#honorbright

Last night was beyond incredible, it was the only time in my life I've been so happy and yet so sad at the same exact time. No matter who i see in my life or what incredible crowds I'm a part of, there will never be a show that will top last night. Every time I scroll through my ipod I will still stop at Honor Bright's name and reminisce on all of the amazing times this band has given me the chance to have. And more importantly than anything else, whenever I think of Honor Bright I will think of the friends I've made because of this band, some of the greatest friends I've ever had.I'm going to steal what Zak did now and tell you all how much you mean to me.

Liam- your stories are by far the greatest I have ever heard in my life and your random outbursts when we were on the road (including a variety of accents) put me to tears of laughter. You and Brittany are so adorable, I'm sure you will have an amazing future together. Thank you for always performing at 110% and making the show so great with your mic spins and perfect lyrics, I'll never forget any of it.

Tim- Well, believe it or not you have had more of an impact on my life than I've ever told you. Because of you I book shows. If you never asked me to get Lacerda a gig, I would have never became such good friends with them or even attempted to put a show together, so thank you to infinity and back for inspiring me to start booking. I don't know where I'd be or who my friends would be if I never did shows. Thank you for also always being great to your fans, you never had that "rock star persona" and you always treated everyone like family. Yours and Liam's willpower to be vegan also inspired me to become one myself. To finish this off, you and Sarah are the cutest couple I've ever seen in my life and two amazing people, I know you two will have lives filled with happiness. Thanks for everything, I'm sure I'll still see you in The Brilliant Light as much as possible.

Ryan- Oh Ryan, you are beyond hilarious. All of the pictures of you and Dr. Moody will never be forgotten, as well as all of our street team stickam sessions. Funk n Waffles with the flipping cat was probably the most glorious thing I've ever seen, and I'm sorry I doubted your cat flipping ability. You've always been super nice to everyone and we'll never forget that. I hope you continue to use your musical talent and I hope to see you on the stage soon, you belong there.

Curt- Who would have guessed that you grew up a couple towns away from me? Such a small world. Although I haven't seen your cousin in years, if I ever do I'll tell him you say hey :p Even though you never say much, I know how much you love the band and performing, it shows through everything. I also hope to see you on stage soon, you get so into your playing it's mindblowing and Syracuse needs that.

Tone- I don't know you as well as the others, but your all the time sarcasm will never be forgotten. You also belong on stage, hell, all of you do. You and Shawna have been together so long, I'm glad for you that you are finally getting married. You two both deserve it. Good luck in everything you do.

Amanda- Where do I start? Although you have been many hours, miles, and states away from me you have always been a fantastic friend and you have always been there for me. Thanks to you I now listen to Madina Lake and Go Radio all the time. Your love and appreciation for music is so unbelievable, you are the epitome of what a dedicated fan is. Every time we have hung out over the years has been so much fun, singing Otter Fights from state to state and just being happy to eat "normal food" from Great American. Seeing you cry last night was what honestly made me start to lose it, although the love in that room was overwhelming it hurts to think there will never be that group of familiar faces and friends singing back at Honor Bright again. I could go on for hours, so I'll stop it here. You have and always will be a great friend of mine and I can't wait to see you again.

Zak- When we met each other a couple years ago I never thought that you would be so close to me now. Although we only see each other at shows every few months, every time we are reunited it is epic and beyond hilarious. Your soul-less and ginger jokes never get old, and neither will that video from Massena. I hope that every year the night before your birthday we can go cosmic bowling and hug-attack you in the masses. Thanks for everything, you are truly an amazing person and we will be eating waffles together soon.

Jesika- We've been through a lot haven't we? There are almost too many memories to type out. I think it's incredible to think that you and Michael met through Honor Bright, who gets the chance to say that about their relationship? I love being able to see you so often and I'm glad we are getting closer again. I know that I will continue to see you and we will still remember all the shows, chats, and just funny times we've shared.

Sam- You are the most outspoken person I've ever gotten the chance to be around and I love you SO much for that. Every time we're together I can't stop laughing, whether it be from the hair ball, your cat being insane, or picking on the less fortunate of our species, it's always a blast with you. Since you barely live far away from me at all, expect a ginger in a box to appear at your door once in a while. You won't have to shower or get out of bed, don't worry :)

Kevin- You are one of the nicest people I have ever met in my life. You and Sam always make me die a little with the way you treat each other, ahaha. We are going to have to go to The Brilliant Light shows together, that is if you and Sam didn't die in that car accident on your way home, shiiiit. I will miss you always shoving into my back and screaming the lyrics at shows, I guess we will just hope for another band to be half as amazing as Honor Bright so we can go to their shows and not sit at the tables the whole time. See you soon! And this time let's not get Chinese because I will probably belch and scare everyone..

Tina- TEENIS, you are quite the character, WEIRD! We need to all cram into your living room again and search for vegan food. And how could I forget watch Andy Milonakis? We need to get on that soon. I'll miss randomly running into you at every show and you greeting me by you grabbing your boobs, ahaha, See you soon!

Sarah- Although we haven't really talked in forever, I miss you a whole bunch. Every show we have went to we both were singing our lungs out every time, that's something I will never forget. Come visit me and my ferrets soon :)

Scott- Even though we went to school together, I honestly don't think we would have became friends if it wasn't for Honor Bright. It's so weird to think that a band from 2 hours away could bring two kids in a small school so close. Thanks for always being such a great friend and we will still love The Brilliant Light and Go Radio together.
