Starstruck

We were waiting for another friend to show up on the Scary Geary when James Righton came out of the tour bus. Sophie- cool as a cucumber went up to him asked whether we could have a picture. She looks gorgeous obviously and i look like a starstruck girl about to burst into tears. Not too suave unfortunately. But... he is dreamy.

Ooo... Chimpanzee that Monkey News

So there were four monkeys that went to the north pole right? And they met up and formed a band. What should we name ourselves? said one monkey to the other- Arctic Monkeys! .. ok lame. But I don't think Karl Pilkington would have thought so.

Awww... don't they look cute

Puportedly they got engaged on the 21st and they have each other's name tattoo-ed on their hips.

Cutie pie...

isn't she? Photo is courtesy of Mr. AA who is a superfan and managed to get up close and personal while i had tip toe glances of the beautiful Joss Stone from 50 feet away. Hey! You would happen to have any up close pics of Mr. Blunt would you?

Brava...

as Sophie would say and did say... as i walked in- i heard a familiar tune and i rush in to peak who was playing- it took me a couple of seconds before I realized it was Biffy Clyro! I finally managed to see them live- after missing them for probably the 3rd time perhaps? Wembley, Parc des Princes... but at least now i recognized some of the tunes. So the night kicked off quite marvelously. I was rather afraid that it might have been a low energy night for me. I even forgot to bring my camera! Which was such a shame because we we're about 4 feet away from the stage. When The Editors came out, it was definitely one of those bands that made you perk up. Of course- it doesn't hurt that Tom is such a looker. Ooo la- growing out that beautiful hair of his. Sigh- one of those please! Vocals- excellent. Chris on lead- quite marvy. Ed providing the beats- rock on. I wasn't paying much attention to Russell. :( he was on the other side of the stage- but i'm sure equally as talented. All in all, rah rah rah, I had a good time.

Note: Since when do short people have the audacity to ask taller folks not to stand in front of them? I saw this happening several times in front of me. Believe me- I don't like it but i sure don't ask them to go back to the back of the line. Especially if they seem more like a superfan jumping up and down instead of being a macho shit short boyfriend trying to protect his girl who probably just wants to fuck Tom? Ok- that's my rant- he was just irritating. Wonder whether i could have taken him on.

I'm beggin at your door

Perhaps my batteries are running low. The wait was long at Popscene. It was anniversary night! but when we got in- we were still clueless at what the idiotic hold up was. It wasn't at all at full capacity. The ladies room was once again flooded- surprise surprise. I'm glad at least they didn't schedule a warm up act. It would have been painful. So- music was great- but homeboy needs a haircut don't you think? I just kept thinking carrot top. He's not 16 anymore is he? or is he!

So Dance the Samba...

I'm a little backlogged with my blogs. Not because i've been superbly busy, i've just been a little less excitable. Perhaps a tad tired. Divalicious was she- princess of neuvo Bossa Nova. Since it was a school night- I was a little tired on this beautiful night. Rage was a dearie and picked me up from work and to the Fillmore we went. This was Rage's first time at the infamous Fillmore so I was excited to show him around. For once- i think we were the only yellow skin folks- we'll yellow and black anyways. The backdrop had tiny lights which lit up like the night sky. Miss Bebel's portugese accent and humour was oh so adorable as you sway to the melodic beats. I saw a sample poster as i came in- but alas- i don't think they reproduced it for this night :( minus one for my collection. I was rather looking forward to putting it up in my cube.

Hate hate hate...

Did you know i hate scalpers? still no foo tics :(

Merde!

Dammit! This is what happens when i think twice about buying tics. I finally made my decision that i should see Foo Fighters at the O2 just because Dave was my teenage crush and also- i get to visit the O2 Arena. Like- why did i even hesitate. I saw some tics available this morn and now they're gone. !@#$^^%@
