La Dispute, in a basement

On April 2nd I drove out to Amherst MA to Dad City with my two pals Mark and Katie to see one of the greatest bands alive, La Dispute. that is not in opinion. yes they are one of the greatest bands alive. thinking this whole time that the show was in an actual venue, we pulled up to a house number 665 (neighbor of the beast) and followed through the front door and sat down with one of the guys living there and and talked over the show. Also met two really cool people who where sitting on the couch across from us. they where both photography students who had the same passion for la dispute as Mark, Katie, and myself. one of them was Dan, he is originally from NJ but came here for school. for about an hour we talked over the music scene in MA and how it differs depending on where you are in the state. and compared it to the NJ music scene. check out Dans photo work here at www.danbassini.com

eventually people started to show so we gathered into the basement.
end of the night, La Dispute played and gave everyone there fill. we stayed a little afterwards, picked up some tees and had some short talk with Jordan, the voice of La Dispute. seeing how genuine and nice the members of this group was. it gives a little more hope for music now.
