Although it's been a while (well only a week to this day), I just wanted to mention how good the 3 Doors Down concert was! Most people (well not yanks of course) may not know who they are, but I guarantee you know a couple of their songs. Despite the southern accent (they are from Mississippi) a lot of 'thank you my friends' (picture with a very heavy accent) the booming guitar, the crazy hairy drummer and a whole bunch of songs together created an entertaining evening.
The similar theme of the lyrics can be percieved as life lessons: I dont want to get really 'deep' but a lot of their songs (as with most rock ones) are about the female species screwing the males over. Ok, life lesson you ask? Well titles like 'let me be myself' pretty much hit the nail on the head. The whole intensity when you are there and the singers voice at times made my hairs stand up on end, definitely a sign for me that they really are a great band!
If you've never heard of them, go check them out. In the States, they are probably percieved as a common run of the mill rock band, but everywhere else they appear to be 'underground', regardless, their music is still good (they've sold over 15 million albums, so can't be too bad).
Getting me in the rock spirit, I come home thinking I can play guitar- well one made of plastic, with 5 brightly coloured buttons and no strings, yep I am talented indeed:
Well this leaves me time to talk about what else has happened since that fab night- well not a great deal. I've been working hard in the lab, trying to understand all the stuff I'm doing. If you really want to know (yes, I thought not) then contact someone else. Ok, I'm trying to be funny and failing. If you can't take the piss out of yourself, I don't think you stand a chance of having a sense of humour!
The problem with blogging (or whatever the technical term is) is that everything is my opinion (more or less). Although some people might for some bizarre reason, want to know what I think about seemingly everything and nothing in particular, I'm sure all of about 3 people read this, including me and Johanna! I'm not going to voice my opinion about everything, because it's partly pointless and besides I don't have an opinion about a lot of things- things I don't understand or things I find boring etc. There's something that is kind of bugging me, but I can't be arsed to yack about it- time, effort, singling out someone in particular yada yada yada. Let's just say 'glory built on selfish principles is shame and guilt'....figure it out.
