hehe, yeah
to tell the truth, my girlfriend is the fan. I wasn't really interested in them that much, but now I've been listening to them a lot more, and I'm getting in the mood for them. might be an idea to give a listen before you see them?
and yeah, Rammstein eclypsed any gig I've ever been to before, it was beyond epic... :eek:0 -

Why?
She hasn't been returning my texts for the last few days, and I've not seen her at college this week. Neither of those are particularly out of character, especially as college work is piling up, but there's a lot going on with her and I just hope she's not letting it get on top of her.
She has a tendency to hide away when things get too much, and she hasn't realised yet that it only makes it worse.
I'm not hugely worried, as it's not really unusual. But at the same time I don't want to just assume that everything's fine, if that makes sense.
Will give her a ring tomorrow if she's not in class.
Now, going to watch the Biggest Loser while eating noms

Why would that mean you're losing your marbles?
Because I had convinced myself that I couldn't cook to save my life and today I made 18 scones and 18 cupcakes.
sigh, so I heard back from the job I applied for, they sait congrats you've...been shortlisted to interview further when we're hiring again, which I dont know when it is, could be months, sigh, gonna keep looking cos I cant wait around for something that crop up some point later in the year, need a new job now.
Ah that sucks.. Keep looking but you could be lucky and get an interview soon.
xRammstein was the greatest gig I've ever been to, and I've been to a lot
I'm jealous, I wanna go to another gig soon. I've only been to 5 and one of them doesn't really count because it was Westlife when I was 15. I've seen Green Day twice, 30 Seconds to Mars once and I was at Noel Gallagher a couple of weeks ago. I'm kind of unlucky because my favourite bands are really unlikely to do a gig here.WesternNight wrote: »She hasn't been returning my texts for the last few days, and I've not seen her at college this week.

Hope she's ok WN. You're right, give her a ring tomorrow if you don't see her. x0 -

I don't mind the volume, just the queuing, toilets, boredom waiting for it to start...I've been to Slane twice, Radiohead, some others in Tralee during the festival, but I've seen Damien Rice, Mundy, Coronas, Bell X1, and a few more in nice low key gigs, much prefer that. Bell X1 was definitely the best, 200 people in a tiny bar in Chinatown in Toronto, about 50 Irish people loving it and 150 Canadians getting into the spirit! 0 -
I've been to a few concerts where the adrenalin rush kicked in, and I didn't notice the crowding, loudness, pushing etc. It does help when you're 17 and want to marry the entire band
Oxegen was another matter :rolleyes: I didn't enjoy it at all, as I made the mistake of going with people with much different tastes in music to me. Also, it LASHED rain the whole weekend, so goodbye festival chic and hello drowned rat 0 -

Rammstein was one of the greatest gigs I've ever been to!Rammstein was the greatest gig I've ever been to, and I've been to a lot
You guys will love this quote I heard from a guy walking to the o2 yesterday... "I'm off to Rammstein tonight, you remember those German feckers who won the Eurovision a few years ago"
He must have gotten some shock!
Mars Bar, I didn't know the Used were playing. I'd love to go see them. I'd say they're brilliant live! Finding someone to go with will be impossible though!0 -
I can't avoid gigs- the OH is a musician so I'm always at them (at least one a month- one a week when his band was trying to break through)
I love small venue gigs, there's always a great atmopshere and you can pretty much chat with anyone
That said my late teens and early twenties were a blur of festivals and concerts. Loved every minute then but now I'm not too bothered with them. I've seen pretty much all my (living) heros play live so I'm happy with that0 -

Yeah my ex was a musician so I got sick of music/gigs/etc for a long while 0 -

I hate loud music & I get really annoyed when people are disorderly and push past me (I have, to my shame, pinched people who were shoving or leaning over me in the past). The only way I'd go to a non-seated gig would be if there were numbered squares painted on the floor and people had to stand in their own square (organised by height or else on a sloping floor so there are no obstructed views) or else be kicked out/killed as a warning to others.
the day I knew I was old was the day I got tickets for a show and took seated ones instead of standing yay for room and the ability to sit 0 -

Aristocat that sounds so frightening, thank god you were okay!
Not-so-fun-fact; my parents were supposed to get married in Sheffield on the day the Hillsborough disaster happened, they changed the date as it would have been a nightmare having a wedding in the city on a big match day. My mum still hates talking about it, even though nobody they knew was involved.
We have to talk about it in a college assignment, it was so horrible
Scary stuff

I know this sounds very strange, but my brother was at Hillsborough. It is unbelievable that the two of us were at these events. Sometimes life is very strange.Aristocat that sounds so frightening, thank god you were okay!

I love festivals. I go to one abroad every year and work at Electric Picnic most years too. Missed it last year though. Spent my childhood going to festivals with my parents as my Dad worked at them. Probably went to more as a child than as an adult
Oxegen isn't great though. Just seems to be the concerts and the campsite...nothing else really happening. And it always rains! Best festival I was at was Roskilde in Denmark...brilliant!
In other news...I really wish my motivation for college this semester would go up a bit. Did way more last semester.0 -

Absolutely adore festivals and gigs. Best concert I was at was AC/DC in Punchestown. Feeling the drums and bass pounding my chest was just intense! To me there's nothing better than seeing one of your favorite bands live. I was right at the front of the barrier and got a pit pass My only regret was forgetting my camera 0

I was in the pit at that gig too, and I hated it! Everyone was so tall, thought I was gonna be crushed 0 -

I would love that but unfortunately I can't afford to make my way to you.
I have cookies and cupcakes to make for my wonderful bf and also a couple of batches of scones for my mam and my bf's parents. I got a really nice recipe on Odlums.ie for some mini pizzas.
I was in PetMania today and they have some really really lovely gerbils. I'm thinking of getting two. 0 -

I was lucky to get to the front when I did, in the space of 10 mins the crowd tripled around me! One of the best days of my life
Need to get my ass in gear with collage, I can't afford to miss exams stupidly anymore (even if it was the tutors fault :rolleyes:) going to try get in early every morning in case and just do some work.
I feel motivated :cool:
This song springs to mind

Yep, my boyfriend was at that, he said it was brilliant and he was right up the front as well in the pit. I was subjected to many videos and photos of the same The Rock and Roll train was unreal. 0 -
