All the Worlds a Stage.

I know I haven't updated this in so long. So, here it is, a nice; I guess you can say big update on some music.
I'm going to start off with the Vans Warped Tour. A few weeks ago they announced their summer 2012 tour dates. If you want to know if they're coming anywhere near you check it out on their website. They haven't yet announced who will be on the tour yet but that'll be coming up in the coming weeks. Sometime at the beginning of December. It'll be announced on their website the list of bands that will be on tour. However, I did go on a looking spree and was curious on some of the rumor bands that will be on tour.
This list of bands as rumors looks pretty legit and can't wait to see what happens. If so, I could say that I'm very stoked to see Taking Back Sunday and New Found Glory.
Tickets don't go on sale until spring. Although, last year was the first year that they had a Holiday package to order at Christmas. All of the details for that will be coming soon on their website.

I came across a post that was leaked through twitter saying that "so far the Warped tour list is looking like last years minus The Dangerous Summer and All Time Low are playing Main Stage."
We'll have to wait and see what happens! I'm not going to say who said this, if you're that curious on knowing, the power of google!


Canadians Courage My Love and Down with Webster both just recently came out with new albums.
On Halloween Courage my Love EP For Now and Down with Webster Time to Win Vol II both came out. I do have to say, they're both worth getting and they're fantastic. There isn't much to say about how great the EP and album are. They're both fantastic and should be on your must check out list. You can get both of them on I-tunes. Courage my  Love currently doesn't have hard copies in stores just yet. If you want a hard copy of their EP either order on their website or you can get it at one of their shows. They now ship world wide.
Courage my Love for Now EP is 6.93$ and worth to buy.
Down with Webster Deluxe version is at 12.99$. These both groups did amazing jobs and I'm looking forward for more from them.

Make up and a New Trend

If you're from Canada then you well know of the Much Music show New.Music.Live. The three ladies on that show, Kathleen, Phoebe and Lauren gave a make up tutorial for the girls to have their look. Someone meshed up Phoebes part. The the whole video can be found on the music music website. 

If you're out of the country, I don't know if you can watch the whole video, but you can go check if it'll load for you.

Also, if you're out of the country you can watch N.M.L. on the much music website LIVE. from Monday to Friday (unless it's a holiday or a day off) from 5:00PM 6:00PM EASTERN time. They do music headlines, play new music, mostly the Hip hop/dance/alternative stuff. They interview bands,actors,actress' and musicians at times. They have a live audience too and to get in, it's 16+ plus. They open the window open at the streets so that anyone can stop and watch.

A new hair style for girls is like what Phoebe Dykstra has. It's shaven on one side, which recently she decided

to let it grow out for a change.

There's a new trend going around. It's called Spirit Hoods. You know those new hats that are animals? Yes, they look so warm and fuzzy. They're not real fur at all and they're adorable.

You can get them at the Spirit Hood website. I would imagine Hot Topic would sell them WAY cheaper. If you're in Canada, You can get a black cat hood at Amnesia or a Leopard Hood and I think it's either a grey cat or a wolf hood at D-Tox. Amnesia and D-Tox lately combined they're stuff so whatever you find on the Amnesia website, you'll probably find it at a D-Tox store.

Old Schooling it.

I'm going to go on a little bit of an old school post here.

 Have you ever heard of a Canadian band called Down With Webster? They're huge over here in Canada and their music is amazing. They just released a new single called 'Big Wheels' from their upcoming album called Time To Win Vol 2. It hits stores on October 31st 2011.

The video is all about old school more popular Nintendo games and I love how they put it all together the way they did. I love their unique style going on that they have and they're creativity is pretty much massive. I still remember playing some of the games as a kid that they based their video on.

Facebook.

There's something I'm pretty stoked about, New Found Glory have been around for many of years. I remember listening to them back when I was about 15 years old and they where around for a while even back then. They have a 6th album coming out and they just released a new song called "I'm not the one". You can listen to it over at Kroq Radio. They also released a song called "Dump" from the new album.

You can listen to "Dump" over at Kroq Radio as well. The new album Radiosurgery comes out October 3th 2011. The whole album is streaming over at Alt. Press. To unlock the songs, just remove the pieces in the radio that don't belong. Just make sure you don't get electrocuted! I do have to say even though it's a typical New Found glory album, I still love it and love them.
Facebook. 

If you haven't caught it, I know this isn't old school but, Tonight Alive released a new video for their song 'Let It Land'.

They also did a music sampler of the songs and made a clip out of all the songs. You can listen to it over at their website.

So far, I like what I hear and I can't wait to get a hold of a copy of the new album!
Facebook.

 

In 8 years, Blink-182 new album Neighborhoods is FINALLY out now on I-tunes and in stores.

You can get a deluxe copy for 11.99$. they also have a standard album but who wants a standard album when you can go deluxe! I have to say, it's really different and I find it +44 meets Angels and Airwaves and you don't hear much of Blink-182 in the new songs. It's going to get some time to get use to it but, hey it's start from a long time of being absent and I am actually glad that they're back.They just released a new video for Hearts All Gone that they records at a recent concert in Atlanta.

I know I said on my first blog that I probably would blog some of my photography but now that I think of it, you can just check it out on my website that I made. The link is direct on the first blog if you want to check it out. It's all my photography. It may not be the greatest but it is a working process. I need to get inspired somehow and to take pictures of different things.


