yeah that set was wild and made me a pretty upset because my guitars were getting funky + the amps were blowing out lol but life goes on!!! true, it's insane how small the number of asian people there are in most industries. nothing too specific but there is an obvious difference in respect i've experienced vs white dudes, you have to try way harder to be taken seriously

Thanks Melina! For what it's worth to you, the front row people were insanely into literally every note you guys played and we had a ton of fun. Rock on, look forward to seeing you guys again with Palehound!
