So this is how this blog works. If i like it or think it looks cute or cool, i'm going to post it. I don't take credit for any of the things i post unless tagged with my url (so mostly text posts).
And here's a little about me. I love video games (if you couldn't tell already) so my posts may often reflect that.
I love music. I'm an aspiring pianist from LA. I have some audio recordings of my piano playing so click on the link down there if you want to check 'em out (which you should).
I'm generally pretty friendly, so don't feel intimidated if you wanna talk to me. Also feel free to leave sweet messages in my ask box. I totally don't mind.
My friends're epic and they call me Erk.

You’re A Mirror I Cannot Avoid | Bad Books
You’re a mirror I cannot avoid,
Strung out and jittery and paranoid.
I am in love with this cover of MGMT’s “Time to Pretend.”
Kevin Devine + Andy Hull = magic
I just jizzed my pants a little.
The Only One - Kevin Devine cover of Manchester Orchestra
Bad Books
Bad Books Concert
Last night i went to the Bad Books concert. Gobotron opened up which i think is a side project from the guitar player from Manchester Orchestra. Kevin Devine also played with them which was cool. They were alright.
Then came Right Away, Great Captain. It was just Andy Hull with his guitar and voice. Omg. Hearing him live… he’s so good. Omg. I teared up in the very first song!! He also played a song that’s going to be on Manchester’s next album!! Here’s a lyric i remember from it:
God gives us more than our cup can hold.
Chills.
Then Bad Books came one. Let me tell you, Andy Hull is fucking hilarious. I wasn’t sure what his strange presence would be like, but him and Kevin Devine would banter a lot and it was so funny. He even sang a song about meeting 50 Cent! Really funny.
I liked Bad Books before seeing them. Now i love them. It was so amazing. And omg… they played two Manchester Orchestra songs: Now That You’re Home and Shake it Out. You won’t believe how much the crowd roared. There were only hardcore fans there and it was epic.
I realized last night that my hair is perfect for head banging. But i woke up this morning with a sore throat (‘cause of all the screaming) and a sore neck (obvious reasons).
Long story short: Andy Hull is a musical and lyrical god.
i begged you everything - bad books
i adore this song
Gonna see Bad Books tomorrow!!
