A Fire In The Attic, Proof of the Prize


Okay, it's been too long since I've posted here. I apologize for that. So what has happened lately? Well, if that image above hasn't tipped you off I went to my first rock concert in years. I isn't very often that major bands come to Hawaii to perform. Let alone Maui, which would probably be one of the smaller venues on any bands tour. Though, I've actually been lucky that my favorite bands have performed here. Foo Fighters performed here in 2000, No Doubt performed here in 1998 and again in 2000. On the long Easter weekend, I was lucky enough to see Incubus.

I've been a fan of the band since 1999, when their second album "Make Yourself" was released and dominated the radio. So it was a little surreal to be driving to the show. I thought, "This is a band I've listened to for nearly 10 years...and now I finally get to see them perform." I don't want to go into a long winded review of the concert, but I think it was awesome. There really is no other feeling like being in a crowd singing every word of every song. Here's their set list by album. (I'm not hardcore enough to remember the order)

Light Grenades
Quicksand
A Kiss to Send Us Off
Ann Molly

One Crow Left of the Murder
Megalomaniac
Talk Shows on Mute
Beware! Criminal
Sick, Sad Little World
Pistola

Morning View
Nice to Know You
Wish You Were Here
Blood on the Ground
Aqueus Transmission

Make Yourself
The Warmth
Stellar
Drive

S.C.I.E.N.C.E.
Redefine
Vitamin (Not 100% sure about that one)





One last note, please check out the Silversun Pickups. They were the opening act and freakin' ROCK! I've been listening to them for a while because I listen to WOXY.com. I'm really glad I got to see them perform before they really hit the big time. They seemed to be really impressed at the enthusiasm for our rock hungry crowd.

I'll post again soon with reviews for God of War: Chains of Olympus & Call of Duty 4.
