I once went through this really lame hard period in life. It sucked and it was emotionally painful. Through this time 3 bands helped me survive the annoyingness I was dealing with and made my long drives to work better. Rise Against was one of them. This CD was in my car for a really long time. I liked their stuff prior but this one just had what I needed to hear at the time.
In 2009 I got my first chance to see them. Then in 2011 I saw them twice. They announced their upcoming October show but because it's my birthday month I figured the hub may not want to go for the 4th time. My favorite morning radio guys were giving away meet n greet passes along with a camera to record the whole concert. Last week the hub came home and said "I need you to listen to this voice mail". It turned out to be a guy from the station saying the hub won the prize package. I was so happy I swear I almost cried!!!!! What a awesome way to start my birthday month! Yes I got to meet the band and they are some super awesome guys. It wasn't a meet n greet that had them at a table and them just signing stuff. They came out into a small room and we got to take pictures with them, have them sign our stuff and actually have a conversation with each band member. I got to talk to Tim (the singer) about their upcoming show in Costa Rica and the show they played a few days prior with Tom from RATM...ekkkk Love him!
These guys are fucking AMAZING! I love them and forever will!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tim signed my arm and it is now my newest tattoo. Yes Creepy fan status I know!!!
