YOUTHFEST
First off we would like to give a big thanks to Fred Bates and all those on the staff of YouthFest for making this such a wonderful concert. As many of you already know the concert was great and our home town of Louisville has the best fans in the world. We had a great time talking to all the fans and playing the jousting games with you guys. Of course we went undefeated in all events but we had some tough competition. Oh, and while I'm thinking about it BRIDE, the challenge still stands in the Gladiator competition.
Anyway I have to tell you guys about our friends the Insyders. They liked our show so much they decided to do some feats of their own. Being the headliner for the night they took the time to round up Styrofoam and cardboard to make cardboard feats to destroy. Luckily they did not get hurt and I think their feats of cardboard and Styrofoam really added to their performance. So if you guys see the Insyders be sure to tell them Lucent said hi. You guys are the best, thanks goes to Bride, The Insyders, Chasing Furies and our good friends at YouthFest.
On a final note YouthFest will be doing an auction soon to help raise money for next years event. They have asked us to donate some concrete for them to sell with other music items. If you would like to place a bid you can contact YouthFest at yfevents.com or Fred Bates at 502-291-0093.
