I Live!

Forgive me, readers, for I have strayed. It's been 23 days since my last blog entry...

(C'mon now, that was pretty clever.)
(Not that I have a legitimate following, but still.)

Elbow. Was. AMAZING. No, that does the experience absolutely no justice. This chick can't properly put into words how great it was. Try to take from that an understanding of how overfilled my heart was that night, and still is, when reviewing pictures and memories that were obtained from said show.

John Grant was also fantastic. (He toured with Elbow.) I've been listening to him quite a bit lately. I hope that this tour heightens both his and Elbow's popularity so they get booked for more shows in the future. And I don't mean another 3-4 years from now, but more like yearly or, at most, every two years.

I should have taken note of how many "likes" each of them had on Facebook so I could compare it to the amount they have after the tour. Speaking of which, it appears that tonight it their last tour date. COME BACK SOON!!!

So, I mentioned before how Nico Vega covered Nancy Sinatra's "Bang Bang (Baby Shot Me Down)" and how I liked Sinatra's better... Well... That's changed. I love the cover. Here's a video:



And after watching the vid, I had to watch the Bonnie & Clyde movie that the song was recorded for. I enjoyed it. It's a very intriguing story. But I don't think they portrayed Bonnie the best. While stories vary, word is that she never killed anyone.

Also... I'm into Aja Volkman. Screw you, leadsingerofImagineDragonsdude. (Husband.)

This past weekend was pretty fun. Went to a local (small) Rocky Horror show and spent time with a mix of friends and previously unknown people. Trekked to the town cabaret and saw a drag show. (BTW... After drinking Guinness on tap during my concert trip and drinking it by bottle during the Rocky Horror show... I realized they don't even compare and am now searching for a place close by that has it on tap. Also, after drinking two pints of it on tap, I walked the 1/2 block to my hostel room, laid down to take a nap - sober - and woke up drunk. Curious.) 

Alright. Perhaps I won't wait so long for my next entry. Til then, take care. And...
