Title: Highlight of 2011 so far?
Post by: JayOctavarium on March 30, 2011, 03:22:33 AM: Twas thinking (dangerous, i know) about what the highlight of my year has been so far... And as i sat to try to figure it out, The Great Gig In The Sky came on (DT's cover...) and it hit me. The highlight of the year so far was seeing Which One's Pink?... especially when they played TGGITS... I think it was one of the guitarist's daughters singing... It made my night, and pretty much my year so far... (she was kinda hot too... and kept flirting with me before the show trying to get me to buy merch)

so what about Y'all?

Learning jazz guitar. Discovering more music I guess.

Meeting new classmates and they're not bad at all.

Lots of things to be mentioned.

Getting accepted onto a training course to work voluntarily in prisons counselling alcoholics and drug addicts

Going to Amsterdam (First time outta the country in six years, wooh!)

Seeing Symphony X live again

The Devin Townsend gig last saturday was also ridiculously awesome.

Blackfield gig next week should be great as well, and then I'm going to Belgium the week after that, should be fun.

Post by: sonatafanica on March 30, 2011, 06:38:52 AM: I guess for me it's simply figuring out all of my finances for going off to Uni and knowing I won't be stressed for money :)

Woooh! What are you studying/specialising in?

Getting my degree was my second best highlight of 2010 :)

Infact shouldn't there be a highlights of 2010 thread instead? 2011 is so young...

Post by: LeeHarveyKennedy on March 30, 2011, 03:14:54 PM: 2011 has been pretty boring so far. ROH and Lords of Acid were both good. Sure, let's say that I saw some good shows so far this year.

Post by: Ravenheart on March 30, 2011, 03:15:57 PM: 1. Making a lot of great new musical discoveries and broadening my tastes.
2. Having the longest talk with my best friend in a really long time. I miss her.
3. Hanging out with my friends every weekend or so.
4. Getting more acquainted with the members of this forum.

Yeah, I'm boring. Oh well :D

Post by: ZBomber on March 30, 2011, 05:06:23 PM: Easily playing my first "real" show with my band. Was an awesome experience and I'll never forget it, especially after the show when we were driving together listening to King Crimson, smokin and talking about how much fun we had at the gig... and I'm excited for the shows we have lined up in the next few weeks as well.
