Banned in Canandaigua

Here is a story for all of you. We get to the venue and start loading in. Tons of high school kids start pouring in and the first couple of bands play. We go on and blast our way through the set, but no one seems to care too much. The next band after Run Riot is a local beatdown band. As we watch this joke of a band, we notice the crowd getting very violent. Half way through their set some random jock goes straight into the pit swinging. He starts hitting people who are simply watching the band. The jock was being super shady. On the last song, during the huge breakdown, the jock decides to mosh and hit a bunch of little girls 1/3 his size and some of our friends. Joel goes to stop him and tries to move him away from the girls and our friends. He then swings on Joel. Shaun then grabs the jock's arm and pushes him off Joel, out of the staging area, and throws him onto the entrance way. The jock gets punched, but nailed Shaun in the cheek. The fight is broken up. As Heads Held High goes on , Elliott told the crowd to stop hitting girls and be careful. The jock hears this and yells "Fuck You!" As soon as the jock says this Shaun run's towards him and starts hitting him. The second fight is broken up and everyone leaves. After Heads Held High's set, we hear a rumor of 50 kids waiting outside for us. We go out and no one is there. This is the second to last show. Holy fuck. Horrible beatdown bands beware of Run Riot. YOU FUCKS!!!!!
