you eyes have wept a thousand tears...

I saw BRMC this past weekend when I was Chicago and words can't even describe how amazing the show was. Proper post about it later but for now, this song "Fire Walker" (and yes I do have a serious obsession with Twin Peaks)...what a hell of an opener. Rob's lyrics are just so amazing to me and just brings out  many emotions especially when I think of that one special person, the one that I lost my grip on and want to know what all went wrong; the what's, how's and why's? Don't we all wonder that, even if it is not with a love one, just life itself begs the question. Maybe were all too blind to see...

ph. Me  (Chicago 17th May, The Vic taken on my mobile)

"And maybe I'm too blind to see,
The fire is all that walks with me.
And maybe I'm too starved and weak
But what's inside of you's the same as me."

 I hope you guys like the new layout. Still toying around with things, but for now I think I like it. I am going to TRY and update a lot more. So keep checking and please comment and let me know how you like certain things! I have a few fun posts in the works for summer that will be followed by a playlist. Get excited. I know I am.

take them on, on your own

Quick break from the delayed NYE posts (part 5, the final part coming at chuuuu soon) to share this. 

I have so much love for this band. If it weren't for this band I wouldn't have met some of the people that inspire me and so much of my work today.

Very excited for their new album. 

This is directed by the endlessly talented Malia.

I am not sure if I need to link these photos back to flickr, or it does it go without saying that I took these polaroids on the blog, unless stated otherwise, these are ALL my photos. Just wanted to clarify.

Anyways, story time. BRMC is another band I did not get to see during SXSW. I HEARD BRMC whilst sitting in a alley at a show I couldn't get into because they reached capacity but didn't actually see them. Again, what band did I actually see, and how many times did I watch Twilight while in Austin? I did manage to throw in some X-Files and Twin Peaks watching while I was there but yeah mainly really horrible movies were watched like Twilight and um *cough* Spice World *cough*

Whatever, I have no shame. Those movies are classics, they will stand the test of time. You just wait.

But bringing it back to BRMC, from what I HEARD it sounded pretty awesome and I wished I planned it better and actually got to see them perform the new songs and see the new drummer, Leah, rock it out.

I had planned on seeing them in St. Louis the day after I got back from Austin but wasn't feeling well, therefore couldn't go, even though my friend was offering me a ride and I could sleep the whole time, I just couldn't muster any energy/strength to go.

Well, turns out my friend told the band this and the band told my friend to call me and tell me they wish I were able to be at the the show and they love my photographs and they hope I feel better soon and that they hope it was nothing serious.

*cue the "awwwwwwsss"*

I mean SERIOUSLY! That was really sweet.

Now, not to be outdone by The Veils who also sent me a message. That shall be saved for another post.

i thread the needle through, you beat the devil's tattoo

Watch my girl Malia Jame's directorial debut for the new BRMC single "Beat The Devil's Tattoo."

It's pretty damn cool. I strongly suggest you watch it.

sleeping on a razor, there's nowhere left to fall

BRMC are using one of my photographs on their site!

(yes, I still get really excited about these sort of things.)

as sure as the sun
