YeahYeahYeahs

now that i have a minute, i can post about how amazing the yeahyeahyeahs were at the fox theater in Pomona. before they came out you could feel the excitement building up within the audience and the anticipation for them to finally come on the stage.  their opening band was yacht, a band i never heard before that night and they were really good. it consisted of a guy and girl duo, Jona & Claire.  Jona jumped into the audience and danced with them while performing.  And during their closing song Claire came down to the audience and looked into everyones eyes and placed her hand on the heads of a few concert goers.  i am lucky to say that i was one of them.  their performance was great.  but nothing could top the yeahyeahyeahs.  they opened with heads will roll which got the crowd jumping. there wasn't even enough room to dance, people from the back were pushing forward causing all of us in the front to be crammed up next to each other like sardines.  Miss Karen O looked so cute in the outfit she was wearing and was all over the stage, it was hard to get a good snapshot of her.  they closed with cheated hearts where she came down to the audience and was only two feet away from me and handed my friend Monica the microphone.  Monica was so star struck she forgot to say something in the mic.  it was a great surprise to have her be so close.  after this me and Mon couldn't believe it.  it felt so unreal.  they came back out with an encore performance, and started with y control, which i went crazy for and everyone was jumping around. They also did an acoustic version of maps which was amazing cause throughout the whole show the audience would be singing with Karen but for maps everyone was in complete silence where all we heard was her lovely voice and and Nick Zinner playing the guitar.  it was definitely a great show, i wish i could go back and experience it over & over again.

hero worship

happy birthday mr tim burton!  51 never looked so good.  may many more years of brilliant film making come your way.  you're a true movie magician, an icon & one of my heroes.  

i wish

i wish i could just move out already...& live somewhere where i feel like myself & not trapped in a cage.  a place that no matter what mood i'm in, i'm still somewhat happy & content with life.  thinking about this now i can only think of a few places where i feel this way.  too bad everything that makes you happy cost so damn much :/

life through fish eye

i love fisheye cameras. the way the pictures come out when you get the film developed always excites me.  it's a whole other view of the world.  :)

The Flaming Lips

i have an other good show to add to my list.  last night the flaming lips played at The Fox Theater in Pomona .  it was amazing.  ghostland observatory opened for them & they were amazing as well.  their performance had an amazing light show, along with great music.  I had only heard a few songs from ghostland before the show, but after hearing some more of their songs i think their great!  nothing topped the flaming lips though.  when they first came on stage the lead singer Wayne was in a plastic bubble and floated on the stage over the audience, & I'm lucky to say that i was down their while it happened & got to be under the bubble with him in it.  they played all my favorite songs of theirs including: the yeah yeah yeah song, yoshimi battles the pink robots, she don't use jelly, & closed with my absolute favorite do you realize?  it was an incredible night and words cant express it.  this definitely falls under as one of my favorite shows.  if i could i could go back and relive the night all over, i would.  it still feels so surreal& i have to keep pinching myself to remember that it was real.  S-P-E-C-T-A-C-U-L-A-R!    

life or something like it

im feeling nostalgic right now. looking at old photos always does that to you<3
