Happy Birthday OctavariusOne year ago today at 5pm, we met upstairs at  Mullen’s for our first rehearsal as Octavarius.

Since then we’ve done 30 shows around Chicago, made a bevy of short films, had over 1200 people listen to our podcast, and had more fun than we thought possible.

I wish I could say we did it all on our own, but that couldn’t be more wrong.

We owe this past year to you, the amazing people who have supported us the past 365 days.

Every show you’ve seen, every post you’ve read, every comment, every tweet and Facebook comment, and email reply, means the world to us, and we do our best to make our silly things return the favor.

Did you have a favorite Octavarius post, show, thing from year one (wink)? Let us know in the comments so we can do more stuff like it for year two?
