The Anniversary, live from 2000

I am working on writing my "Best of 2000" post, and have been doing some Google research on the band The Anniversary. Well, I have always struggled to find much about them because their name is so generic. I finally found a great video of them in concert, from October 2000. I saw them a few months later at the 40 Watt in Athens, Georgia and this is exactly what the show was like based on my memory. The lighting on this video is terrible, but the sound is terrific considering the age. And there is a surprise about 10 minutes in: Matt Pryor of the Get Up Kids sings guest vocals. The two bands were touring together at the time.