*Warning - You can perhaps expect this blog to be edited in the future.

Fashionista -

September is finally here, Summer is coming to an end in less than 2 weeks away. Winter is around the corner and I'm starting to feel and see it in the trees as our Maple trees turn to a beautiful  Red and Orange colors. It's one step closer to a new year. Could you believe it already? Where has the time gone?
This blog will be a mixed up one. I'm going to start off with some fashion just because, I think this girl  has some killer taste.
Her name is Emma Maree and she's 19 years old. She comes from Australia and she's in University to become an art major. She posts youtube videos every so often and she does some fashion. hair and make up tutorials. You can check her channel out at EmmaxMaree. She has some pieces of clothing that I would even like to get my hands on! She cuts her own hair as well; her style is just to awesome to not post about.

On to the music scene. The red Jumpsuit Apparatus just not to long ago released a new Cd called ''Am I the Enemy''. you can pick it up the Deluxe Version on I-Tunes for 11.99$. They also have up the standard version.
there's a Fall Tour out with bands off  Fearless records called Fearless Friends Tour. the bands include on the tour

• Blessthefall - Headling
• The Word Alive
• Motionless in White
• Tonight Alive
• Chunk! No, Captain Chunk

It's heading across north American from  November and part of December. Tickets are on sale now. I would REALLY love to go and I'm hoping I can go, just because I want to support Tonight Alive for their first time in Montreal. They have a female vocalist and they come from Australia. I believe they have moved to California to get a better jump with their music. They have a new album ships out on October 13th 2011 called ''So What Are You Scared Of?'' You can pre-order the album here.

 

I don't remember how I came across them. All I know is I have been listening to them for a while and I fell in love with the music. I must have been searching youtube one day and it just came up back in January. It's pretty much the best way to find music or at a big music festival where you only know a couple of bands on the line up but just walk pass a stage and a band you don't know is playing and you like the sound. ends up being a new favorite. Happens to me many times.

Facebook. 

Blessthefall has a new album coming out on October 4th 2011 called "Awakening". I'm pretty stoked for this and to hear it all. Pre-ordering is up at I-Tunes for $9.99. Get their new song "40" on I-tunes today. You can check the song out here. There's also some information up on the site about it.

You know what I find cute and interesting? I didn't even know that the singer of Blessthefall - Beau Boken and very own Canadian girl Lights are engaged now! Congratulations to them both!

Up All Night - Video Premire

The other day, Blink-182 had announced that their new video for their single "Up All Night" will be premiering. I watched it a few time already and I have to say, the little boy at the beginning spray painting, I'm pretty positive that's Landon Barker - Travis' little 7 year old boy. There's a lot of pyrogen in the video and I find it's just a little all over the place. Maybe I'm missing the concept of it but, I feel that's the way it the video turned out.

I feel like it's all random scenes stuck together. +44 meets Angels and Air Waves. I am anxious on how the album turned out. This video is nothing like what they would normally would make. I guess they grew up a lot since they first started making music and got their fame from The Vans Warped Tour back in '96.

Unknown Artists

I have three bands to put out in the spot light; the first band is called The Air I Breathe. They come from New Jersey. They're actually currently touring with Breathe Carolina on the Scream It Like You Mean It Tour 2011.

I went to the tour on the 15th of August in Montreal and these guys performance was amazing. In Montreal we never really heard of them so they don't really have a fan base over here just yet.

A friend of mine and I met one of the guitarist after and he's a pretty rad guy. My friend ended up buy their CD from him and no, this time I didn't snatch her Cd from her since we where playing it in the car on the way back. They're on the heavy side with the screaming vox going on.

Their debut CD just came out on June 7th 2011 and if you're at the tour on remaining dates, buy a Cd for 10$ if not snatch it up on I-tunes for $9.90. I just noticed, when you click on the link it's $9.99 but if you go in your actual I-tunes store, it says  $9.90. For clarification, I believe, $9.90 is on the CANADIAN I-tunes since our dollar is lower I believe. Either way, give these guys a listen. They're pretty rad if you like heavier stuff. Personally, I like more singing then screamo but they're still amazing and the energy level is high when they perform.

Facebook.

Another band that's just starting out and their fan base is killer small.  A friend came across them on twitter. The band is called Roses in Rome and they come from the great land of Britain. Their music is really amazing and the best part is, they're not over process like most groups and bands now a days. I can't tell you if they have a full length or even an EP out yet because I haven't come across any information yet on it. As soon as I know more, I'll post all the information that I know about them. For now, this is all I know.

Facebook. 

Theres another band I recently came across, they sent me a request to follow me on Twitter and I looked them up. They're called First Things First and they're actually amazing. They are an unsigned band that come from Philadelphia. I could actually see this band getting big. They have an EP out called The Brighter Side and I highly recommend to check it out. I haven't taken the time yet to sit and listen them but, I will for sure, it's on my list to check out and to support. You can buy the EP on I-Tunes for 4.95$. I personally think it's worth it and can't go wrong with a price like that. They play a rock pop type of sound and, it's always fun to listen to bands before everyone else does. I know I'm in an era lately of trying to find as much unknown music as possible and my playlist just keeps on growing.
