I Am In Love With Karnivool

We went to a concert on Friday and I was thinking I only like 1 band out of the 4 playing but I will have to stay through 2 shitty bands to get to see them. The arena was crappy too, I hate Revolutions! Anyways, the show was supposed to start at 7pm door open at 6pm and it was raining. So we get there at 7:30 and no one was in the door yet. Finally we go in at 8:15pm. I had to return my umbrella to the car because they wouldn't let me take it in. I could use it as a weapon. We wait about another 30mins and the first band comes on start. OMG, I was in love.


The lead singer is something out of this world. I have never seen someone sing with such passion for his music. He was so fascinated by the moshing that he stopped singing for a second. When a band can appreciate the audience like that, ahhh I am in love. So they do about 5 or 6 songs and go off stage. They were so good. Ian Kenny's (lead singer I am in love with - Ian is the one in the sunglasses above - he is not really my type but he will be for the next few days or months) voice is so beautiful and he is a great performer.

Later that night, when the head liner (nonpoint) was playing, I went to the back so I could get a better view of the band. When I came back to my spot, I saw Ian standing there, next to my boyfriend. I couldn't believe it, he was right next to me, my love. So I tapped him on the shoulder and gave him a thumb up and he put his hands together in a praying position and then put out his hand for a shake. OMG!!! I shook his hands and he then pointed at the mosh pit and shook his head, I smiled and nodded yes. We were standing next to the speakers, so me talking wouldn't have mattered, plus I later found out he was wearing ear plugs.

He was so down to earth. He stood next to me for a while just watching the mosh pit (we had the best view)

The guy next to me was such a jerk. He kept smoking and then throwing his cigarette butts into the mosh pit. He also drank about 10 to 15 beers. He would drink until the cup is almost empty, then he would fling his cup with the rest of the beer into the mosh pit.

The mosh pit was a fucking zoo, full of crazy animals. I wouldn't have made it and I am happy I didn't go into the mosh because of the asshole next to me. I would have gotten my hair all stinky from beer or burnt from his cigarette butt.

I am so in love with Ian Kenny, to Love him is to see him play! I am getting the album and listening non stop until my crush dies down.

My PersonalDNA




You are a Director


# As a DIRECTOR, you combine an unusual openness and passion for beauty and style with confidence and a down-to-earth sensibility that allow you to realize your vision.

# You are practical and pay attention to the details that others tend to miss.

# By focusing on what is real and concrete, you achieve more than those who always have their heads in the clouds.

# When it comes to what really matters in your life, you are confident in your ability to succeed.

# Having beautiful things in your life gives you pleasure and satisfaction - you have a keen eye for style.

# Even when problems present themselves, deep down you know you will overcome these challenges.

# When routines get too familiar, you become bored and start looking for ways to spice things up.

# You are open to new types of experiences – you are not afraid to take a risk on something new.

# You have a highly developed sense of taste – you know what looks good on you, in your home, and in the world at large.

# You're not one to force your positions on a group, and you tend to be fair in evaluating different options.

# You are balanced in your approach to problem-solving, not letting your emotions hold you up.

If you want to be different:
# Occasionally let yourself dream a little more, even if it doesn't seem practical or efficient.
how you relate to others


You are Advocating



# Being social, empathic, and understanding makes you ADVOCATING.

# Some people find being around others exhausting—but not you! You are energized by spending time with friends, and you are good at meeting new people.

# One of the reasons you enjoy conversation as much as you do is that you often learn about yourself while talking things out with a friend; you realize things about your own beliefs while discussing them with others.

# You have insight into what others are thinking and feeling. This ability allows you to be happy for others, and to commiserate when something has gone wrong for them.

# You are highly compassionate, and being conscious of how things affect those close to you leaves you cautious about trusting others too hastily.

# Despite these reservations, you are open-minded when it comes to your worldview; you don't look to impose your ways on others.

# Your sensitivity towards others' plights contributes to an understanding—both intellectual and emotional—of many different perspectives.

# As someone who understands the complexities of the world around you, you are reluctant to pass judgments.


If you want to be different:
# While it's important to think about others, don't forget to take some time for yourself, and occassionally to put yourself first.

# Take some time to spend with a few close friends; although it's difficult to find people to trust, it's worth the effort.

# When you have great ideas, it can be hard to relinquish control, but it can also feel good to take the pressure off and enjoy someone else leading the way.
