Helena Bonham Carter

But in the meantime, I have a new celebrity crush:

Helena Bonham Carter

I love her style, but it is so hard to emulate. And I don't have the guts to dress like her.

Her Vivienne Westwood dress as the Golden Globes was incredible.

I've been listening to the Sweeney Todd soundtrack nonstop, even though I haven't seen the movie. I love hearing her sing, more like a singing & speaking voice. But that's soon on my Netflix and this weekend I am going to see The Kings Speech.

I really must catch up on my posts

When I get the time:

Coachella 2010 Line-Up

The line up was released last week and I already bought my three days pass.

I am so incredibly excited for this Coachella.

Good Bye Alexa

The last show of It's On With Alexa Chung EVER was last Thursday. I will miss this show terribly. But MTV says we might see her soon on another show? Confusing.

at the Great American Music Hall

One of the greatest shows I have ever been too. The venue is beautiful.

Fool's Gold opened up for them, and although they were very good, I think their set went over a bit too long. The main thing restricting it being the best show ever, was that I did not know all of the lyrics prior to the concert, although now I do. But even only know lyrics to a few of the songs, I still had an amazing time. Sorry for the quality of the photos, they are from my phone.

"Jade is the girl of the hour."

Highlight of the evening: the very last song when Alex asked that as many people as could fit, to come sit up on the stage and everyone else sit down and we all sang "Brother" together. I was such a calm moment in time, it felt like a dream. Then after the song I hugged Alex and Jade.

"Still singing, his tune"

We were at the very front and there are tables between the stage at audience and Alex walked across them, and everyone (including us) was grabbing his arms and legs.

I found a few videos online of the performance. This person must have been standing right next to me, because from the angle, that was right near where I was. Right up at the front off of the side a little. Enjoy:

Treasure Island Music Festival

The Arctic Monkeys

September 16, 2009. I saw them at the Fox Theater and wow was it amazing!

I didn't bring a camera, but I was able to take a few very quality photos with my phone.

The Like opened up for them, they were pretty bad. Other than all of their songs sounding very similar, every single lyric was just a day to day term or a common expression of life lessons. "Never going back and forth, only going forward" repeated 10 times each chorus, and that is a Like song. Even though I am not a huge fan, it was pretty cool when we met them after the show and the drummer said she liked my shirt.

We met some cool people at the concert, stared at the beautiful Alex Turner, and soaked up the amazing music. It was a fabulous night.
