so ya, i'm hoping to bring my camera over here tomorrow and get some new pictures up on my blog... i'll try REALLY hard to get that done. and to write a really good long update post... i've been DYING to blog since i haven't been able to lately... GOSH!!! ok so a real quick update... the USO puts on alot of concerts for military, free of charge. Usually pretty big bands too! Daughtry was on Island in October, but Riley and I missed that concert. however i had been seeing signs all over base advertising the upcoming "Seether" concert, they were going to be performing on our base for free as part of the USO concert series... i mentioned this to Sam and told her Riley LOVED that band, so i would be sad going to the concert without him... however when it came down to it, i knew that he would be excited and happy for me if i did things while he was gone... he'll feel left out, but he wants to know that i haven't stopped living because he's gone.
Anyway, it was a BLAST! There were soooo many drunk Marines, the poor guys probably won't remember the concert now that the weekend is over... such a shame. they played a bunch of good songs, one of my all time favorites "Broken" they played acoustic, i'll include a video so you know the song.
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph; I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain
‘cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel light when you’re gone away
The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There’s so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain
‘cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away
‘cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel light when you’re gone away
Amy Lee, sadly was NOT there, but it was still a pretty good performance of the song. that was like the ONLY slow song they played, and if you don't know the band, you should totally check them out! i'll put up a few pictures from the concert. it's now been raining here for 2 days straight, and not just raining... it's been POURING! i looove it! plus i get to wear my AWESOME Zebra rain boots... watch out for my post coming up about my rainy day activities with Deezul.
Seether Performing |
Me in front of the stage, we were only like 30 ft from the band |
Sam, Me, and her youngest |
The Bassist for the band... definitely the stud of the group :) |
Lucky you got to see Seether! When they went to 29 I was home visiting my parents haha. I'm sorry my laptop cleaning services didn't fix it ha, I'm learning it was a temporary fix because suddenly my keyboard is really freaking out. And Broken is one of my all time favorites!
