Mmmmm

Bacon Sandwiches. Yum!
And nobody caught me out on not saying hello >.> so no cookie :D
Probably because there's only like 2 people watching this blog but meh =)

So I went to see this pretty cool band on friday called IRON MAIDEN :D:D:D:D:D
No seriously though, this concert was incredible. I would in all seriousness pay that $150 just to see The Evil That Men Do or Fear of the Dark [Live at Rock in NZ xD] again.

The stage set up was amazing, they had these MASSIVE posters in the background that revolved for like every song :0. They had this wicked egyptian theme going (from Powerslave), the drumkit looked SO phat, I wanted to thief it :D:D. Honestly it's really hard to like, kind of explain what it was like to people who didn't go, and there's almost no point in explaining it to the people that did go >.< BUT MEH.

Dickinson is my fuckin' hero, he's got so much freakin' energy it's amazing. Like every second song he'd changed outfit it was lol as, in The Trooper he had this badass british soldier outfit and was running around waving this flag it was srs win.
Plus he's got like the most powerful voice in all of metal (as far as I know) when it comes to playing live. His evil laughs sent shivers down my spine, shivers that made me headbang >.>... alot :D.

When it came to the actual moshpit, it was pretty, I dunno the word, sedate? No big ass fight circles and walls of death and shit which, given the type of music wasn't suprising. And tbh, I prefered it that way, there was no way I was going to have my IRON MAIDEN concert ruined by an elbow to the face or some shit.

And EDDIE was there :D, half way through the concert (I think it was on Iron Maiden? the song?) this giant robot comes cruising out on to stage and like attacks Steve Harris, while he fights it off with his bass :p and then it took a quick shake in the middle of the stage LOL.

I dunno what else to talk about >.<

Just know that if you didn't go

You missed out =).

Breakdown Of My Classes

Working in Music - that's the business side of music; how to organise the band, how to get gigs, copyrighting songs, how to appeal to an audience etc... This class is the shit.

Music Knowledge 1 - Wtf I got into the advanced theory class, I'm pretty much fucked. But this class is awesome, I know how to play most of the major scales now and yeah, this is awesome.

Music Knowledge 2 - Lyrical Composition. I thought that this was going to be one of my favourite classes, as I love writing lyrics. Except it's stupid. The teacher thinks Avril Lavigne has good lyrics. Screw her. Get Dustin Kensrue in here or something. Hell MY lyrics are better.
Dustin Kensrue is a genius though, like all he does is get better with every album, so addicted to The Melting Point of Wax atm;

There's no promise of safety with these secondhand wings
But I'm willing to find out what impossible means.
Climb to the heavens on feathers and dreams
Because the melting point of wax means nothing to me.
Nothing to me.
NOTHING TO ME.


Music Performance 1 + 2 (both assessed together) - Is pretty pimpin', they chuck us into a band with a bunch of random people and a genre which we have to play 3 covers and 1 original in every month (new band every month). So that's pretty phat :D, good practice too.

Music Technology - Don't start this for a while so I dunno, probably awesome.

Communications - MIDI. YUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. WIN WIN WIN :D:D:D:D:D:D

And that's it.
This course is the shit xD.

Vincent

Is BY FAR the best evil anime character. EVER. I mean he's not even evil, he's just confused ^_^.
Honestly, everytime he starts talking it's like beautiful sadistic poetry.

Shinichiro Watanabe is a genius, his characters are actually 'real', none of these bullshit super powers and weapons, the people actually talk and react like humans would. The cowboy series is good, the movie is SO GOOD.

If you haven't seen Cowboy Bebop: Knockin' on Heavens Door, ask me for it. NOW.

Rant over, and here's a picture of Vincent just for the hell of it;
