Happy Birthday to Mike Hollins.  He is the owner, founder, and shipping department behind TDR Records.

Mike and I met 12 years ago, in Freshman year of High School.  He invited me to take his bus home, and go see a show in his friend’s basement.  He was one of the first people who reached out to me in High School, and I can honestly say my life wouldn’t have been the same without him.

We’ve lived together, handed out fliers at hundreds of shows, and driven thousands of miles.  I couldn’t think of another person I could have spent so much time with, and not wanted to kill them. 

He’s an amazing businessman, and a great friend.  Happy Birthday Mike.  Here’s to you.
