Saturday night was the Bjork concert, and this one was even better than the last. Two main reasons for this, the first, of course, was that I was at this concert with Mike, and he was giddy with excitement! The second reason was the seats. We were in the fifth row, probably about 30-40 feet away from Bjork most of the time. We could see her singing and see her facial expressions. Absolutely amazing. A lot of the songs were fairly new, but I liked them all, and it gives me a good reason to listen more to the new CD! There were also some bittersweet moments for me during the concert, mostly thinking about the last time I saw her and the stupid situation that developed since then.

All in all, it was probably the second best concert I've ever seen. First would probably be when we saw Pink Martini with the San Francisco symphony. I'm a bit sad that they're going to be performing with them again when I am going to be out of town. I think Mike and I are planning a trip down to Santa Barbera in September in order to see them play, but of course it won't be the same as with the symphony when we were sitting behind them and very close! The new Pink Martini album is also very good, so it will be nice to see them perform some of those songs.

A plethora of new CDs have come my way lately. I don't know why everyone is coming out with albums recently. Bjork, Pink Martini, Travis, and Rufus Wainwright all released CD's within the past month. Add in the Mika CD I got and that's five CDs that I must listen to often! I'm not sure when I'll have the time!

It's nice getting back into seeing concerts after being away from them for so long. I am also enjoying seeing the smaller bands because you get great shows!
