I wanted to get my Street Scene pictures up because they were in demand, but I would be remiss if I didn't write about how great Friday night was, too. It was Cullen Hendrix's 30th birthday. The night started out at his home with a spread of apps, beer and wine, and a gathering of his friends. Then we all headed to the Tower Bar for the melt your face off rock of Planes Mistaken For Stars, Kingdom Of Magic, and Get Your Death On.
My pictures are actually in reverse order of the night but I'm lacking the patience to put them in chronological order, but you can get the general feel for the night from all of them. It was a great time and it was so nice of Cullen to do a ticket buyout for his party revelers. And as it goes at the Tower, the cheap drinks were flowing and even for the huge crowd, there was never any crazy wait to get served. Man, I love that place.

I really have nothing to say about the bands that the pictures don't already say for themselves. There was a funny moment in the early part of the night where the bar wanted Cullen to make sure the bands knew that they couldn't play too loud. Ha. What does that even mean for bands like this in a venue like this? Well, not much, but I was glad to have my earplugs or my ears would've bled. It was loud, it was heavy, it was mind blowing. The energy was huge both from the bands and from the crowd.
It made me glad that the rain came in the morning so I could stall and get to Street Scene at a more leisurely time than I'd planned. Huge thanks to Cullen and Sarah for opening your home and for being awesome hosts; couldn't have asked for a better way to roll into the weekend.
