MARIANAS TRENCH DOWN WITH WEBSTER ILLSCARLET Brantford Hockeyfest Contest

Those2Girls Meet Marianas Trench

You may remember this video from a couple of summers ago.


Basically we stalked Marianas Trench at the first Brantford Hockeyfest to get a T-shirt signed by Marianas Trench band members and as you can see from the video it was a success!  To see all the fun we had that day you can see our pics from the first annual Brantford Hockeyfest
