Majorly Big Shame On Me for only seeing Olathia for the first time this past Sunday @ the 4th Annual Shotgun Bowl at The Beachland Ballroom and Tavern! I cannot express enough how amazing these people are, like should be signed by a national label amazing. They are a power thrash metal band comprised of some mega talented musicians; the lead singer, Chris E. Olathia has the voice of a lark and is seriously one of the most loved people in the music scene, that I have met, thus far.

She created the Shotgun Bowl to bring the together once a year for a majorly awesome 6 hour family friendly event, featuring 8 different bands, who rotate their performances between the ballroom and the tavern. There is a free compilation CD with music from all the performers given to those who attend, and it is such a beautiful display of the camaraderie and friendships between the bands in the metal scene. Many of the performers are in several different projects, everyone has the best time, and are, as one musician divulged, "here solely for the love of music, and the scene." Over the course of the day, every artist, and many of the fans, expressed their love and gratitude to Chris, "The Queen of the Scene" for her generosity, kindness, and passion for this stellar community. It was truly the best way to spend a Sunday Funday. Thank you, Chris, and my cohorts with Heavy on Cleveland , for such a wonderful time 🤘🖤🖤!

Stay tuned for more photo dumps in the upcoming days (there are still 7 bands left 😆🤘)
