There are a lot of people we have to thank for everything they’ve done for us these past two years, including publicists, promoters, management, bands, and fellow bloggers. We can’t possibly name you all, but you have all been so amazing to us. And then there’s of course all of you that read our site, like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter. We honestly can’t thank you enough. We wouldn’t exist without you.

To show our appreciation, we’re throwing a party, of course. Last year we threw a bands vs. blogs dodgeball event, but we knew we had to make this year even more interesting. This year we’re going to be doing bands vs. blogs capture the flag (with water guns). Everyone is welcome to come! Bands and bloggers, please let us know if you would like to participate. For more details and to RSVP, check out the Facebook event page.

Thanks again to all of you! We hope you come celebrate with us!

Cheers,
buying shots for bands
