I'm Mike. You may remember me from such films as:
HELP!: Stuck in the Holiday Inn Elevator and YIKES!: Drunken, Awkward Conversations with Todd C.

I'm from Washington, DC by way of South Dakota. This'll be my second Fest. If you run into me during a set I'll probably put my arm around you and try to make you sing along with me. Let's drink some beers and have some fun!

Hey I'm Jason.

This is my fourth Fest and every year gets better... Strangley I'm not as excited as I was last year... not really sure why but I'm sure that will change soon when my playlists go entirely Fest 8 content. I like the heavier bands so plan to see me at market st, 1982 and the atlantic.

I'm going alone and probably gonna need roomates.. I'm a nice guy and will gladly show any new kids around, get a bite or have a pint with you!

Just typing this is making me more stoked!!

and may I recommend look out for house shows and drink lots of water!

My name is Josh. I live in Hattiesburg, MS! I don't have a flickr account or anything so I can't post a picture, but I have FACEBOOK. Let's be friends:

http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1099313321.

I also live in a house that has house shows a lot, if you're in a band and want a show on the way back from Fest, hit us up:

http://www.myspace.com/1126house.

This is my third Fest in a row, and it's the best part of my year.

I didn't meet anyone from the board last year, but I plan to change all that this year. Buy me a beer and I'll probably buy you one back. I'm a pretty cool dude, promise.
