When The Lights Go Out.

Want to know what one of my favorite things is??  The instant the house lights go out at a concert. The feelings I get as the lights go out are pure happiness. My heart starts to beat quicker, my tummy gets butterflies, and I am totally in the moment.

I love going to concerts and am happy to say I’ve seen pretty much everyone I’ve ever wanted to. These days my concert going is few and far between. So the shows I do get to are that much sweeter. I’m off to see Muse tomorrow night and I am very excited for it. I love the band, who are great live, but I’m also looking forward to those lights going out and my feeling of joy.

Everyone that knows me well knows how much I love Depeche Mode and Nine Inch Nails. Depeche Mode always has had great opening music before the first song is played, but nothing could have been better than hearing Pimpf being played before the show. I never got to see them on the Music For The Masses tour, so I can only imagine what that felt like. To hear Pimpf pounding through the speakers, knowing the show was starting. It must have been awesome!

I am fortunate enough to have experienced Pinion as the opening song for NIN quite a few times and it’s always such a rush. I was watching Another Version of the Truth last night, and even though they played Pinion in the middle of the show, I still got a little bit of that rush.

So there you have it. A little Nubby knowledge for the day. Some people will jump out of airplanes, some drive 200 mph. I just want to go to concerts.
