Like two ships that pass in the night
You and I, a whore and a bashful sailor
Welcome to a sunrise of a dirty mind
All you love is a lie
You one-night butterfly
Hurt me, be the one
Whoever brings the night
The Dark, created to hide the innocent white,
the lust of night Eyes so bright,
seductive lies Crimson masquerade where I merely played my part
Poison dart of desire"
- Whoever Brings the Night by Nightwish
Actually, this was one night, I wish wouldn't end.
So last night I went to X-FEST 2K9. It was the time I've been to it,
and I thought it was awesome! I got up early kinda,
and got there around 10 or 10:15 and the gates opened at 11,
with the first band coming on at 12:05.
So we got in around 11:10, and Halestorm(my favorite band next to Nightwish)
was at the autograph booth and I had to get there!
So my step-dad left me and my friend Cassy at the booth,
with a long line kinda and we waited.
But I knew it would end at 11:25 for Sick Puppies to take a turn for autographs.
Well we moved a bit but then Halestorm left!
I was kinda aggravated, but figured I like Sick Puppies so I'll stay in line for them.
The I heard someone yell my name.
Up further in line was a kid from my school. He asked if I had been in line for Halestorm,
and I told him yes. He goes, "Well, they're standing right there still signing some stuff."
I was like, "REALLY??? Okay let's go!"
Since Cassy and I didn't want to travel back through the line, I jumped the fence.
Some guy asked me if I needed help,
but before I could say anything I had already swung one leg over
and a woman said, "No, I think she may have got it now."
Cassy gave me her stuff, jumped the fence,
and we walked over to Lzzy Hale, the singer of Halestorm,
who has an amazing voice and something I just now noticed- awesome style!
I asked her if she could sign my ticket and she nicely took it and signed it,
and I told her how I loved her hair.
"Well, I haven't washed it in awhile, so thanks!" I thought that was funny.
Then I asked her if she wouldn't mind taking a picture with me,
and she said sure and grabbed my shoulder
and turned us both to the camera(phone) Cassy had.
I got a picture with her and as she signed Cassy's ticket,
she said she liked my shoes and Cassy's jeans.
Which her jeans were awesome- hot pink and teal zebra stripped.
Then a little later the concerts started!
Halestorm-
I must I thought all the bands did really really good!
Line-up:
Halestorm
Sick Puppies
CAVO
RED
HURT
Cage the Elephant
Hollywood
Our Lady Peace
Mudvayne
Alice in Chains
Any more pictures you want to see, they're on my profiles.
Most of it is Halestorm, considering that's the band I really went there for.
One more thing, not X-Fest related,
but Nightwish related- Anette Olzon, will be making a solo album!!!
Not as a career- that's why she has Nightwish- but as a side project.
Yes, I agree that she should be able to do that!
Every other member in the band has another band or project they do besides Nightwish,
just because she's the singer does not mean she can't.
But I am not only now excited for whenever the next Nightwish album gets out,
but now also I can't wait for Anette's album! So good luck to her with that!
