One Life.

So Lauren’s been telling me that she’s had a suprise in the works for me for a few weeks now, and I’ve been on the edge of my seat about it.  Last night, we drive out, and she takes me to the House of Blues in Anaheim with 2 tickets to the Silverchair show!  I used to dig them quite a bit in the Frogstomp days (its the new Pearl Jam!), but didn’t really keep up with them after that album (about 10 years passed), and now I LOVE their new single “Walking in a Straight Line.”

So I didn’t know what to expect from the show, because last I saw of these guys, they were 16 year old, grungy long hair and their songs really sounded just like Pearl Jam. 

I was BLOWN AWAY.  The lead singer/guitarist is absolutely amazing, and the rest of the band was very tight.  I really gotta learn their names.  Anyway, the thing about the singer was that he had amazing stage presence, super cool rockstar moves, great on-stage banter and a 6-pack!  Dude was ripped.  And his voice is so strong… the dude just belts.  Anyway, if you get a chance to see them in concert, do it.  Pick up their new album Young Modern too while you’re at it.  Strong stuff.
