I’ve got shirts for Muse, the Aquabats, and Led Zeppelin and I’m working on finding a good one for the Arctic Monkeys.  I also have posters for Muse, the Aquabats and Paramore while attempting to procure a Meg and Dia/Dia Frampton one.  And finally, I don’t know if this counts but, I’ve got the tickets from the concerts with Muse and Journey/Heart/Cheap Trick, and I might still have the ticket for Weird Al as well.

Muse, they’re by far my favorite band, even though I’ve seen them live before I’d still do anything to see ‘em again.  But if ya want a band that I haven’t gotten to see yet, it’d probably be between Arctic Monkeys and Meg and Dia/ Dia Frampton.  They’re odd bedfellows but those are the two groups, outside of Muse that I constantly find myself falling back to and never growing tired of their music, plus they’re both really good live.

I can play the trombone.  It’s been a while but I could probably pick it back up with some practice.  I was never that great though so the motivation isn’t really there.  I definitely wanna learn to play the bass guitar one of these days when I’m safely employed and have time on my hands.

That would be a great big nope.  Most of my illusions of having any kind of musical talent were cast out after spending 8 long years in band in school.  I wasn’t horrible, but the talent just wasn’t there.  I like singing and I’d like to eventually learn the bass but I think I’ll leave the band thing to the professionals.

yeah, one of my best friend’s older brothers is in a band called “The Howls” so I’ve met someone in a band.  I haven’t ran into anyone whose famous on like a national level or anything but meh.  I feel like I wouldn’t have much of anything to say to someone like that other than the obligatory “can I have your autograph” so it’s not something I dream about too much.

That’s hard but I’d probably have to say Cheap Trick but that doesn’t mean anything.  They were still pretty good, I just wasn’t really there to see them.  I’ve been thoroughly entertained by every concert I’ve been to but if I did have to pick a worst I think it would have to be them.

It would be 5, although 3 of those were at the same concert.  My first was “Weird Al” back in middle school, then I saw “Cheap Trick”, “Heart” and “Journey” all together a couple years ago.  Most recently I achieved a life goal and saw “Muse”.

1) Givin’ the Dog a Bone- AC/DC: It’s definitely not my favorite from this album, in fact I’d probably rate it toward the bottom of the “Back in Black” album. That being said, it’s still a fun song and I have a very nostalgic connection to every song from this album since it was the first CD I ever got as a kid.
