Last week I was able to see Sir Sly, Bad Suns, and The 1975 perform at the House of Blues in Orlando. Truly one of the best shows I have ever been to. We got to the venue extremely early, and I'm talking 11 in the morning early, doors weren't until 6:30 in the evening.

When 6:30 came around we were all let inside of the venue ( or should I say CRAMMED inside ) and Andria and I had a great view aside from two tall people in front of us. Sir Sly opened the show and I have never been more impressed with an opening band!! Their stage presence was so phenomenal and I really enjoyed their set. Their single Ghost was featured on Teen Wolf, but my favorite, Out of my mind, isn't even available to listen to online. You can watch them both here on Youtube. ( Not my video! )

I don't know why these girls were incredibly rude but after Sir Sly was done playing, but I have never been pushed around more at a general admission show. Pushing to the point where everyone was completely pressed up against each other, completely aggravated, and not enjoying the next band. Be nice when you go to shows, don't push, don't say rude things, and don't lie when you're asked to stop. Bad Suns was pretty good as well, I wish I was able to enjoy more of the set but what can you do. Their single Cardiac Arrest is definitely my favorite. Watch the video here.

I don't even know where to begin when talking about The 1975. If you have not seen them live you definitely should. I honestly feel like its such a privilege to watch them and hear them in the flesh. I can't even listen to their CD anymore without comparing the songs to the live versions. Their energy is just completely off the charts and I know I keep repeating myself but they just sound so DAMN good. They played quite a bit off of their CD, and they also played a lot of their earlier songs which actually surprised me. It's been a week and I'm still really upset that the shows over. It's such an experience to see them and I cannot wait until they come back to Florida.

May Wishes

I figured it's been a while since I made a wish list post. Or any posts at all! So sorry about this camera mess, I'll actually look into this week because I really do miss posting! :( 

Not much on this wish list because I'm still working on purchasing items from past wish lists, but other things keep getting in the way ( i.e concerts, school books, no time ) I don't even remember the last article of clothing I purchased. My shopping addiction needs to be fueled SOON. 

The main thing that has caught my eye recently is Crosley's new suitcase record player in this peachy color! I was actually given a record player for my birthday but it's stopped working ( it was purchased at Target, soooo…. yeah )

Other items in this list include a pair of jellies, and this denim romper from Zara. Keeping it really simple and light this summer, however I am hesitant about purchasing jellies because it gets quite hot here in Florida and foot sweat and plastic are a complete no. I've also been eyeing Mary Jane pumps from AA, but they're a bit on the pricy side.

What are you wishing for this month?
