Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 8/8-8/14

This weekend I did something I rarely do and that’s power through a TV show.  The show in question is The Sandman. I have many thoughts and feelings that need digesting. As a fan of the comic books, I’m particularly curious how people who haven’t read the series feel about the show. I am patiently waiting for everyone to get through it to find out.

Amanda’s SD Concert Calendar 7/25-7/31

Comic Con is officially over. I made it through and while it was a more low key year than other times, I’m glad for it because my body could not have handled more. Highlights were seeing William Shatner, Keanu Reeves, and walking into pretty much anything I wanted.

Now that Comic Con is over, I can get back to my drum lessons, which I’m super excited about! I’ve been working on another You Me At Six song called “Little Death.” That one accented sequence with the doubles is going to be the death of me but I will get it! Maybe I should go practice on my pad…
