It's bloody cold outside! This does not make me happy at all, even if I do have some really cute sweaters that I am now able to wear.... No, I'm not happy because my apartment is an icebox. And no matter how many layers of clothes I wear, I'm still cold. Ugh.
In other news, I'm going to a concert!!! I get to see Travis and Maximo Park in two weeks time, which is a big deal for me, seeing as how I don't go out during the week. Although, Ben and I did try to eat at Dosa's last week, but decided to walk over to Farina's instead of wait 45 minutes for a table for two. After seeing the bill, I probably would have been OK waiting 45 minutes. If we're being honest here.... But back to the concert - - you should check out the music of both bands! They are great live bands. Kinda like Jimmy Eat World or The Shins. You don't really envision them as knock-you-out-of-your-seat bands, but they are! Well, so are Travis and Maximo Park!
I saw Travis a few years back, when they opened for Dido (who, um, wasn't very good live). Nobody knew who they were, except for me, and now they've got someone else opening for them! What a difference four years makes... And Maximo Park to boot! They are by far my favorite band of late, alongside Mando Diao and Goose. And they're more the speed of Mando Diao than Goose. Goose is WAY more electro, whereas Maximo Park is a little more Kooks-ish.
Stop me while I can still breathe...
