Keane - Under the Iron Sea



Two tracks from the upcoming album was leaked to the internet recently (what else is new?). They are "Atlantic" and "Is It Any Wonder?" Both amazing songs and very different compared to their debut album "Hopes and Fears". I do look forward to this album. Looks like i will be spending a lot of $ on CDs again this summer. :P

Death Cab for Cuties / Franz Ferdinand Live

Death Cab for Cuties / Franz Ferdinand Live @ the Calgary Corral 06.04.26

I remember last year when I saw the Killers I said to Gigi that i wish FF would do a live show in Calgary. I waited for another year and finally they were here last nite along with Death Cab for Cutie! Along with an opening act that we completely missed (the Cribs), which i hope i wont be kicking myself in the future if they turn out to be a cool band. I really dont understand what the organizer of the show is thinking when they put the two bands in the same show together, cuz FF and DC are very different in style, one's got really catchy beat, and one is more of the mellow type. DC is actually not too bad of a band, but their songs simply lacks the energy to get the audience going when it's performed live. Since i wasnt so familar with DC's songs, i find the performance a little boring, but DC does have a good lead vocal who didnt crack and screwed up as much as Alex :P

Needless to say, the FF part of the show was awesome! They sang all my fave songs and rocked the crowd with their amazing stage presence. The best part of the concert was when the guys from DC and the Cribs joined FF on stage and did this cool drums sequence together! Overall it was a great show and I was a happy kid with my new band tee. :D

Just hope that there will be more cool bands coming to Calgary!

Our seats aren't too bad....

Franz Ferdinand!

Just came back from the gig; it was pretty awesome! I LOVE FF!!!! Now waiting for my hair to dry out completely before going to bed. Still gotta go to work tmr. :(

To be continued....

How?

The weather's been pretty good lately, but i am still complaining. The difference in temperature between mornings and evenings is about 15 degrees or more. So how do i dress myself so i keep myself warm in the morning and make sure i wont bake myself on the C-train when I go home in the evening? Pretty annoying indeed.

Tuen Ng Festival is not until May 31, 2006, which means that I won't be able to pack up my winter clothes until then. Gotta believe in that old Chinese wisdom ...

Franz Ferdinand will be here next week! Definitely something that I look forward to.
