over The Top Launch Party!
Final Fantasy, Akron/Family, Great Lake Swimmers at the Great Hall
Photos/clips weren't that great because yesterday was all about the music, definitely. Here they are anyway:
Tony Dekker has a voice that makes me stop, and pay attention to what he's singing. Hearing his voice resonate through the Great Hall was beautiful and haunting at the same time. I didn't take many GLS photos because I just wanted to listen dammit.
HOLY SHIT. AKRON/FAMILY. WOW. That's all I can say about Akron/Family's set. HOOOOOOOOOOOOOLY SHITWOW. Ask me about it in a week, maybe by then I can explain what I witnessed, maybe.
Final Fantasy with the St.Kitts String Quartet again! + his father's harpsichord. Wonderful set, they all made me want to pick up the violin again, I want to learn how to create beauty like that. Also, Laura Barrett+"Robot Ponies"(!!!!) was a very pleasant surprise during the encore!
Yay!!!

Akron/Family were too holyshitwowfreakouttimeforlisawoooow to film. My camera probably would've exploded, I'm sure.
Excitement for this year's Over The Top line-up has grown tenfold after yesterday, I can't wait!!!
TEAMEARLIESFOREVER because they work and are funtimes. Bring on TEAMBSS. BRING. IT. (in. shifts.)
Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven stencil. I'm unsure of where to place this image on a shirt (center, top-left/right, bottom-left/right????) so I went ahead with a test canvas (I like testing things out x 84 'cause I'm a tedious perfectionist), which turned out alright. It's painted silver, but it looks like I stenciled on duct-tape.
