Music is Life!!

Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing

Thanks for all the joy they're bringing

Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty

What would life be?

Without a song or a dance, what are we?

So I say thank you for the music

For giving it to me!!!!!!!

Music I currently like (Most of these bands I like because I went to Vans Warped Tour in SLC with my son on June 28th) It was very cool to be there, minus all the tatoo freaks, but it was so very hot outside:


We the Kings - You need to check these guys out. Their album is so very good. Every song is a story that you want to hear over and over. The band signed autographs for Ethan and he was so excited. They signed a picture for him and his Vans t-shirt.



The Academy is - I have not listened to the album yet, but the band was great. They were very upbeat.



Cobra Starship - Minus the swearing, this band is so very high energy. They were the best at the Warped tour in showmanship. My son loves these guys. I do not blame him.


Others from the tour I like currently are Color Me Fred, and Reel Big Fish.

Bands I am currently listening to a lot are Something Corporate, Jack's Mannequin(Something Corporate's lead singer), Secondhand Serenade, and Death Cab for Cuties' new album.

I love music!!!! It puts joy and sunshine in my little life when there is so much gloom and darkness around at times.

I am going to several concerts in the next few weeks. I am very excited. My next concert is going to be the Flobots - July 18th at the Avalon(Yes, I know they are very angry individuals and have so much angst, politically speaking, but they are fun to listen to), John Mayer/Colbie Calliet - July 21st at USANA (Who I am currently living with roped me into this one. I am not a huge fan of either one of the performers, but it will still be a fun time.), and Secondhand Serenade - August 23rd at the Murray Theater(I missed them last time they were here at Thanksgiving Point, but he is coming back. His songs are my life story now and I feel solace listening to him.) I am going to also try to visit the Gallivan Centers concerts when I get a chance. I will not be able to go this week because I am going to Ethan's scout camp in the middle of this week. My next pictures will come from scout camp. How fun!!!!
