Have you ever loved a song or band so much that it hurt? I have. I fall in love with bands and songs on a monthly/weekly/daily basis. I guess I could blame my mom. It must have been all those years surrounded by musicians and music growing up that made me love it so much. After the last week packed full with amazing musical talent and the chance to meet some of my favorite musicians, I found myself wondering if they appreciate their fans as much as we appreciate them. I can honestly say after seeing, meeting and talking with Coheed and Cambria and Dear and the Headlights I love them more and more. After all the Coheed experiences I have had it seems impossible to love them more but I do! The craziest thing is that I am on some sort of band overload right now and it is actually making me depressed. Strange, but is making my heart hurt. I wanna do it all over again but I can't, and I want to see them all again, like we are best friends, but I know I wont for awhile. I don't know, its just making me sad for some reason.

don't blame your mom - thank her for your passion.

You are right. I guess blame was the wrong word to use because it sounds negative, however, I did not mean it in a negative way. I probably should rewrite it so that it sounds a little better. Passion is a better word.
Thanks for having my back big sista!!! ;) I agree, thank is a better word...i know what you mean Amy....music is a wonderful thing in our lives and I am so glad you are able to appreciate so that it is a passion of yours. Everyone should have a passion in life. Love you lots. Thanks for the thankful weekend!! You are the BEST!!!
