Let's Get Fancy!

Notes: 1 / 1 year ago

Anticipation

Sunday night is the We the Kings concert, quite excited its like a day after christmas present to ourselves, well actually technically I did get me my ticket from Caila for my birthday… Im looking foward to it.

I just havent been to a concert in gosh what has it been….. 6 months or so, Im starting to get withdrawals & such. I need a good concert at a good venue, with a band I enjoy, basically just a good general concert experience. Plus because of this lack of concerts means theres been a lack of going-ons with letsgetfancy.com and this blog in general. perhaps this is just the push we need to get things back into the swing of things.

thats my rantings for the night.

Updates!

We didn’t write the interview with Kevin yet, but we’re gonna do it this week.

We went to the Take Action Tour, and I’m going to review the show, and the venue after this.

We talked to Travis after the show, and got an email so we can conduct the interview. =)

email questions you want to ask him to letsgetfancy@hotmail.com

The Rocket Summer’s album comes out on February 23. I bet you’re excited.

i havent been researching lately, so thats all i got for updates.

It’s been awhile…

Okay. So I know it’s been a while. I apologize. I’ve been swamped with school, Justine too, and finals are this week. I promise that after this week, the interview with Kevin will make it up. Also, we didn’t go to We The Kings because Travis never got back to us, but fret not my friends, we will try again in February. So there’s been a lot happening, but I’m probably not going to get to everything on this post. Also this will probably be the only post until I get back home because once I finish this I’m going to start studying for finals.

So, We The Kings released their new cd, Smile Kid, on Tuesday. It’s really good. I promise. I’m listening to it right now. If you buy it at Walmart you get a free membership to their fan club, and a chance to meet them, I don’t have the details because I bought my copy at Target before I found out about that great deal.

Kisses For Kings, a band I think I’ve mentioned atleast a few times, put an EP teaser up on their myspace page. www.myspace.com/kissesforkings. So go check it out. Maybe I’ve told you, maybe I haven’t, so I’m going to tell you. I found them because it’s Tony Lovato’s [Mest] new band, and Mest is my favorite band so I was excited to hear his new stuff. I really like it. I actually have one of their songs on my myspace profile playlist, Risk It All, an you can listen to that song on their myspace too.

So while I’m on the subject, if you’re a Mest fan you can still buy stuff on www.mestmerch.com. I know I put that website down on my Christmas list and next to it I wrote “pretty much anything fom this site” and I’m expecting the cd for Christmas, since I strongly suggested for my mom to buy it the other day. haha.

Oh and I forgot to mention this before, We The Kings got an official website! www.wethekingsmusic.com. Also they announced a headlining tour for february-march time period. You can check out the tour dates when you check out their new website! =)

Another thing you may be excited about, and I know I am, is Warped Tour ‘10! The dates are up at www.warpedtour.com so go check it out, they’re announcing bands soon. =) yay!

This may make you think I’m a little behind, but am I the only who didn’t know about Armor For Sleep breaking up?! I go through phases with them, but love them. While putting a crapload of music on my Itunes last weekend, I came across What To Do When You Are Dead, and I’ve been listening to it so much, and I somehow stumbled across an article about their break up! I asked Justine if I had known about that [because sometimes i find out that stuff and freak out then forget then find it again and freak out again] but she didn’t even know about it, which means I probably didn’t either. Bummer.

So Quietdrive does a stickam chat every Wednesday at 7pm CST. Which, if you live on the east coast like me, is actually 8pm, and if you live on the west coast is like 5pm? I think. I’m not 100% about that one though. So they’re pretty funny, and they usually play a song or two, and sometimes have guests, and play games. Because of my internet connection here in the dorms I can’t watch it because it lags too much, but if Justine watches it while we skype, I can listen to it on hers and watch it on mine. and yes, we’ve done this. Also Quietdrive is doing a myspace contest, the winners could get a phone call from the guys, all you have to do is put a widget playing their music on your profile and then send them an email with some of your info in it. http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=3033909&blogId=520913196. Wicked easy, so go do it. =)

Today I came across two Taking Back Sunday b-sides from the vinyl version of New Again? I think. Anyway, I don’t buy vinyl because its too expensive when you can’t even use it haha, so they should’ve released these on cd. anyways. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tmq50zHnWHE&feature=related,

the second one I almost feel like should’ve gone on Louder Now. But the first one is really good. well they’re both really good.

This month’s AP comes with My Chemical Romance posters =)

Tomorrow at 1pm the presale for New Found Glory’s first album ten year reunion tour. http://newfoundglory.frontgatetickets.com/

I think that’s all my brain can come up with folks.

I hope that will hold you over until next week. [If I survive finals]

Happy Holidays =)

STRAYLIGHT RUN 11/4/09

my mom, in not one of her finer hours, accidently bought me two tickets to Straylight Run on wednesday, instead of quietdrive, which she did eventually purchase. Not that I dont like Straylight Run, but its near impossible for me to get to The Space in Hamden, CT on wednesday night.

on that note. im selling the tickets for $15 each, theres two. we just want to make the $30 back that we accidently purchased.

anyone interested?

Happy Halloween

I hope you’re all out getting candy and scaring people tonight. Or maybe you’re going to a show, lucky.

I have some bad news for you.

Chad Gilbert of NFG has been tweeting saying that the Dashboard/NFG tour has been canceled. I know I’m disappointed, that would’ve been a good show.

I’ll let you know if I get more info.

Enjoy you’re Halloween. =)
