Last Night I Fell In Love With A Voice

Last night I went to the David Gray concert with the lovely Kristen Gupta. She really wanted to go and had asked me to go with her a few months ago... I said "sure, why not" even though I only really know three of his songs... but I enjoy concerts and thought it'd be a fun time.

I was pleasantly surprised. It was definitely one of the best concerts I've been to in a while. Aside from the gross drunk guy a few rows down who kept standing up, shouting, and pretending to play the piano... it was a great show. The band was very talented, and David Gray's voice is just amazing! I'm now on a mission to get his latest CD, and I'll definitely go see him again.

Unfortunatly, I missed the Mike Doughty concert on Wednesday night.

Feeling better these days. Such is the rollercoaster of life, I guess. I just decided to be proactive about my own happiness, if that makes any sense.

The Beatles are singing to me

Feeling a bit lost. John, Paul, George, and Ringo can speak for me.

Help! - The Beatles (excerpt)

... When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors.

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me.

And now my life has changed in oh so many ways,
My independence seems to vanish in the haze.
But every now and then I feel so insecure,
I know that I just need you like I've never done before.
