Exciting Weekend
Hometown shows are always special. Our friends and family and oldest fans are all in the audience and therefore we’re motivated to try just a little bit harder. Irvine Meadows Amphitheater (Verizon now) is a place where I have quite a history. I grew up in Irvine (this is in Orange County a few miles south of Anaheim) and when I was 16 years old I got a job there working in the concession stands. I worked there every summer for about 4 or 5 years, it was great because I loved music and I got in to all the shows free (after I got off work). It’s a big memory for me and it’s literally a dream come true to play there. So this weekend is going to be a big deal for me, and also of course for the rest of the band. See you there!
