Good-bye Trent

Posted on May 21st, 2009 in Joy of Zen by joyofzen

Last night I might have attended my last NIN concert ever : ( I really hope that Trent will come back later on after he’s done pursuing other things.  I missed him opening and could give a long story about an a-hole who made us late… but I’m gonna leave it out.  They didn’t play Gave Up, which is my fave, but they played my second fave, Wish.  I also enjoyed Head like a Hole and Survivalism a lot.  I’m not really into his slow stuff.  There were a couple slowish ones I liked, but I’d rather jump up and down and rock out.

It was a solid performance, but I really wish I could relive the show at Soma in San Diego.  I swear there is never going to be a concert that ranks higher than that one.  Trent is so talented with music and lyrics.  NIN is my favorite band and I can’t see that ever changing.

I was gonna leave after NIN with my friends who I came with but Ronnie came to the show, so I stayed through Jane’s Addiction.  Perry is nuts man, and he seems to love attention.  He also seemed to want to please his fans though, so that’s good.  I like him more than that band.  I liked two of their songs, and another two were okay.  The rest I was indifferent about.  The most entertaining thing was him talking.  The most enjoyable thing was seeing how much Ronnie was into the music; he looked like me during NIN : )

One thing Trent didn’t do enough was talk.  I think he’s talked more at every other show I’ve seen of his.  And I actually expected him to be more chatty this time, since he’s supposedly all happy and in love.  So that was disappointing.

It was a fun night with a variety of friends.

Quick Update

Posted on May 12th, 2009 in Joy of Zen by joyofzen

Biggest news is that I’m freaking THIRTY years old now. Nuts. School is hard as usual this quarter. I started getting sick last Friday and have just gotten worse each day. Ugh. I had some pho earlier which sorta made me feel a lil’ better. I didn’t go to work or school today : ( Takes a lot for me to call in, but there was NO way I was gonna be able to move. I missed my favorite class too : ( the special ed one. Sigh.
I was pretty cheerful before I got sick, so that was good. Will hopefully get back to that again. I need to finish this powerpoint thing for class; haven’t decided if I should do it tonight or in the morning. I just have no energy. I hope you’re all doing good : )
