As 2025 began, Nate and I put our heads together. Pastor’s, the small ME-based DIY venue would come back, stronger than ever. Despite the hurdles and roadblocks that were thrown our way, the space thrived. With each show the turnout grew, breathing life into the garage, and stoking a fire in the minds of the Pastor’s crew. How big could the shows get?

On October 19th, 2024, the second installment of Pastor’s went down and ended in a resounding success. On May 8th, 2024, the idea of Pastor’s was born. In this doc, you'll see how we got from Point A to Point B and how well that night in October went.
