SUTS 2010 volume II
So I'm doing a two-fer blog for both last night's John Williams concert and tonight's Piano Men concert. Why? BECAUSE I CAN.
( John Williams is pretty much the man. ) -
SUTS 2010!
Oh hello again! Resuscitatin' the old LJ to talk about the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra's Symphony Under the Sky festival. My mom and I have been going to this festival together since it first began! We missed only 2006, when I moved to Boston over the long weekend. Speaking of my mom, you can follow her on Twitter for her opinions of Symphony ( Read more... ) -
Fat is a state of mind...?
Yeah, so I know I said I probably wasn't going to blog about my life anymore... but I guess I lied. Here I am!
( I think, somehow, sort of, that I kind of understand how anorexic girls can look in the mirror and think to themselves that they're fat. Maybe. ) -
Late Night with Bill Eddins
So... I haven't written anything here in a long time. Obviously. Since the last time I did blogging for the ESO, in fact. And that's why I'm here again - seems silly to start a whole new one just for ESO stuff at this point, though in the future, it may be something I do. Who knows! But for now, here I am ( Read more... ) -
Cannons and Solstices

( Some rants about concert etiquette. ) -
Opera mania!
Blogging Under the Sky again tonight... ha, you new LJ friends didn't know what you were getting yourselves into! :)
Okay, who else out there thinks that new ESO Resident Conductor Maestro Lucas Waldin should have had some more stage time? Like, a lot more stage time. I do. (Actually, I already tweeted kind of along this vein this afternoon, ( Read more... ) -
Music making!
Well, I'm dustin' off my bloggin' shoes. (Yeah, I know it's been a while since I've written, but now I'm blogging under the sky again, so somebody's expecting something of me. Maybe. I dunno.) Awesome! Symphony under the Sky always feels so much more like the new year than January 1st ever could. Summer's over, it's time to get down to business ( Read more... ) -
Linksies.
Just wanted to share this one ( Read more... ) -
Challenge
The challenge is this - I have to write ten songs in three weeks, and record them myself on my computer. Just to have them, just to say I did them. The idea is quantity, not quality. I keep wanting to write songs (as differentiated from "compositions" by the fact that they contain lyrics) but I feel so dismally lacking in my ability to write ( Read more... )
