Agh, that's it.
Sep. 8th, 2006 05:13 pmWalking past the beergardens today, a band was doing their sound check for the performance later in the evening.
I know this: I'll never be able to attend a band concert again* without breaking down in tears in front of the stage until I can be a part of the stage.
It's not adoration.
It hurts that much.
Heck, it hurts enough to just walk by an outdoor stage.
*I've actually watched a bunch of bands before, it was that DaveFest thing at SWC that grade 12 year. Tradition has it that it's mostly speeches, dancing, and rock band performances, but I went in singing a classical piece. Anyway, I remember being clearly enthralled by the bands.

— I must believe.
— If your will is to face your past, you must believe;
If your will is to face your future, you must believe;
If your will is to face your present, you must believe ever more so.
— I must believe...
— ...that you will walk through the ruins of triumph
In a moment that must pass on the way to eternal memory.
— Ruins?
— Yes. But you know that already.

The song isn't so new to me anymore, so this version of Solitary Ground should be a lot better than the old one (you can still find the old one on my inventory). I even hit a high D for the sake of hitting it in it (albeit a little squeaky)! (I scared myself at my choir re-audition on Wednesday because I hit B-flat in practice that morning and Bob said I did E-flat at the audition.)
===
Other notable words this week:
My comments regarding the Fishmaster 'misheard lyrics' video (search YouTube for this), supposedly "for one of [my] anti-NW moments":
Bob's comment regarding my audition:
"Shortest audition in history."

My comments regarding the Fishmaster 'misheard lyrics' video (search YouTube for this), supposedly "for one of [my] anti-NW moments":
those moments are almost 24/7, really.
That's why I only listen to my own version of their songs now :P
(er...99% of the time.)
Erm...yes, I've seen the Fishmaster video before.
In fact, I saw it when it was first posted. I don't like that song.
In fact, I don't like any of the songs on that album.
It's just this - the more I think about it, the more their lyrics suck, the more Tarja sucks, the more TH is a poser, and so on and so forth. Gah.
