Silversun PickupsWhat a year that was! New bands, old bands with new albums, concerts, festivals, new friends... Lovely combination. And it's always useful to have a journal that can capture some of that.
The top 5 charts have been a very intresesting struggle, ever since we watched high fidelity, so this is what I would like to do, concert-wise, album-wise and song-wise.
A chalenge that I think I can only start at the moment, will need some thinking to finish though.
So lets see...
Top 5 Concerts 2009
1. Blur at Hyde Park - the long waited reunion of Blur lasted for several concerts, i was lucky enough to go to one of Hyde Park's shows, a massive flashback of me, my life and experience years ago. Very nice when this happens, concert of a band that you listened to long time ago, a band that did not release much afterwards and suddenly you go to a concert that was supposed to be attended back then but with all the songs that you're used to and that you love :) And Damon was so carying and romantic, "Look at the sun, the next song is for the sun..." or something about taking care of each other and drive safe home :)
2. Peter Doherty in Perpignian - it's really hard to express what it was for me ...
3. Oasis in Vienna - I just can't miss the last Oasis show now that the band is gone
Oh, now it's getting tougher but I need to choose, I came down to 3 concerts and need to pick two so...
4. Clawfinger at Spirit of Burgas - even though it was part of a festival this concert deserves a spot here. it was experince of flashbacks... Flashbacks of songs, flashbacks of old friends gathered together, flashback of what we were and mostly still are. I really don't regret not going to Editors that night ...
5. Radiohead in Praha - it's seems that the overwhealming emotions are my trigger to remember and appreciate the concerts I go to. And Radiohead are a band that certainly take out your emotions, as soon as
There There the tears were all over my face. And from then on it was all one big feeling ... if you've been there you know what i mean
