The weirdest dream....


I had the weirdest dream a few days ago.... And I know that this site is beginning to look like an Ian Watkins fansite...But it isn't:P Although he is in my head a lot!Cause I already start to dream about him...That isn't healthy, isn't it? But it was a very weird, funny dream, so don't stop reading! I'll tell you my interesting adventures with Ian;)

One day I won a meet and greet with Ian Watkins (Lostprophets), it was on the same day as the concert they would be given that night. It was not on the same spot, somewhere in a place on the other side of town. I went there with my friend Lisa and it was nice. Not extremely special, but nice. Ian seemed to be a very normal person, which I didn't expect...Cause in my mind he is some kind of God or something....After the meet and greet we went to the concerthall. This hall was huge!! And it was decorated on a strange way...My mother and I went immidiately to the front, surprised that we were the first. Lisa sat down on a fat boy (a very big pillow) and decided to watch the concert from there. At that moment all kind of small children came into the hall and none of them came to the front. They sat down at chairs in the back...Finally the Lostprophets came up!!!(and we were still the only ones in the front) After a few song they stopped, cause there had been no more electricity. My mother and I were the only ones who cared about that...After the show I went to Ian Watkins and told him that I forgot my shoes at the meet and greet, cause I was wearing heals over there and that wouldn't be smart to wear at the concert...Ian decided to give my friend and I a ride to pick up the shoes. We walked to the car and suddenly I realised that I was walking hand in hand with Ian Watkins!!! Although it felt like I was walking with my dad or something:P While walking I asked Ian: Why didn't you crowdsurf? And he told me:That is part of the rehad I am taking to get off the alcohol... So I said: But i thought you were straight edge???! I am straight edge because you are... And then he almost cried! He was sooo dissapointed in himself! After that we went into his car and I wanted to sit in the front next to him, but someway I did not fit in that chair, cause it was made on Ivy's (his supermodel ex)size. So I sat on the backsead next to Lisa. There had been a huge trafficrow...So it took hours to reach the place and then....

I woke up...

I have no idea if this dream has a meaning or something, if you know the meaning please tell me...Well maybe I am just retarded...

Lostprophets


My favourite song from the Lostprophets!Everyday combat! DMZ, it means de-militaired-zone, in case you didn't know that! So....the lyric of the month, here it is:


Bar Fight, week night
You don't look right, poor mite, no bite
Wake up, first light
This is what we live and what we see...
Dance club, strip light
Get drunk, no sight, watch it ignite
Live it up tonight
Nobody really cares, but it's not for me...

So raise your glass my son
We're telling everyone

Living in everyday combat
Day to day commuter riot
Shot down, Dancing in the DMZ
(And we)
Walk on, streets on fire
Caged in with razor wire
Shot down, living in the DMZ
Living in the DMZ

Times up, let's go, all that we know
Release tension, you're my hero
After dark, terror in the town high street
And I know you can't stop full throttle
Get involved mate, broken bottle
(Invasion) Panic on the cold concrete

So raise your glass my son
We're telling everyone...

Living in everyday combat
Day to day, commuter riot
Shot down, shot down, dancing in the DMZ
(And we)
Walk on, streets on fire
Caged in with razor wire
Shot down, living in the DMZ
Living in the DMZ
Living in the DMZ
Living in the DMZ

Velvet revolver the last fight.....ever:(

I am totally shocked!!!! When I googled to get some information for this review about Velvet revolver in Amsterdam, I came to find that they are breaking up!!! I've just seen their last concert ever:( It is really a shame, cause I hoped to see this great band more often, but obviously that is not going to happen:( Scott Weiland, singer of the band announced at the gig in Glasgow that they were watching a very special show....A show of the last tour of Velvet Revolver. The band had been shocked that moment, but things weren't going very well between the guys. This had been also very obvious on stage. They were a great awesome spectaculair band, one like I've never seen before....but something was missing, and now I know what! They weren't enjoying it!! They didn't smile or looked happy and now I understand why! You should read what these guys have been saying about their bandmates, it's right here in this article: http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1583956/20080324/velvet_revolver.jhtml?rsspartner=rssColdFusion Plus, Scott and (I guess some of (or all) of the other bandmates) have serious drugs problems! Scott has just been out of rehad just before this tour! So I guess I should be happy that they didn't cancelled this tour... I think that the biggest problem in their band is....They all have a huge huge HUGE ego!!! And that just doesn't work...If you see them perform, you get the point... Slash is an amazing guitarist, really the best guitarist of the world!!! But the problem is that he knows that makes him stand more in the middle than the Scott does...And that makes him play at least one or two guitarsolos in one song....And that makes him always want to end the song!!....And (I have to say I was in for that) that makes him play a (at least) five minute guitarsolo, which was awesome (btw).....He totally blew the other bandmates away and that is very ego! The question though is....Is it okay what Slash is doing? I mean he is the best guitar player there is, so is he allowed to be have a huge ego?! Tell me what you think! But of course it is not only Slash' fault...Because they are all bandmates from huge former bands:Guns n' Roses, Stone Temple Pilots, they are frustrated that they are not as succesfull as they used to be...I mean they didn't even sold out the show in Amsterdam...Their last ever show! And it is not even a very big hall!!! A lot of people might think that these guys are old farts now, but that is totally not true! They play real rock and roll, I even think that they are better than Guns n' Roses, they are more underground:)They played almost all their best songs, exept for Spectacles:( They even played some of the Guns n' Roses songs like 'Have al little patience'. Slash played on a lot of different guitars, one of them of course the Gibson Les Paul! The start had been weird..After waiting an hour after a strange band called Sons of Aboil (or something like that) they finally arrove on a hip hop song:P Well they set it straight after that point...They are a selection of the best bandplayers of the world, so sure they make technical awesome music!The sound in the beginning wasn't very good, but that wasn't their fault. The crowd had been very boring and old...(I'm sorry..) The band seems not to attract the youth a lot...But I think that has not to do with their music, their music is ageless, original and energetic...I think it has to do with their attitude, Velvet Revolver is the kind of band, you expect trouble of! They have huge ego's, do not smile a lot, and seem to have not a lot of interest in what they are doing...The youth seems to chose performances above music these days and I think bands just have to go with that! We like to see hot young Ian Watkinskindofmen with nice clothes, movements, smiles and especially pleasure on stage. But I am really going to miss Velvet revolver and I will play their record again and again and again and again and..... Well...It did surprised me that yesterday they didn't say anything about that this would be their last show, should we still have a little hope? I hope so...

This is a part of the awesome solo Slash played, I've never heard such a great guitarsolo in my life before....
