They Lied When They Said the Good Die Young



Let me give you a brief rundown of all the bands last night.
Metro Station: decent, poppy, happy. Took awhile to get people moving so we could get up to the front.
MAE: they have really gone downhill. It breaks my heart. I just can't get into Singularity, 3/4 of the band has changed, and they just don't rock as hard as they used to...
Motion City Soundtrack: decent, poppy, happy. Swore a lot though... no thanks.
Anberlin: Probably the best thing to happen to music since I don't know when. They get better and better every time. They were clearly the best band there, pretty much everyone that was there was there to see them, and I think I experienced some sort of nirvana. Or euphoria, maybe I should say that, even though I'm pretty sure it was nirvana... There are no words to describe how utterly fantastic they truly are. I wish they had been headlining last night, that pretty much would have been the best thing ever.
So here are some pictoral highlights: The first is Stephen Christian, Anberlin's lead singer. I wish I could have gotten more pics of them but the crowd was pushing so hard it was pretty much impossible. The second is the lead singer of MAE, the third... well I don't really know but it looks cool.
Other highlights of the evening included:
-Anberlin
-Nate trying to take off his jacket
-Anberlin
-Dale dancing

Oh, and did I mention that Anberlin is pretty much amazing?

Did you know the BYU HBLL also has a blog? I mean, you put a link to the BYU-H one, but I think the HBLL deserves a little respect and love.

I think that last picture serves to capture the intensity of the evening.

Hi Lindsey. I am glad you had fun and that you were safe. I am too old for the concert scene now. I used to go to concerts in junior high and high school, though...
Translation: I used to be cool.

Dear Lindsey,
I have just realized that you are leaving Provo! There wont be anymore running into you outside of the library, or the JFSB. I'm a little despondent.

Give it Up

So last night was The Format concert. It was so rad. How could it not be when they're from AZ? It was a nice little cap off to my summer, which is now almost over. My job as a TA has been verified, next week will be my last week as a paralegal, and the time has come for me to buy books and backpacks...I hope I don't get in a fight... sorry, random Billy Madison moment. Anyway, this summer has been fantabulous, yes I did just use that fake word. Being in Provo for the summer has been a good experience for me. Now I feel like something is just around the corner, besides school that is... I'm not quite sure what it is, but I know its going to be great whatever it is... Is it possible that it could be my fall semester opener... also known as the Mae concert on Sept. 6?? Its possible... however, I don't think thats it...I feel like this summer has been such a great learning experience to prepare me for some great new even that is going to come my way. Maybe I'm makin

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALICIA!!

Today is a very special day in the life of my little sister. She is turning 18. I remember when she was a little baby ( I was three when she was born, well, almost). So, Let me list some of the reasons I love my sister. 1. We shared a room for years, and fought all the time, what fun. 2. She lets me call her various and sundry nicknames. Some of the ones she finds less embarrassing are shushi(which actually isn't a Lindsey original, I'll admit) and gorilla. 3. She lets me provoke and tease her, and she always rises to the occasion by getting mad and offended ( she secretly likes it, don't worry). 4. She always loses at our laughing contests. 5. She finds me hilarious ( who doesn't??) 6. She makes weird noises, and always at the necessary moment. 7. She listens to my problems. 8. I know she cares about my happiness. 9.She speaks french with me. 10. She confides in me, and I trust her with my secrets too. See! Isn't she great? So happy birthday Alicia Face! And always
