FEST 23 was a blast. The sense of community provides a much needed reset this time of year. Refreshed. Sorting thru all of our clips. @thefestfl.bsky.social youtu.be/OHUqvtSANIA?...

Niche post- @thefestfl.bsky.social joke but If Gainesville was in England

i like their old band name better @twiabp.bsky.social @thefestfl.bsky.social #fest23

Home from tour. Thank you everyone who came to our first @thefestfl.bsky.social set or any of the dates. This was our longest tour to date + our first package tour, and seeing people in states we’ve never played sing along made it feel like all the grinding has been worth it.

We talked to a bunch of bands about @thefestfl.bsky.social -- which, of course, just wrapped up this past weekend.

happiness is chemical thank you so much @thefestfl.bsky.social for such a wonderful experience he'll yeah br'th'r

I love @thefestfl.bsky.social very much, so glad we got to play again

I’m still processing the magnitude of @thefestfl.bsky.social this weekend (and especially finally getting to perform at FEST Wrestling). The short version is that it was all awesome and—at the risk of excessive earnestness—really special to me. Thank you to everyone.

@thefestfl.bsky.social is cool because there's just all this good nice energy concentrated in a few blocks of a college town. Just good vibes and good people listening to good music. The outside world sucks shit but it doesn't suck within these venues.

off work, heading to LAX, let’s fuckin go @thefestfl.bsky.social youtu.be/4cYq7EPabTg?...

It’s finally here! We’ve arrived in Gainesville for @thefestfl.bsky.social and it feels so good to be back. Some of Lauren’s picks for the weekend are Dead To Me, Gouge Away, and Dillinger Four. We can’t wait to hang and catch some rad bands this weekend!
