I was at the Tori Amos concert tonight here in D.C. and had an absolutely wonderful time. It was one of the best Tori shows that I've been to - and I've been going for 10 years now. It felt like Tori was settling in to her home area and she was already comfortable here and bantering a bit and giving her all.
She brought a 4-piece string ensemble ( Read more... )

Have I really been in Washington D.C. for a year now?! How has it been so long since I've returned from Australia?! Have I really been back in the U.S. this long?! It kind of makes me want to cry; I really want to leave the country again! My finances say otherwise for the time but it will happen again; I will make it happen again!

All I have to do ( Read more... )

I had to bail on I ♥ Industrial, a goth event up in Philly, last night because my shoulder (while better) is still acting up. I was also debating on trying to make Spellbound here in D.C. but my shoulder still twinges randomly when I move my neck or shoulder the wrong way, though it seems to be on the mend. And really, part of the reason I wanted ( Read more... )

First off, before I say anything else, I have to post a link. THIS. Apparently I made such a good impression on the food truck guy that he posted online looking for me. Made me laugh so hard in an oddly appreciative but bemused kind of way.
And yeah, what the heck, I totally responded back to the post.
Looking forward, I feel that autumn will pass me ( Read more... )

Bzzzzz.
Went to the amazingly awesome VNV Nation show up in L.A. and had a wonderful time! It was such a great show and I got to hear so many great songs like Beloved, Dark Angel, Chrome, Nemesis, Homeward, Illusion, Further, etc. Such an awesome show!! Ronan was such high energy and Mark did his usual thing. I was so happy that I had a chance to ( Read more... )

Reformation 01 is now on pre-sale to come out in mid-May.
Also, I am dead tired. I couldn't sleep. It's too bloody bright out! So I'll give myself maybe three hours of fitful sleep at most last night - er, this morning. Ugh. I feel dead.
And now shower time and then hanami party at Osaka castle. But maybe not too much drinking though.... Well, there ( Read more... )

VNV NATION IS PLAYING AT DAS BUNKER AGAIN!!! In early October! Why am I not in L.A. again?!! WHY?!!!!!!!!
My favorite band is playing at my favorite club and I am not there!!!
Ok, /emo rant.

I had a lot of fun at the VNV Nation concert last night even though I went to it by myself (the first time I've done this!!). I figured instead of buying a second ticket (which I always do) and then scrounging around to find someone to go with me I'll use the money to buy a shirt - which I did - as well as a hoodie which I will definitely bring ( Read more... )

Have I ever mentioned how bloody awesome this band is?!!! I love them so much!!

VNV Nation at Coachella was damn near brilliant but I say this from a fangirl perspective so I could be wrong.
The set consisted of all the well known and beloved (haha) songs that many people knew the lyrics to (especially Beloved and Dark Angel). I was lucky enough to squeeze my way to the front of the baracade to rock out and then got the set ( Read more... )
