sigur ros...september!

it has been about 3 years since i have seen sigur ros live. i went to two of the shows in texas that they did. they were both amazing! for those of you who don't know who they are, they are a band from iceland that creates amazing soundscapes with their music. they sing in icelandic or hopelandic, and it doesn't even matter, because they create emotions through their music. you FEEL what they are trying to say..it doesn't matter if you know what they are actually saying.

here are a couple videos from their last album:

Sigur Ros - Glósóli:



Hoppípolla:



and one from their recent dvd 'heima':

Starálfur:



their latest album came out yesterday and it's phenomenal as usual..and with recent performaces at bonnaroo and other festivals, i am really excited to be able to see them again!

today i bought my tickets to see sigur ros at saltair in SLC, utah in september. i hope that some of you will join me! anyway, i am sure you will hear a lot more about them on my blog as it gets closer.

first things.

hello all. i will be blogging about random things here for family, friends, and people interested in what's going on in my world. check back for updates!
