Birthday Bash XIV kicked TOTAL ASS!!!  I got to meet a lot of great Planet listeners as well as killer musicians!  Right as I arrived, we did a meet and greet with one of my personal favorite bands, SKILLET!

About an hour later we also got to do an meet and greet with the mighty FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH!

Shortly thereafter it was time to get the show started as Paige and I took to the stage to introduce ROYAL BLISS whose bassist turns out to be good friends with my best friend Kenny who now lives in ATL!

Once ROYAL BLISS started, I made my way back to the Planet tent to meet some P1s as they were making their way into the show.

Not long after I had to go meet Tessa at my Aunt Pat’s house to get her to the show being I had her ticket and she is from out of town.  We went back to the Planet tent for a bit while FUEL played then made our way back to the VIP tent and met up with some of our mutual friends.

From that point on, it was a constant back and forth from going backstage to announce DROWNING POOL with Dex to the Planet tent and back to the VIP tent and then again backstage to announce SKILLET with The Rise Guys!

Once SKILLET took the stage, I made sure Tessa and I went out into the crowd to watch SKILLET kill it as they always do!  I know for a fact that many P1s became diehard Panheads that night!

After SKILLET’s set was over, it was time to hit the stage one last time with the rest of the crew to make the final announcements for the night and introduce FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH!!!

Needless to say, sleep was not easy to come by that night and my voice was a bit rough on air yesterday!
