Rockquest!!!!

What a night!!!!


Lastnight was Smokefree Wanganui Rockquest, as you probably know. The venue was the Wanganui Opera House:

Our first song didn't go so well, but it was enough to get us into the Top 8. In the 8pm show, we went hundy as!!! Ripped up in our songs, it was an energetic as show! The crowd were loving it, and joined in the sways and singing. We went hard as, and had so much fun onstage!!!!! Unfortuntly we didn't end up winning, but we did win an award for the best lyrics! It was a great night, here's some moooooore pictures:Jamming in the van beforehand:

Watming up, (Nate headbanging in the carpark) :D

Haha, at the start of our 2nd song, Love Is More Than This, Nate's drumstick snapped in half due to him playing hard as :D He carried on playing with the end he was still holding onto, then casually bent down whilst playing one-handed, dropped the smaller half of the stick and picked up the slightly longer half that had landed on the floor beside him, and kept playing the whole time! Barely anyone even noticed it! He managed to keep up the big rolls and intense drumming, despite only using one and a half drumsticks. It was an epic move, here's the drumstick he was playing with:

Hahah legend. Here's one of the other bands:

A bit of the crowd: (notice the "Mayday" banner? Thanks Tania and Rachel!!)Thanks for your support guys, we had an awesome night!!!!
