HAPPY 36th BIRTHDAY, BILLIE JOE ARMSTRONG!!

YOU ARE MY IDOL AND HERO AND I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER!

+ I am truly sorry that you have the same birthday as Paris Hilton. You are soooo much better than her...but it's okay, bro. She is not the most respected musician, so what does it matter anyway?

LOVE, 

Rachel

New Music from Panic

Panic At The Disco (they took out the "!" in their name; it's so sad) has a new album coming out March 25th this year called "Pretty. Odd." You can hear their single "Nine In The Afternoon" on iTunes now!
This is going to be a good one. Can't wait!!

Here's to The Dresden Dolls!

I just felt like posting about The Dresden Dolls.
I saw a recent gig and I must say; not only are they amazing musicians, but amazing performers as well. And Brian Viglione is really really hot.
Yeah.
Post a comment or two!

Good Ol' Postin'

I really have nothing much to say right now, just wanted to leave another post. Yeah, I'm thinking about posting something about people and labeling. I KNOW what I want to say, but I can't really put it into words.
So, then I had an idea:
All you blog readers could comment on this blog(I just made it so that anyone could post, even the non-registered), and tell me what you think of labeling. Then I'll make one big happy post with all that you guys said(with names, without names, whatever you want).

Here's what I mean by labeling:
All those stupid people calling others "emo"...
Identifying someone as "Oh yeah, over there is that loser kid..."
Yes, "loser" is a label, not a description. We as humans freely "describe" people with these labels and it just ends up as name calling.

As you may or may not know, "Goth" is a label. So all you guys, even my friends, who call me "goth", you should really reconsider your ways if you care at all about this labeling problem.

However, "Punk" is not a label, it is a lifestyle. But I won't get too much into that now...

Comment away!!
