May has been a pretty exciting month for me. I've hardly worked (Yay holiday time!) I've dyed some of my hair blue and I've bought some loverlayy new vintage things. As well as this,I finally got off my bum and applied for a job I REALLY REALLY want. From my last post, I think I got the point across that I was a bit well miserable actually. I had mentioned that I was looking for a new job, I applied to many, no avail, but then suddenly and randomly as if it was 'fate' I was informed of jobs going in the police. I am yet to hear anything yet, as to if I have been invited to the next stage of the process, but I am feeling pretty optimistic about it and hoping and praying lots!
As I mentioned before, I have hardly worked this month. I haven't been away anything nice or anything, but I have been going to lots of gigs! I love music, and I love going to shows and fortunately for me four bands I love decided to all tour in the space of 4 weeks! First off I went to see The Used at a signing in London. Despite waiting out in the pouring rain for hours and getting ill, it was totally worth it. they played a short acoustic set including 'Tunnel' 'Blue And Yellow and 'Lunacy Fringe.' Here's a video I found of Blue And Yellow. After the gig, we all met the guys which was rather amusing. Bert McCracken noticed I was a twin and suggested I start a career in porn! The next day I went to see them again, where they played a normal gig. It was amazing! A few days later I went to see those Canadian boys in Simple Plan. I love Simple Plan gigs as they are silly. I'm far too old to be singing along to songs about alien girlfriends! Pure cheese fest. Here's them singing Thank you. It was an insane gig and I ached for days afterwards!
This week was amazing as I went to see American band Say Anything. They haven't played a UK show in six years now so I was pretty stoked to be seeing them! I ended up in second row and it was beautiful! Sadly I couldn't find a decent video of them playing, but just in case you wondered what they sound like, they basically sounded exactly the same as this! Max is an incredible front man and is an amazing singer. They should be so much more famous then they are! And finally in the gig front I went to see William Control on Thursday night. I am an absolutely massive William Francis fan and love both Aiden and his side project William Control. I have seen him too many times to count, so had to go to this show too! William as usual absolutely slaughtered it. I couldn't find a video of him either at this actual gig, but here's a video of him at a gig I went to last year GO!
I'm going to stop being boring now and boring you with gig information ;) All my gigs are done and dusted now for a while! I am very excited though as I bought tickets for myself, my sister and her boyfriend to go see Derren Brown on Friday night. I hope he doesn't mess with my mind too much!
