So I was asleep one morning and I got a Bandsintown update that said Title Fight is coming to Birmingham. I called my cousin and we made plans to go. When the day came I was pretty stoked. I picked up my cousin and we went to Birmingham. The show was at a venue called The Forge. I had never been there before, but from what I could tell, it was in a pretty old building with uneven, concrete floors. We got there shortly before the doors opened and I talked to several people that I knew from previous shows. There were three bands playing: Single Mothers, Pianos Becomes The Teeth, and Title Fight. The first was Single Mothers were really good. They had a good number of fans there. Of course, I had never heard of them but I really liked them. Their singer did some really cool jumps. For me, the bands that move around and do things like that are always the most memorable. The next band was Pianos Becomes The Teeth. I had heard of them because they are always in Alternative Press. I really liked them. They had a good bit of fans there too and they were really involved. Then it was time for Title Fight. I was really stoked for them. Somehow, I ended up in the front of the crowd. Little did I know that was a bad mistake. When the band walked on stage and played the first note of the first song, there was and instant surge forward and the next thing I knew, I was pushing people off of me left, right, and over-head. Not even halfway through the first song this huge guy flies over me and then proceeds to push my glasses into my face when he tries to jump off the stage. I caught my glasses before they flew off my face and I jumped on stage to save myself from the fury that was about to take over. There were already other people on stage so I did not feel so bad. When I got on stage, it was not much better because people would crowd surf and walk around side stage and jump back into the crowd. Eventually I found my way to the back and I remained there for the rest of the show. Even though my time on stage was short lived, it was one of the best experiences I have ever had at a show, because it was so much fun and there was so much energy in that tiny room. I would definitely go back to that venue just to see Title Fight again.
