Cool photo, Kate.

Maybe because British rockers are sexy, Anne. I love John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison.

LOL Mel! Maybe this is true, it's just that they are not really "rockers". They're just guys with guitars who write their own songs and perform them in bars.

Thats great Kate!

Ok I know I keep posting about bands that people will likely not know because they are Australian. But it was Grinspoon last night! A St. Patty's Day celebration of rocking out. SO much fun and SOOOO good. Although I was a little disappointed that they didnt play Just Ace, which is one of my favourite songs. It was an older song of theirs though that didnt get quite the recognition as the others. Weird bit about it though was the bass player started playing the chords to it and the other members looked at him, shook their heads and then they played another song. VERY strange. But oh well. Excellent show and I am now exhausted!

Thats great, Kate. I love rock concerts!

Warbee · 18 Mar 10 :: 06:03

Oh and I bumped into a girl in the toilets and the Grinspoon concert and we both did that extended awkward look at each other and then pointed at each other and said KissChasy! Haha I was standing next to her for the line for KissChasy and then saw her at the Grinners concert. Small world like that.

I love rock concerts too. There is nothing quite like allowing yourself to just yell and scream and jump around and feeling the bass pump through you while next to you the person is bouncing around doing the same thing. So so SO much fun!

JAM! I have never heard anything like Sleigh Bells before. This is the third song in a row I've listened to. It's weird as shit, but I kinda like it. Be careful with the volume. You have been warned.

I'm so obsessed with Muse at the moment again. I wanna buy all their albums. LOL

My boyfriend is playing a gig on Monday night in Gwinnett and hes playing at the Arena Tavern. I know that you live in Atlanta, Deb so it would be great if you could be there. It would mean alot to him and both my boyfriend and I could meet you. The gig starts at 9 and ends at 12. Hes not sure when hes going to perform. I hope to see you there, Deb.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 19 Jun 10 :: 19:46

I'd love to, but Gwinnett is about 35 miles from where I live so I wouldn't get home till after 1 AM and I have to work the next day. I'm way too old to stay out that late on a work night. But if he ever plays there on a weekend, I'd totally go. Please do keep me posted on any future gigs that might be close enough for me to get to. I think it'd be great to come see you guys.

BiggestChrisMarquetteFan · 27 Jun 10 :: 02:41

Aw.
Its open mic there every Monday night. They always put the performances on youtube and transfer the audio to a cd for each performer. The videos of Warrin haven't been posted yet and hes performed twice at the Gwinnett Arena Tavern. He didn't perform until like one when I saw him perform and he only had the chance to perform 4 songs. He did 3 covers and 1 original. I met this girl Sky that he met in Stn Mtn park there and some of her friends. Shes nice but not too good of a musician. Here are links to 2 of her performances so you all can see for yourselves.

I recently re-discovered my love for Nickelback ... I am currently hooked on their "I'd Come For You" Song. *sigh*

BiggestChrisMarquetteFan · 01 Aug 10 :: 02:31

I like the Nickelback songs "Figured You Out" and "If Everyone Cared."

TheCentralScrutinizer · 07 Aug 10 :: 06:29

Wow.

I can't get enough of this song. It stirs my Celtic/Appalachian blood.

domesticelefant · 07 Aug 10 :: 12:20

I think I heard this song on the radio once but didn't know who sang it. Thanks for posting that here.

TeeJay · 07 Aug 10 :: 21:19

I saw Livingston and Sunrise Avenue for free today. Both were really good, even though I barely knew any songs. Sunrise Avenue are such great entertainers on stage! Even though there wasn't much of a crowd and only very few hardcore fans, they still managed to get the crowd involved and sing and clap along. And with both bands it was just fun to watch how they enjoyed playing on stage. Always more fun if you get the vibe that the band is having a good time too.

That reminds me, I need to check out Sunrise Avenue's latest album. I have their first one, but then I forgot to keep track when they released the next one. Guess I'll check amazon soon.
I'd really like to see them live one day.

30 years ago today John Lennon was shot.

BiggestChrisMarquetteFan · 09 Dec 10 :: 08:54

Its tragic. Every December 8 I think of no one except John Lennon, on his birthday October 9 too. I love what John Lennon left us. He is my biggest inspiration and I hope Mark David Chapman stays in jail forever.

Donna · 25 Jul 11 :: 22:43

oh I am not cool but whatever, I am who I am...I love the New kids on the block. Big time. Other favorites are Blink182 and Taking Back Sunday...lots of alternative, 90's grunge/rock

BiggestChrisMarquetteFan · 30 Jul 11 :: 05:57

I like Taking Back Sundays song Make Damn Sure.
My favorite new song is Trapped by Soulidium and Shame by Drowning Pool. You should listen to those songs.
