I started work at 12 today and outside were some people (my manager included). It's normal to see a few people milling around outside the shop on a sunny day but not around the 10 person mark.When my manager came in all shaken up, I knew something bad had happened.A young woman (21) had been standing outside the shop with her baby son in a pram. Just before I got to work a man had jumped out of a...

If you looked into someone's eyes and lost yourself completely. I mean literally, just couldn't look away from their orbs and just lost all concept of light, colour and time...If breathing in their scent made your stomach drop and your breathing stop for a second...If holding them [and them holding you back] gave you butterflies...If kissing them made you feel light, invincible almost...If every...

...The Smashing Pumpkins didn't play Zero last night.But that's all besides the point and I'm getting way ahead of myself already.So, last night, (Saturday 16th Feb) my dad took me to see the Smashing Pumpkins at the 02 Arena. Guess what?I didn't get drunk.Yeah, I know, shocker. The last gig my dad took me to, just me and him, I had 5 ciders, half a pint of beer and I passed out halfway through...

...literally, actually, because what I'm going to ramble to you all is from yesterday. Yesterday night, but what the hell......From Yesterday also happens to be the title of a certain song from a certain band called '30 Seconds to Mars' and, yeah, I saw them live last night (Weds 6th Feb) at the Hammersmith Apollo, London.I have to say, hands down, that was the insanest gig I've ever experienced...

No, I'm not actually numb. The title is a reference to the gig I went to last night [Tuesday 29th January 2008]......I went to see Linkin Park at the 02 arena, in London, and they were out of this world. I mean I knew they were going to be good, but I didn't know they were going to be that good :)So, let's start with the support band; Biffy Clyro. I've seen them twice before (once when they...

Oh my God, what a night to remember!I've seen MCR 4 times now (3 times on their tour, once when they supported Muse click here for details of all the gigs I've been to) but still, every single time, they just blow me away!Let's start with MSI. Confession:I had never heard any of their stuff before going to this gig. But I loved them anyways!Another band with loads of energy, they clicked with...

No, this journal isn't about someone who gets shot by their own son...that's just horrible.For all you Tool fans out there, you'll know it's a line of lyrics from their song Vicarious off the album 10,000 days.So what has that got to do with this journal?Well......I went to see Tool play live last night [21st August] at Brixton Academy in London.It wasn't really a gig, more of an experience. It...
