Dirty Lashes

Since I have promised myself to not write too much about my day-to-day boring life in this blog, I'll fill these empty days with some great bands. The unknown ones that I'd love for you guys to discover!
Today I want to introduce you to Dirty Lashes! A swedish glam/sleaze band with catchy melodies and a powerful lead singer (just listen to that high note he takes at 3:00 in the video!!)
My favourite song is easily "Miss Beautyqueen". Dirty Lashes is unsigned so far but if they continue to release demos like these, they wont be unsigned for much longer.
You can find almost all the bands I recommend on Facebook!

Born to die free

I was there. At the fence. Right in front of Martin Sweet. And the night after in Stockholm I got to meet Peter London. I can't believe it. It's something about this band, can't put my finger on what it is. All I know is that I have the greatest amount of respect and love for them. Their inspiration will become a tattoo on me some day when I have the money. A lot of people get tattoos that they later regret. But I know I wont regret this one, because it is going to be about more then just the band. It's going to be about how they have changed my life.

LIPSTIXX N BULLETZ

I'm constantly looking for new rock bands to become a fan of! I'm especially weak for the glam/sleaze genre. There are so many great underground bands out there that most people unfortunately have never heard of. Thanks to my wonderful friends I keep getting recommendations to what I should listen to. The latest band I discovered was Lipstixx N Bulletz. It was just an hour ago but I'm already a fan.
Since they are a fairly new band I don't know much about their past, but I do know some great songs to recommend. So check em out!!

I noticed that you guys couldn't comment on my blog, but I've fixed it now :)

Big Rock Show Acoustic Night at Noels

"Drinks up, because this is for fucking valborg! I know you crazy people likes to light things on fire." - Ryan Roxie

Time to write about yet another one of my adventures! :)
I arrived in Stockholm on Saturday night and took a taxi to the hostel. Poor taxi driver hadn't been working there for more than a week so he asked ME how he should drive! Haha, uhhm? Well we finally got there so I could check-in.
I ended up staying in a room with a bunch of Americans that were travelling around the world. I spoke to one of them, a really nice guy named Jordan, and he told me they'd come from France and that they'd been in Sweden for three days. It was so funny hearing how they look at us Swedes. Apparantly we have a very unique "style" and everyone dresses the same. We don't copy other countries very much, we just create our own styles instead. I've never thought of Sweden that way, but maybe it's true?

I didn't have to leave immediately so I sat on my bed for a while and waited. I realised that travelling by yourself isn't as bad as a lot of people seem to think it is. You just need common sense. Don't trust anyone, but don't act like everyone are maniacs either. If you can't find your way then just ask someone on the street or the staff at the hostel. Make sure you have extra cash in case something happens and always think 'safety first' in whatever you do.

When I arrived at Noels I met Ryan, Anna and her parents. Great people. In fact, the whole place was packed with great people during the night! Everyone was in an awesome mood... dancing, joking and singing. We saw several artists and bands who all took turns performing. No one was forced up on the stage and still there was always something going on up there. Roxie 77 ended up playing three times or something, haha! Not that I'm complaining ;)

Me and Anna even got a song dedicated to us for our work with The Big Rock Show. We are more then happy to help because we're having a blast promoting it! But it feels good that it's appreciated :)

Before we went home we talked to the guys for a while (and Anton who had turned into Ozzy Osbourne thanks to a couple of beers, lol). I can't wait to see them again. I'll probably go back to Stockholm in the beginning of June. It's just a couple of episodes left of the web show and of course we've got to finnish it off with a big party!!

My parents
My mom and dad have lived together for over 20 years. They are good parents who do their best to not worry about things that other parents may be concerned about. They know that they can trust me and my sister. But still, even they can be too overwhelmed by their emotions and act as if me and my sister are still kids. I'm lucky to have parents who doesn't kick me out on the street just because I'm over 18. They know how difficult it is to pay back money to the state, so they rather let me live at home a couple of more years instead of forcing me to take a loan. So I can always count on them.
Although I wont say that my relationship with my parents is perfect. I'm a lot closer to my dad than to my mum.
But that's something I wont discuss in my blog.

Money is so easily spent

This tank top looked great on the website but nah... don't think it'll fit. Plus I gotta save my money for the summer. But I'll try it on anyway. Just so that I get to see that it don't fit. Then I can send it back. So here we go... oh, wow... look at that. It actually looks kinda good. I mean, it looks awesome. I don't wanna wear anything else in my life again. Damn, now I have to buy it.
