Hey there! So this is my first ever blog and I've decided on music for the topic. Sure, I like most genres of music, but my favorite is alternative rock. My mother calls it "loud noise", but I call it "my sanity." This blog will cover new bands, upcoming concerts in the Boston area(there are so many concerts coming up and sadly I cannot attend all of them), my favorite bands and songs, and my own personal scary and amazing experiences from concerts. In every blog I will also tell you what I'm currently listening to and I will give you guys some suggestions on what you should be listening to. Also I love questions!!! So I guess that's it...I hope. O' wait as I was writing this I was jammin to If It Means A Lot To You by A Day To Remember!! Wicked good song and band and it was part of my summer '09 soundtrack lol. If you guys have any suggestions for me that would be awesome as well. Peace People-Gel

Hey!!!! People!!! So it's now the beginning of the week :( not cool.
So on the 23rd I went to a Mat Kearney concert... I know that music is a bit different from what I listen to but I'm always open to new things!
The concert was actually really chill and relaxing. I didn't have to worry about people kicking me in the head with their shoes or if someone was gonna push me into a mosh pit!!! It was soo nice!. Mat Kearney is a great performer and I would definitely see him again! His lyrics were amazing!
Paramore!!!!!! okay so Paramore's new album comes out on the 29th!! people get on that! You can listen to the album on their myspace....yes people still use myspace! Paramore is also coming to the house of blues....but sorry people it's been sold out for a while :(
Also I believe Bless The Fall came out with some new stuff, check it out!!
SO if you are from Western Mass (big ups to my 413 people) you know about the Big E!!! but if you don't ,check it out cause this weekend is the last we ... more »

hey people!!!
So its been mad long since i last blogged. So let me just catch everyone up:
1) Went home last weekend to work, hit up the big e, and get my tattoo done. Worked sucked balls ( as usual), the Big E was wicked fun and I ate a lot of food, like a bus load! Went to Northampton with my friend because she wanted another piercing and I wanted another tattoo but sadly Scott didn't have time for me, he was booked all flippin day :( So prolly this weekend coming up!!
2) Saw Shadows Fall with my friend at the House of Blues and they were awesome (can't say the same for Five Finger Death Punch though...) Shadows Fall is actually from Springfield,MA. Where I'm from!! Big Ups to all my fellow 413 people!! So I met a lot of people from the surrounding areas of Springfield.
I think that's it for this entry, but im putting another one up right after this one because im a lil behind...hehehe schools just been kickin my ass lately (can we swear in these blogs?...o well)
peace people!

hey people!!
So ive been listening to this band called Framing Hanley for some time now,and they are amazing!! not to mention the lead singer is fly but currently taken....i know so sad. But everyone should check them out cause they have wicked lyrics!
Last Wednesday I bought The Used and The Almost tickets for the house of blues on the 23rd. I have always been a fan of the used cause they're great and put on great shows!! so usually every wednesday Livenation has this promotion where you can get tickets for mad cheap or they are like half off, or there are no service charges( which are awesome because its always those damn service charges that make the tickets so expensive). I only paid like 70 bucks for 4 tickets which in my book is great because ive paid hella lot of money for concert tickets in the past.
Also the used just came out with a new album that is flippinfantastic! but i hope they play some of their old stuff at the concert as well.
So I know everyone bought paramores n ... more »
