Is There Still Magic In The Midnight Sun?

So I did not win the contest...which was lame...but congrats to Jonathan, and thank you for the great footage!

Speaking of, one of the places Jonathan went to see The Killers was Coachella. Mmm how I would have loved me some of that musical greatness. But, I have Youtube...right? Sure. Here is by far the best performance during the whole weekend:



Apparently A Dustland Fairytale is supposed to be the next single in the U.S...though CA has been playing This Is Your Life on the radio. Either way they can't loose. Both songs are strong lyrically and musically (well, hello!) so people will be turned on fo sho.

The Killers also made an appearance on Jay Leno tonight. For being a lame show (very...womanly...), The Killers made it great. I can't tell you how much they have omproved and how much more confident they sounds compared to late last year. They truly rock, and I really don't think I can stress this enough, people.
----------------------

Nuff of TK, already, okay okay...

Aside from THEM, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Cure, Paul McCartney, Franz Ferdinand and My Bloody Valentine all rocked it up in CA this weekend. This is a great time for music, isn't it? I think in times like these, music can really pull people together. You can forget about life for a while with other peoples lyrics and instruments. No matter where you are; in a dark arena or outdoors watching the sunset, music will get to you, and in such an amazing way. I don't think there is much that can touch the feeling and emotions that run through the way that a good song does.

....ahh....love it.

Okay, short but sweet. AND a hint of why music moves me...I mean really, I can't stand still here.

New Vid, and Great Experience with SPIN Earth!

So here is the final cut. I made slight changes, and I think it turned out fairly decent. But I guess we'll see what others think tomorrow:


You can see everyone's videos here: http://www.spinearth.tv/feature/Killerscontest


I must say this whole experience has been great! I've never made a video before, so staying up night after night, and working on it with my sister was a blast! I've also got to see a whole batch of people who love the same band that I love, and there's nothing like it. The people (for the most part) have been really great and supportive of eachother, which is something you don't see all the time. There are no fans like Killers fans, FO SHO! So thanks, everyone! You guys have been great, and regardless of who wins, we are going to all have a great weekend seeing what the band is up to for 3 days!
Ahhhh Las Vegas....CA.....can.not.wait.

Good luck, you guys! And thanks for the support...you guys have been great. We know whats up!
Now we ANXIOUSLY wait it out...for who knows how long. At least we will DEFINITELY know by tomorrow...sometime.

MOVING ON:
Brandon Flowers to pair up with Kanye: possibly on "Sweet Talk".
Phil Spector: Guilty
Mars Volta to be out June 23



Oh, and download "San Jacinto" by Peter Gabriel. That man is a genious, and anyone who thinks differently is clueless.


Toodles!

El Video

Here it be.
I have a backup plan if needed, but it seems to be doing well so far! Let me know,people!

I can't stress enough how amazing this would be. This band has been a huge part of my life, and as cliche as the sounds, it's the truth. No other band get's me going like The Killers. I thought all hope for rock was lost when I was in high school until I heard "Somebody Told Me" for the first time. Their albums are like soundtracks to my growing up, and I'll never forget that.
That, and they fucking ROCK live! MY GOD, they put on a show.

Following them and sharing my experience with the rest of the world .... perfect. Dear LORD, I would LOVE this chance!

Okay, nuff o' that. I can save my Killers dedication another for another day.

That's all for now. Homework, work, class, and this vide have been consuming my every second.

Thanks, loves.

Just a few things on the musical hempisphere of Chelsie's brain (which happens to consist of much Killers news...":

I am sick and tired of hearing about The Killers being sick and tired...of eachother. There have been several reports on this, all saying almost the same exact shit about the band not getting along, and it's ridiculous. One of the things mentioned is how they drive seperatly to and from gigs. They have been QUOTED, saying that sometimes some of them go back to their hotel (ahem, the married one's) and the others go out ("The Welcome to The Jungle bus"). They don't hate eachother, I am SURE.
I can definitly see why they might say they are "tired". The guys haven't had much of a break since they started touring...ever...so a break is deserved. They aren't breaking up, and as long as they keep putting their godsend songs out for us to get high off of, let um break as long as they need!

ahem...

Moving on.

Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Depeche Mode all coming out with new albums soon. Thank you.

Green Day to come out with a musical based on American Idiot.
Please, dear lord, somebody help us all. There aren't enough words to describe the lamenes and annoyance I hace for this...band...blaaahhhh

And, finally....
I am making plans to make THE most EPIC 2 min. video on why I am the biggest Killers fan ever. If I win, I "shadow" them for 3 gigs (including their homecoming in Las Vegas, and Coachella!), and write about my amazingly amazing time with them for spinearth readers. Ahhhh it's going to be THE best. Any suggestions?? I have a few ideas in mind, but I only have a week!


Less than a month for Franz Ferdinand
1 month for The Killers
Possibly 20 days for the 3 best days of my life.


END.
