Spring break came and went far to quickly for my liking. I would love to be able to gossip about my break but I have no time for that...there are bands to be discussed!
Ok, I lied lets talk a little about my break first! On Wednesday March 26th I went to a venue called The Red Devil Lounge where I saw Better Than Aliens and Raised By Robots play. There was also some other guy who opened before them but I can’t remember what he called himself, and if I can’t remember something as simple as a name then that doesn’t say much about the music, ouch...burn. I had a great time at the show taking full advantage of the bar’s special which was a shot of Jack and a bottle of Bud for 7 bucks, not bad. A few specials later I made myself up to the front of the stage where I did that annoying thing drunk girls do...the “whooooooooooo, yayyyyyyyyyyyyy” repetitive shouting at the band on stage like they were pieces of meat. I found myself to be quite entertaining and I think others around be appreciated my enthusiasm. A representative from the website Pacific Noise also attended the show which was a special treat. Pacific Noise is a video-blog site that records bands playing a few songs and promotes them on the internet. However a year ago the guy who runs the site broke his leg and has been unable to record live shows so instead has been recording the bands at Lennon Studios. For his first show back on his own two legs he decided to feature Better Than Aliens...and get this you can hear me and my drunken shouts...I’m famous!

Continuing on my break I had big plans to attend The Phenomenauts show which also featured The A.KA.S and Maldroid at Slims on Saturday March 29th but my Boyfriend got an allergy attack from our cat and fell asleep at 6pm so we missed the show. So lame I know, but it is ok because Maldroid will be playing another show this coming Friday April 4th and not only is it their CD Release Party but it is also a free show!
Lastly I have decided that just because school is back in session that does not mean I have to cut back on my partying, it just means I have to make time for homework and who says you can’t have a few drinks while you do your homework? Well, If you are like me and want to go out and do something during the week then I suggest you come to The Edinburgh Castle tomorrow April 3rd to see Mosshead . Plus I will be there so it will be extra fun!
