Fort Collins Music Experience
Saturday, April 14, 2012 § 0
The Fort Collins Music Experience is a beautiful thing.
I almost wasn't going to go. My roommate invited me along and I wasn't really sure because the tickets were $20, and also I'd had a stressful week and vegging out in my dorm seemed like a really excellent alternative.
And then I realized that I ALWAYS veg out in my dorm and that I needed to get out and do something with my life.
So I went!
You, Me, and Apollo- such a great band!
The Heyday!
PURE SEX
And You, Me, and Apollo again. Such a great time.
Basically what happens is that Old Town Fort Collins becomes this music hub for two days, and 300+ bands come and play at different venues all over the city. Me, the roomie, and some of her friends basically just hopped from place to place and caught about 4 or 5 bands last night. It was so great.
Stay tuned- the festival continues for today and we're going to see what kind of bands we can discover tonight.
Have a lovely evening,
Madi
I just downloaded this album and it is INCREDIBLE.

Ah, how this brings back memories of my misunderstood middle school years. The Bravery!!! Pandora reminded me today just how much I love them.
And can you believe this music video? The part with all the smashing lightbulbs is my fave :)
Listening to this song.

'I broke down in horror at you standing there
The glow from the moon
Shone through cracks in your hair.
I shouted with passion,
"I love you so much"
But feeling my skin, it was cold to the touch.
You whispered "where are you?"
I questioned your doubt
But soon realized, you were talking to God now'
-White Lies, Unfinished Business
I love songs with stories behind them. White Lies's album is RIFE with story-songs. Love them.
Day 2- Blog Name Meaning.
Sunday, March 20, 2011 § 0
Welcome to Day 2 of 30 Days of Blogging! Today's topic? The meaning behind the blog name.
Technically, I have two: Cooper Calamity and the one on my domain, 'shesacalamity' (She's a calamity).
Cooper Calamity stems from last year, when my sister, Corey (last year's prom date and one of my good friends) and I were listening to The Like (below) and decided to make up a fictional 1960s pop-rock band, changing all of our names into something radical and fun. Molly became Birdie Jones, Corey was Flash Ferdinand, and I, Cooper Calamity. I started using it for everything- usernames, code names, and, more recently, a blog title.
She's A Calamity is simply used because my old blog, domain name coopercalamity.blogspot.com, was sadly deleted after my google account was spamming everyone in my address book. Blogger wouldn't let me use it a second time et voila, shesacalamity.blogspot.com was born.
Terribly stimulating, I know. But don't turn that dial- day 3 is coming in fast and strong and that's when I'll let you see a photo of me...as a child.
Happy Sunday,
Cooper
