I was at a show for this exact year in Portland, OR for Thrice, Thursday and Coheed And Cambria, one of the best shows I’ve ever been to, Thrice playing Artist in the Ambulance, Thursday playing War All The Time, and Coheed doing an acoustic set of In Keeping Secrets, due to a illness from a member, but man, LEGENDARY show! Blew my 16 year old mind. Changed my life. 37 now, still my favorite band of all time. Thrice is the fuckin best.
They were pretty damn big around this time lol but yeah, they absolutely could have been an arena level band if Island believed in them and the same goes for Thursday possibly even more so
