Mrs. Oshimbo: Concert Reviews Archives

I am the laziest blogger on Earth

Seriously, I have all these ideas in my head that I think would be great, but then real life takes over and I never get to any of them to the point where if I DID actually start, I'd be so far behind I won't do it. Such a blogging conundrum. But I really want to try to be a better, more regular, blogger.

Here are my ideas for regular segments on the blog:

Continue my regular entry updates for fanfics - rated, reading now, to-read, etc.
Restart my concert reviews (starting with The English Beat/Fishbone show I saw on Friday)
Start a new segment for reviewing the fanfics I have finished reading so people actually know WHY I rated them the way I did
Start a new segment for highlighting a song a week whether it is for the song itself, its lyrics, or because it spoke to me that week
Start a new segment reviewing new music I have bought
Restart my SYTYCD blogging when Season 7 starts in May.

Now I don't want to be one of those generic blog sites that all have the same new hipster information. Really, I didn't start this because I wanted to become famous (although I love seeing that someone has found me). I blog because I sometimes have thoughts in my head that I want to get out. I like to just be honest and write about things that speak to me or my passions.

So, let's see if I can drag myself away from reading Twilight fanfic long enough to make these aspirations come true. =)

2009 Shows in Review

By Mrs. Oshimbo on December 14, 2009 12:48 AM | No Comments

It's almost the end of the year and it was a great one for concerts. I used to be so good about writing a review for each and every show I attended, along with attaching a video playlist I recorded from the show. So what happened after Mar-2009? I have a litany of excuses, but in the end they are all excuses and I never went back to catch up after I lagged behind. I really will try to make a more concerted effort in 2010 (Oh look, my first New Year's Resolution).

So in review, I will at least make a list of all the bands or performances I saw this past year with a rating from 1-10. They'll be listed in alphabetical order, not by date. Shows were either in Atlanta, GA or Miami, FL.

Camera Comparison - Video Recordings TZ1 vs. TZ5

I will attempt to do an unscientific, not in the least very technical comparison of a TZ1 and TZ5.

Matisyahu

@ The Variety Playhouse

8-Nov-2008

Opening Band - Future Rock

I know, I know...if I went to the concert in November 2008, why am I only writing about it almost in February 2009? Well, one, it got close to the holidays and I got busy, two, I went to Europe for 2-weeks and got preoccupied trying to learn French, and finally three, I really didn't enjoy myself that much at the Matisyahu concert.
