A short clip from Akron/Family's set at the Hillside Festival in Guelph, Ontario. They are by far one of the best live bands I've ever seen! I wish that I would have taken more video, but I was too busy dancing - these guys rock live! This clip cuts off when this old guy jumped up on stage and wanted to crowd surf. The hippies and indie kids would have none of it, so instead he took a tambourine and joined the band for a bit.
Akron = love.

I went to see them on the Saturday I think but they didn't play because they couldn't cross the boarder. I just missed this set. I saw them a few years ago at the Over The Top Festival and really put on some a show. This clip sounds really different from what I recall but still enjoy. Thanks for putting it up with the story.

lol i love that you commented on the old guy! He totally made my weekend when he settled for the tamborine instead of moshing
