Black Kids had been on the road for nearly two years without more than a 5 day break.  The last time I had seen the band was at the Harvest of Hope Festival in St. Augustine, Florida.  At the time, the band had just flown in from London after playing a stadium show, sleeping about four hours after reaching Jacksonville and then taking the stage at HOH Fest. The band then left had to board another plane the next morning at 4am to play a few more festivals in Mexico.

This being their last show of tour and for the next six months, the band played a hometown show Freebird Live, to packed audience.

After the show I surprised the band with a bottle of champagne so they could toast to two years of successful touring.

Knowing how happy everyone was to be home, I decided to surprised the band with a bottle of champagne after the show, so they could toast to two years of successful touring.
