Nothing like seeing a band live.
Especially when you love them more than you did walking in.

I've always been a fan of Manchester Orchestra, but now it's like I truly fell in love with them. Sure I would listen to the handful songs I had from them recommended from various friends, but now...now it's true love. I've never appreciated them like I do now and all of you, yes all of you need to, too. Andy Hull, singer/songwriter/guitarist, writes some of the most honest lyrics and his voice is so raw and fierce. I went to go see them in Charlotte on a whim and I'm so glad I did. I even walked out with their newest album on vinyl, Simple Math.
In other news,
+ I am officially home for the Thanksgiving holiday.
+ I did photography for my first wedding reception. Preview pictures to come!
+ I am looking forward to gaining 10+ pounds this week.+ I've downloaded some new fonts & gotten new music. Both of which make me extremely happy!
+ I leave you with "Deer" by Manchester Orchestra and you'll understand my love. It is the first song on their new album. [Sorry, no actual music video for this song]
I have a bit of their of music, but never really listen to them. I'll have to give them a try! Sounds like you had a wonderful time. Hope your break is relaxing!! Can't wait to see your photos :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you did a bit of blog redesign as well- it looks great! And your post makes me want to fall in love with Manchester Orchestra all over again too :) There was this song that they put out a few years ago, "Don't Let Them See You Cry," and ever since then I've just been sold. Andy Hull's voice is just so pure/vulnerable. Love it.
ReplyDeleteAnd oh goodness, I'm mentally preparing myself for the inevitable weight gain that is sure to come along with this holiday. I just hope my jeggings are forgiving!
niice...I'll definitely have to check out more songs. thanks for sharing!

I have until Tuesday night and then I'll be on break! Cannot wait. I'm not looking forward to the tire that will be placed along my waist. Happy eating! haha
ReplyDeleteI saw them in September! They opened up for Blink 182 and My Chemical Romance. I remember them being so good.
ReplyDeleteAnd I can't wait to see your photography of the wedding!
