Cant believe its past this time of year again. This year has gone by so quickly.
Hope everyone is well and had a good halloween and a safe bonfires night.
Im going to just jump right into this post and tell you what i done for them both.
On halloween, I was lucky enough to get some tickets to see Shinedown at the HMV Picturehouse in Edinburgh. The support acts were Exit Ten and Redlight King (Redlight King), before the gig I had never heard of either of these bands.
I never got to hear much of Exit Ten, as they had already started before I had got inside the venue. Which for me is weird as I got inside the venue around 10 minutes after the door opened. So I couldn't really accumulate a sense of what they are like as a band and what their music is like.
On the other hand though, I did kinda love Redlight King, first time hearing any of their songs and seeing them play live. I would go and see them again if the toured close enough to me.
Then the main act came on Shinedown, myself personally I don't think there were enough words to describe how intense the gig was, but it was so inspiring and motivating. I've never been to a gig that has done that before. Brent Smith does definitely has a way with words and his southern american voice easily got inside my head and spoke to me. They played a good mixture of their songs between the new album, Amaryllis and their earlier 3 albums.
They put both of favourite songs together on the setlist so I had quite a crazy 10 minutes, but totally worth it. I might put up the videos I got on to my youtube.
This is definitely one band i think everyone should see live. I will most definitely be seeing them live again, when they come back to the UK.
Bonfire Night
On bonfire night, I went to see some local display of fireworks, with family. My four year old nephew absolutely loved them and giggled all the way through the 35 minute display. They were beautiful and the location was is normally picturesque when in daylight, as its about 5 metres away from the local beach. There was definitely around 200+ people out to watch them. To make it better, they were free to watch. So that does make for a very happy Marion, Ha.
thanks guys
