Nightwish!!! (Warning: Fangirly)
I repeat again, if you don't like Nightwish or are annoyed with fangirly posts, skip this. You have been warned. :P
So yesterday's show was pretty amazing. When I think about it again it all seems quite unreal: I SAW THEM IN PERSON AND EVEN UPCLOSE!!!!! Ok, I know NW isn't what it was anymore, and isn't even metal anymore, but it still is my favorite band, so I was pretty squeaky all evening and a good part of the day Aaaand!!! I was close to Tuomas! *drools plus squeeeeee!!!!!* All the songs were pretty well done (honestly people, stop complaining about Anette. Ok she's not opera and not as good as Tarja... but hey when you compare singers voice to voice, they all sound bad when you compare them to Tarja, so give Anette a break! She's doing the songs her way, adapting them to her vocal style, with a lot of originality) I also really liked the contact the band had with the audiance (and it was really cool to hear Anette speak some French :)) The crowd was really receptive (which means that, thank the Valar, I wasn't the only bouncing, screaming fan around :P), which was probabbly helped by Iced Earth's previous performance, which was also really
So I had a really awesome night!
Yesterday was also the time in which I was supposed to turn my mom into a metalhead (none of my friends are into metal, so she agreed to go with me). But I think the experience traumatized my poor mother. :P I kind of *ahem* forgot, that bringing a 57 year old into the moshpit isn't a very good idea. :P oops.... :P But it wasn't that bad really and the Nightwish part of the evening was really quiet moshing wise, but she says she had headaches all day due to the music and also felt sick. So I guess I'll have to pick another victim next time I got to a concert. :P

The Internet is also back! And about time too, I missed watching anime :P
And I'm also staring to work full time starting monday (well today I guess, because today and tomorrow count in my 5 day week) and I have thursday and friday off! So this is pretty cool. I'll be quite busy though but who caaares??? Nothing's as bad as essay wirting. :P
