The first time I heard Yellowcard was in middle school and the song was "Lights and Sounds". My friends really liked it, but I thought it was just ok.
Fast forward to about 5 years later when I was going through some dark times in community college, I decided to download their album Ocean Ave. I became hooked on that album. Lyrically I was able to connect to most of their songs and the music is both high in energy and sentimental.
Many nights have I fallen asleep to that album. I've also been listening to their recent stuff and they're pretty good. I've been listening to a lot of Southern Air. Last Sunday, I decided to check them out live. Emarosa and Memphis May Fire were openers for them.

| Emarosa. Pretty hardcore punk rock band. Never heard of them though |
 |
| Memphis May Fire. Also never heard of them, but they put on a pretty good show |
 |
| Moshers |
 |
| All of sudden another guitarist plays with the band |
 |
| He even gave the lead singer a piggy back ride |
 |
| Yellowcard! |
Pretty good show. The band really exposed to us their struggles. Ryan's (the lead singer's) wife is recovering from a back injury and Sean (the violinist) is battling with thyroid cancer and winning.
I sang my lungs out and left as a sweaty mess.
Fin.
