The newest teen pop sensation
She literally trended on Twitter all day. If this happens every Friday... Her voice *shutters* is so nasally when she says Friday. Don't get me started on the songwriting.

We Are Defiance - Trust in Few [debut album]
I'm sorry, but are individual album release topics necessary? I mean, even the ones from fairly well known bands hardly make it to two pages (King of Limbs, The Suburbs, and Wasting Light to name a few) not to mention bands that the average Music, Movies & Television visitor will probably never listen to. (This, What Separates Me From You, and Marrow of the Spirit come to mind from recently) Don't take this personally, as it's not directed at you. I just think that we should have some centralized place to discuss music releases and maybe even news/tour/festival announcements, because these topics just tend to clutter up the front page.

The Killers are good indie rock? The KILLERS!? Oh lord. If you do actually like really indie stuff try Neutral Milk Hotel. Not everyone's thing, but truly amazing. Yeah, the Killers are definitely indie rock. Why are you criticizing my taste in music? That just doesn't make sense. They have plenty of good songs. I think Neutral Milk Hotel is meh anyway. Indie Music: "In music, independent music, often shortened to indie music or "indie", is a term used to describe independence from major commercial record labels, subsidiaries and an autonomous" If you are talking about "the killers" I know of they aren't indie rock. thats just being really gay. search the term for rnb, the rnb today doesnt stick to it. but music genres evolve and its commonly accepted that indie is like hipstery rock pop bands. like the strokes :) my mates just got into the recording industry and he uses indy music in the way u quote it, and its just irritating! the fact it comes form an independant label says nothing about the genre or sound.. so lets just say the killers are indie \:D/ [/hide] Indie? No. Rock? Pushing it. Pop? Yes. Anyway personal opinions will vary. I'd have to agree. Especially their most recent album from what I've heard.

Live Concerts
Keller Williams concert was ok. It was fun for about 45 minutes, but after that it just got repetitive. We left early. My quest this week is to get tickets to see the National for their homecoming concert in May. So my spring will hopefully consist of seeing Queens of the Stone Age, The National, and the Black Keys. Best. Spring. Ever.

Over of course. The custodians on campus here always put it under when they clean our bathrooms. I always have to change it.

Live Concerts
Double post, blah blah blah. Contrary to the above post, the Black Keys are not being opened by Cage the Elephant. Instead, they're being opened by Booker T. Jones (from Booker T and the MG's). I'm really excited to see a music legend like him live. Hopefully he'll play a song or two with the Black Keys too since this is his only date with them! Anyways, I just bought tickets to see Keller Williams on Friday. He's an acoustic guitarist/multi-instrumentalist who uses a lot of looping devices during his shows. Yes, it's a gimmick, but it should be fun. Going with my father and my little brother (they're picking me up from school for Spring Break). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAI3QgssxKA

Jealous! He's going to be in town the exact day my family and I leave for vacation. I seriously contemplated staying home an extra night to attend and then just fly to South Carolina the next day. I'm basically finished with everything leading up to Spring Break. It's in the low 50's outside and I'm feeling great.

The Black Keys with Cage the Elephant on June 10th in Indianapolis. Presale for tickets starts tomorrow. Hopefully my 3rd time seeing them. :pray: 1 day before I leave for vacation. What great timing I've been having with concerts these days! (QOTSA in Chicago while my brother has a choir concert there that same weekend and now this) EDIT: Got em!

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
That's some fairly deep stuff. First off, I would find a way to get rid of that journal, but make sure she has the chance to get it back. Possibly take it to the lost and found and approach her later in the day. "Hey, I was looking for a binder of mine in the lost and found and I saw a notebook in there with your name on it. Did you lose one?" Do you care about this person in the way that you'd want to date them? Obviously I don't know if you're close with her other than your attempts at making her laugh, but if you do, you know what makes her tick now. Make her feel cared for, like she's important in your life. Make her life worth living for, because knowing that you're special to someone else can mean more than anything in the world.
