A Metric Concert And More...

So I have come to realize that I can not always keep the promise of blogging everyday like I first said I would.  I will blog very often though let me correct myself and say, sometimes it is just hard to blog everyday and since I am very forgetful I just sometimes forget to.  Anyways I know I haven't blogged since Friday morning or was it Thursday? I really can't remember (see I told you I was forgetful), but i was really busy this weekend so I have a good excuse.  I had went to my aunt's house like I said in y last post that I was going to do and it was pretty fun.  My cousin and I went to her high school['s football game which was crazy due to the fact that they have tailgate parties in the parking lot (I mean really, it's high school) and we just chilled out at the house playing the best card game ever Skipbo! It's better than poker in my opinion. We went to Carolina Place (which is an awesome mall by the way) and of course I had to buy something and even though the lady at one of the stores I went to charged me twice for only one pair of earrings I had my cousin sort it all out (Since I hate talking to cashiers and what not) and ended up getting a store credit card.  I would have rather just had my money back since it was their mistake, but you know companies these days.  Anyways, Sunday we went thrifting at my favorite thrift store here which I found some amazing Daisy Tights! I know right isn't that awesome! and a cool studded jacket for only 8 bucks!  Monday I went to school as usual, but whenever I got home Aaron picked me up because we were both going to a Metric concert that night in Charlotte.  Can I just express my ultimate love for that band over anything else.  They are just fantastic and their lyrics and nusic actually means something and has a purpose compared to a lot of the music on the radio today.  I just love underground bands more than anything else and Metric is just a band I think I will love forever!  But anyways, they were just great live and Emily Haines just seems so cool to me I can't get over it.  There was a band that went on before them as well called Half Moon Run.  They are a new band since they just released their first studio album, but they were also just wonderful.  I think that maybe I have a sweet spot for bands that include keyboard in their range of instruments.  They could all sing and play drums, guitar, they even included harmonica.  At the end of the concert they were handing out free posters too and even autographed them it was just so cool and down to earth.  Since I know that some of you reading this might not have a clue what I am talking about I decided to include some of their music down below.  I did take some live videos of the show but since I am way too lazy to upload it now I'll just include some videos of the songs they played, I might include the live videos in a later post who knows? But anyways (I just noticed I've been saying that a lot in this post) enjoy!
This is one of their more popular songs of the band Half Moon Run.  They played this song live and can I just say fantastic!


I was hoping going into this concert that they would play this song.  I didn't think it was possible since it was from 3 albums ago, but they did and I was dancing throughout the whole thing I'm not embarrassed to say.
