Matt Sweeting is the guy who’s been boxing your records from No Idea for over 10 years. Part of his persistent involvement in the Gainesville scene. He makes magic happen in all kinds of ways by playing in bands (TUBERS, STRIKEFORCE DIABLO, ASSHOLE PARADE, UTILITY).
Matt set up shows for a long time, both the awesome shows and the “give a band a chance” shows, at both the Hardback Cafe and the Utility House before that. He also co-founded Wayward Council, which never would have happened without him.
… I’ve known Matt a long time, and I clearly remember him talking to me about the importance of people making the commitment to stay in a place over the long term in order to make things happen there …
