Paper bags and plastic hearts


I had no classes yesterday, so I was given the task of fetching Mira from school.
She came into the car screaming her head off.
About how there was going to be a free BLG concert on that very night.
I was like WHUT free are you serious.
And turns out it was TRUE. O_o

So we went to Bukit Kiara and sat through four acts to reach BLG performing at 10. I was quite impressed with the second act, Aizat. I only knew one song from him, 'I Go' from the Talentime soundtrack so I had good expectations of him. He was actually really good! The live version of 'I Go' is so much more awesome than the studio version. I wish I could have it. :( I even downloaded a few of his other songs I heard at the concert. Really nice. I like 'Fikirlah'. It's got a nice melody to it.

Anyway, BLG. The main reason we went.
I have no photos to show because my phone camera quality wasn't all that great and all I got was a mess of rainbow lights and a vague impression of the band amidst the coloured chaos. But the show was AWESOME. So totally worth it, waiting four hours to watch them. They played 'Love Drunk', 'Five Minutes to Midnight', 'Thunder', 'Heels Over Head', 'Heart Heart Heartbreak', 'Hero/Heroine', 'Two Is Better Than One' ... and there was one more song which I'm not so familiar with. Overall, an excellent show.

Martin jumped across the crowd barrier and did some crowd-surfing. (!!) Too bad we were standing on the opposite side of the stage. This is the second time I watched them live, but this time they've reminded me why I fell in love with their sound when I was fifteen. :)

In other news, I'm done with my group's music video project.
First time editing by myself, whoop!
I have some stuff I'm not all that satisfied about and I won't be able to rest until we're done with the presentation. Brr.
