are you even breathing? 'cause my breath is gone

november 27th 2011 was my 27th birthday. i think they call that a golden birthday right? same day/same age. it will never come again. that's besides the point. the only reason i bring that up is because that night i went back in time and saw brand new play in long island. their opening act was this long haired grunge looking band that was way too loud for the opening act. it was almost intolerable. a few weeks later i go on to hear a band called o'brother. they instantly reminded me of silverchair - which for what it's worth i will always love frog stomp. i only realize a few minutes into it that i've seen these guys. i know exactly where i saw them...at the brand new show! it's amazing how a band can sound like complete shit when foreign to your ears and in a venue that isn't particularly skilled in audio quality. their album doesn't sound like shit...far from it actually.
