times seem to be changing. i find myself engulfed in a much more packed schedule and random weeks that seem to be compleatly empty. luckily my vacation was filled with some fun activities which in the end changed what i once truly believed in.
GREEN DAY:
they were technically my first well known band and well i loved them. i was able to be loyal to them for years and recently i found a folder containing pictures of them and a CD given to me by an old friend. while listening to American Idiot i found that wow i grew quite a bit. i used to be extremely biased to who i hung out with. if you didnt follow my traits i would sincerely try to level you out of my group. but oh green day look at us now. when i re listend to those songs i found a more deep meaning in them, as though my level of understanding had never truly reached the song lyrics. i found that Boulevard of Broken Dreams was not some sloppy reason to cut myself along with friends, it was a statement of having to face the world alone and without reinforcement, about having ppl thinking you are done for and rising up against them. well, maybe i'm wrong but just like back then i may just see it that way, :D
RHCP:
The Red Hot Chilli Peppers and i have a very short history. truth is i didnt really know them untill about a few years ago i didnt know them, but recently i feel as though they have highlighted a majority of my highschool feelings. with the release of their new single "With You" i seemed to have found the rythm of my new life. I have constantly listend to their music for an emotional release from my situations and well this new cd has helped me cope alot with the past problems i have had. i did cry though due to the fact that like all other songs they have made, i tend to remember memories of friends and past loves. even so, this cd and the event at venice beach proved to me that its not bad to remember the past bt its not good to dwell and hold grudges to something that quite frankly, is long gone.
Deadmau5:
hahaha what would i do without the mau5? I attended the Los Angeles Venue and well i guess all i can say is that, i loved it. i was once biased to all types of music besides "My Rock Music" so i never was truly able to explore the world of electronic music but when i opened the door to daft punk, gosh, i was able to discover all these wonderful things. when i found out that Deadmau5 was coming to LA i immediately bought tickets. i decided "you know what? i'm tired of people telling me who to listen to or which EMP is better and shit, ima see deadmau5. turns out its for the best. loved it. and well now I'm addicted. hahaha so much for saying i wasnt a Deadmau5 fan, turns out i am.
In conclusion, well its obvious. i went from being completely idiotic to growing up. i am a person compleatly influenced by music and art. at times i may not be original but then again who can be truly original in a world that is completely made of make believe items??? thank you so much.
