I often skip reunions, but there was no way i was going to miss this.

Show was great, made it just in time (took us 4 1/2 hours because of the weather to drive down) to see MP, who fucking killed it.

I never got to see Absolution, but my first 4 shows Burn played. I always thought Burn was the best hardcore band live, well now i know why my older friends always said 'dude you should have seen Absolution'. I actually got a shiver down my spine at one point because the whole atmosphere reminded me of being a kid.

I loved that Gavin used the exact same guitar sound as their live recordings.

Show was a big part of an already awesome year.

I was there too.
ABSO was awesome.
I got to see them about 3 times growing up and the only slight drawback of this was the drummer getting lost a few times in some songs, but otherwise, they killed it! The show was packed too.

Mike it was good to see you. Yeah the only time I was mad about the drummer was when he got lost during Dead and Gone.
