We Came As Romans – Cold Like War Tour @ The Blind Tiger 3/30/18
I almost didn’t go to this show because I had some traumatic events happen earlier that day; I had to put my dog down only a few hours before the show and that really took a toll on my mood. But, the music has helped me through some tough times so now it was time … Continue reading We Came As Romans – Cold Like War Tour @ The Blind Tiger 3/30/18
