It's Blitz!

To say I am beyond stoked about the new Yeah Yeah Yeahs album coming out on my Birthday would be a bit of an understatement. I am in agreement with the person who just posted on the Lolla board that the yyys should play all three summer festivals this year and as of now they are playing 2 of 3 and of course the one they are not currently on the bill for is the one I am attending.

No Doubt is touring and I think that is beyond fun
however seeing them at the ACC does not appeal to me in the slightest
so I know getting tickers for this show will be a last minute decision for sure. The ACC is just so overpriced, so over done and the sound is hideous. If every show in Toronto were at the Molson Amp and Massey Hall I would be beyond ecstatic about. What I am not ecstatic about? Having to miss the MSTRKRFT show on the 9th as I have TWO exams that day, FML. THEY NEED TO START ANNOUNCING LOLLA BANDS LIKE YESTERDAY. Sara and I are going to see Bloc Party on the 14th, I usually try to make it out everytime they come to TO as they put on a great live show however Silent Alarm will still be the cd I most enjoy from them and I have a feeling we will only get like 3 songs off that album at the show.

Do not even get me started on this Coldplay Tour. My stress level is just a mess because of it AND my uncle is in Florida to make matters worse and he is my other half in getting tickets UGH.

RADIOHEAD should probably tour this summer
that would be lovely
I've seen them live three times
and yet I have never seen Karma Police live.
such a weird concept.

This summer I want to try to get out to as many DJ events as I can. They are a fun change from the usual shows that Sara and I attend. Sara is hopefully going to be coming down for S.C.E.N.E this year, I have not gone for the past few years so I think going back to it with someone who enjoyed their local music scene as much as I enjoyed mine will be wicked and it happens to be a known fact that St. Catharines is one of the best local music scenes in Ontario.

No word of a lie I just called home and left a message for my Mom asking if she was as upset as me about Steven Page leaving the BNL. This is why I love my family so so so much they have fully accepted and embraed my retarded music loving concert going ways. When she called back we fully discussed the band and how good of an actor Sean Penn is.

This is the best setlist I have seen in awhile
and as I just said to Sara
this makes me way to cry
