Battle of the Bands

First, some background info:

Before the program, audience members were instructed not to "mosh, grind, or behave inappropriately." Fair enough; we'd expect nothing less than good, clean fun from a BYU event. Yet, after the first energetic song of the evening, audience members were then instructed to "please don't jump, but be energetic." Um...yah. Apparently, at BYU, even Battle of the Bands is a reverent event. So that's why people are pretty much just standing around in these videos.

This was held in the Smith Fieldhouse...a very large gymnasium with the accoustics you would expect from a very large gymnasium. And the sound guy doesn't hold a candle to Dave, who probably could have made do with very-large-gymnasium accoustics and actually probably has done just that at least once or twice. (Which now concludes my shout-out to my bro-in-law the sound genius.)

Also, I'm on the floor trying to be energetic while keeping my feet firmly planted on the court. This was Mom's first experience with my camera and she apologizes for everything. In fact, if you'd like to return the videos, she saved the receipts. ;) Just kidding, Mom. Thanks for taking these and letting me be in the crowd!

And now on to the show!
