So, here I sit with my half-painted nails. I mean, the left's painted but the right's not. If you get what I mean. Just read a bit of Franz Ferdinand's Band Blog. It's good they have this kinda stuff. It lets fans get to know a bit more about them. My current nail polish is... GREEN! Oh, haha... don't worry about me turning into a witch. I ain't going nowhere to evil-witchy-fairy-land. I'm just trying out a new colour. My computer's so crashy. Oh gosh, IT's TRASHY, I mean. I started at 12pm, and had to keep re-starting it till 1.40pm. What A crappy thing to do. I think it's infected with a virus... Poor little guy.
So I have to do all these things like writing blogs in a low-colour, super-enlarged, blinking screen. Oh! What a bother. Oh yea! Just a bit on the one-night-only, sold-out Franz Ferdinand concert I went with Hong Yong. We had gotten the $48 tickets just the night before and went there cheerfully, with super angst on meeting one of our favourite bands. I love their heart-pumping, adrenaline-filled way of expressing themselves through fast, non-stopping and amazing music. Where'd they get all their ideas from? Some songs don't even make much sense. But mostly, of course, the word "chim" English comes to mind to Singaporeans on these "Ang-mohs" from Scotland. Their music is good! That's why I'm listening to them. The concert was one hell of a good rock concert man, all the way from "This Boy" to "This Fire", every single song is filled with so much energy, bursting at the seams. Really, no wonder they're so popular, having so many sold-out concerts. A pity I couldn't fork out enough money to buy free standing tickets. We could have had received a greater impact of the whole show. We had to use the binoculars to be able to see their smiling faces.
Well, there's something really funny I ought to tell you all. During the concert, frontman Alex Kapranos(I can never figure out how to pronounce his surname) told every single person in the Indoor Stadium to go the the Intercontinental Hotel after the concert, well, that's obviously the hotel that they were staying in at that time, and bring food too, into the foyer(actually, "the lobby") and have a FOOD PARTY. Well, nothing funny yet huh? The funny part is, the night before their concert, they had a tiff with the General Manager because they brought food into the hotel. So it was "revenge" they were seeking. It's rather funny though. I didn't go. Well, should have gone. I could have met them up close and gotten their autographs. But it's okay. As long as their not dead, I can still get good music from them. I saw, in the Newpaper, the hotel was packed with over 100 fans and the place was a total riot. How funny. Lots of hugs and signings. Oh, what a bother. A regret that I didn't go, but it doesn't matter now. I've got lots of things to do. Helping out at my parent's store at Lido, waiting for the results of the posting of my Polytechnic course etc.
That's about all... So, until next time, have fun...(oh what the heck, I'll just finish polishing my nails).
Go see concert photos!
