The Maine was a band I discovered very early in their career, when most of my time was spent on the internet scouring for new music. I bought their EP The Way We Talk, and a poster that came with it hung on my childhood bedroom walls for many years. A few months after the album was released, they performed at the Trocadero Upstairs in Philadelphia on March 20th, 2008 with The Secret Handshake, Danger Radio, Powerspace, and Automatic Loveletter. Seeing bands at the upstairs portion of the Troc was always special. The venue was so small, normally hosting bands before they had much success. So small that the band would brush past you on the way to the restrooms or bar. So small that the people making all the music that you revered, were standing there just in front of you.
