Blink 182 Concert

I know this is a little late. On Monday I went and saw Blink 182. I have been a fan of them since they're first or second album (Pre-Travis Barker). I remember when I went go their CD, The Dude Ranch. I played that CD over and over. Dammit was favorite as with most people. I was never able to see them in concert back then so imagine my surprise when they reunited. I wasn't sure if I should see them or not. In fact I even tweeted about it to see what other people thought. GO was the response from most. So I did just that. I'm so glad I was able to go. This was one of the BEST concerts I've ever been to. I had an awesome time! Travis, Tom and Mark rocked it!! They sang and performed their hearts out! All the past hits came out that night! Their encore was ridiculously good! Travis was air lifted above the stage all the while playing his drums. He was being tipped and turned, spinning above us...never missing a beat! He was Awesome! I was in awe of how freakin good he was. Then Tom and Mark came out...and of course they sang Dammit. I sang with them at the top of my lungs!! It was an amazing experience!

Vampires...my obsession

So you've all probably heard this before..."ever since I was a little girl I've been obsessed with Vampires"...but here it is again. Every book I could find, every movies I could watch, every TV show... I was totally consumed by vampire culture. I'm actually surprised my Dad didn't trip out. I'm sure he was just happy I was reading. The only show I never really got into was Buffy the Vampire Slayer...not quite sure why. Ive seen a few episodes and the guy with white hair was HOT, but still I never got into it.

My favorites were The Lost Boys, Interview with a Vampire, Underworld, Blade ...The TV series Forever Knight and Kindred the embraced...My favorite books back then were the Vampire Diaries which I would read over and over...all 4 books in the series. Then more recently there was Twilight. The books were just as addicting as the LJ Smith books. I couldn't put them down and in fact read all four books within 3 days time. Then just recently the CW came out with a TV show based on the Vampire Diaries books!! Could you believe it?! My favorite books as a kid were finally going to made into a show!! I used to write in my journal about who I would cast to play them in the movie.
My brother to this day still makes fun of me for my simple obsession. At first it used to really bother me, but now I just blow him off. I mean it's not like I talk about his WOW obsession or anything. :)

I guess you can say my obsession also includes witches. Not in the devil worship sense. I'm talking good witches. Again reading LJ Smith's books The Secret Circle and watching movies like The Craft. They've made me a fan of the supernatural world. I'm always looking for that next book, movie, or anything else....any sugguestions??

"I hope they serve beer in hell"





Today I was at my cousin's house and found a book sitting on his bookcase...looked new. The title caught my eye "I hope they serve beer in hell" by Tucker Max. I asked him what it was about and he said his friend bought it for him because the main character reminded him of my cousin. So of course I have to pick it up and start reading. Now the main guy describes himself as pretty much an ass hole. Well I should have immediately been offended right? Not me..I'm intrigued now. How much of an ass hole could this guy really be?? So I start reading the book. Meanwhile my cousin is Jammin away...which is the reason I was there in the first place..but anyway. I start reading the first chapter and could not stop laughing hysterically. I don't remember the last time I laughed so hard. Now if this book was meant for men...I dunno...I thought it was funny. How much stuff could actually happen to one person. This guy was awesome! Now morally I should be appalled at some of the things he did, but well I'm human and I find humor in most things. Anyway if you're looking for a book to make you laugh. Check out "I hope they serve beer in hell" by Tucker Max. He also has a website www.tuckermax.com Oh yea and I should warn you, some of the stories are raunchy and vulgar. Enjoy!

Saosin ~ New album comes out tomorrow!





THis is the video of the listening party in Newport Beach. They played old song and new...all acoustic!

What's on my iPod

I recently graduated to a new phone. A phone that does it all...at least better than my last one. Well now I run into the problem of where to put all my music. I still have my old iPod and I love her...but now I have my iPhone which in itself is an iPod. I have about 700 songs on my old faithful so trying to decide which songs to put on my phone...!! Well I have to put my favorites : Paramore, Muse, The Cure, 30 Seconds to Mars, Taylor Swift, Russell Michael, Pink, the Killers, Saosin, Depeche Mode,.... the list goes on... but c'mon theres some groups/singers that you just can't live without. Add in some classical...Pachelbel..some country Sugarland, some CCR, Journey, and cant forget the old stuff... some Teddy P and Marvin. Oh wait my 80's... Lisa Lisa, A-ha, ohh the list goes on. I think I have a pretty eclectic taste in music. I'm addicted to music...all kinds. I'll listen to just about any genre once. Twice just to make sure. Maybe I'll like it, maybe I won't, but at least I'll give it a listen. Any suggestions on what to listen out for? Just ask and I'll fill you in more in depth on my world of music.
