WHOA, I never ment to brag....

Well, maybe I did.

But I have pretty exciting news. I'm probably going to the Sleeping With Giants tour. I'm pretty stoked about it because I could see The Academy Is..., Sherwood, Armor For Sleep, and The Rocket Summer.

I love The Academy Is... and Sherwood. I have heard ONE song by Armor For Sleep. Count it, one. And I have never heard a song by The Rocket Summer. So, yeah. I better change that before I go.

I *might* also go to a Maroon 5 concert with my mom and my friend Allie. We were talking about it today and than she bursts out saying "Ohhhh my lanta, I have tickets to that concert". Sooo, we're trying to coordinate where we get tickets. That will be fun.

P.S. I wonder who did that artwork for the tour poster. I really like it. Credit goes to The Academy Is...'s MySpace page. If anyone from the TAI camp wants me to take it off, just say so. I will.

MTV Video Music Awards

I was watching TRL (WHY do I still watch that show?) A couple minutes ago and I found found out the nominees for best group (In the order on the TV screen):

Fart Out Boy (No, that's not a typo. I just find it amusing)
Gym Class Heroes
Linkin Park
Maroon 5
The White Stripes


I'm sorry, but there is no contest. The White Stripes are the most talented, original, inventive band out of this list. It's like comparing Chris Brown to Prince. No contest. Yes, I like Gym Class Heroes, Maroon 5, and sometimes even Fart Out Boy, but come onnnnn. It's the fucking White Stripes! They win hands down.

One more rant. Why is MTV still called Music Television? They only have ONE music show on there, and it's a crappy one, that focuses on pop music. SERIOUSLY. Fuse is way better.

The lyrics to this song kind of… I don’t know. Spoke to my soul. I love the melody. It’s so soft and melancholy. I really hate Grey's Anatomy though.

11. Broken Heart

And people call this band emo. Dude, most people’s definition of emo is fucked. I would classify this as POP. Maybe a tad bit of punk. Emo is SUCH a vague term. People call My Chemical Romance, HelloGoodbye, Fall Out Boy, and Paramore emo. All of those bands are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT! I always thought emo was dark and/or depressing. Like Damien Rice or Death Cab For Cutie. Damn.

14. Island
The Starting Line
