A Tale of Three Cities

It's officially summer now!! I have been waiting for this for what seems like an eternity and...I'm already sick of it. Kidding. But I could do without the humidity. Anyway, my sister and I have already had a nice little mini-concert tour to start the summer off in preparation for the real deal in August. We saw HURT in Springfield, Mo, Kansas City, and tiny little shithole called Algona, Iowa. If you ever get the chance to visit this village, don't. But in all seriousness we had a fun time and made some interesting memories. We got introduced to a great new opening band that we actually liked which surprisingly doesn't happen that often. Check out Righteous Vendetta if you have the chance! Their music is great and the guys are even greater! Springfield and KC were fun...but Algona proved to be really awkward considering there were approximately 10 people at the venue including me, my sister, and the bands so.......

We got caught chatting in the moshpit by RV...oops ;)

However, this awkwardness could have been worse and now Amanda and I are ready for our KV13 trip in August. I've mentioned KV13 a few times throughout this blog and now it's finally happening. Don't ask me what it means 'cause I ain't gonna tell ya...all I can tell you is that it is going to be amazing!! Luckily a tour has finally been announced too so we can work our way to KV13 in Boston while also going to a thousand concerts. It's an SP tour which probably sounds dumb since everyone thinks we hate them now. For the record, we don't. We're just....disappointed. But it will be a blast nonetheless. Our plan tentatively now is some magical route to Richmond; then we have a few days to fuck around in Richmond, DC, and Annapolis. Then it's something like Delaware, Rhode Island, Boston, a couple places in Upstate NY and blah blah blah. Essentially we're going to be gone for 13 days so if anyone has a place to offer us to stay we wouldn't be opposed hahah. I'm so excited!

In other news, I finally finished the first season of Revolution and it was awesome! I officially am enrolled in Vanderbilt now! And my last 2 silly bands broke from Summer 2010...boo. Hopefully this was at least somewhat entertaining for you. Adios

Summer is here! I finally said goodbye to New York City...

Goodbye Washington Sq. Park

I have been home for a week today and I'm loving every minute of it! I am so glad that I survived this semester...now it's fun, heat, sun, and concerts!! Amanda and I already have a few lined up: 6/8, 6/9, (6/16), 6/27, and 8/16. I CAN'T WAIT. I'm trying to be patient and wait for the perfect stretch of tour dates to be announced but I'm dying of excitement. Still, these little dates are good ones to get us started for the summer. Also, SP finally put out their first single off the new album. It's called "There's No Going Back." I hate it. It's actually more poppy and worse than "Maybe" which I didn't think was physically possible. It is. The verses are okay but the rest of the song is full of "oh-oh" chants and shit melodies. From what I've heard from the rest of the album though, this is the poppiest song off of the album. At least I hope it is. So, I'm a little disappointed but I also kind of expected it. Anyway, a trip to Boston to cross KV13 off of mine and Amanda's bucket list is slowly getting planned out so this summer is already more exciting than last.

Gotta go,
