Hola Familia!

The countdown to seeing y brother in April BEGINS! He’s coming to see one of his favorite bands, Lacuna Coil! I figured I would help him see his favorite band, since he got me tickets to Akira Yamaoka for my birthday. I’m excited for him since he has a meet and greet with the band and I think this is my brother’s first ever musical meet and greet! Anyway...weekend music reaction time!

🎀BAND-MAID Sunday:

The next song on the BAND-MAIKO album is “Ansan” which I have heard through the grapevine that this might be a cover of BAND-MAID’s “Anemone.” I wonder how the Maids feel about this! I have also heard that the aren’t friends? THE DRAMA! I’ve been enjoying the album so far. I wonder if this album was meant to be a homage to the Maids but the Maikos didn’t know how to tell them they thought they were cool? Who knows!

🔹Coheed and Cambria - “Gravemakers & Gunslingers”

I have done a couple of reactions to Coheed and Cambria already. The songs I got to experience so far were the longer epic sounding story-telling like tracks. Today we are checking out a song from the “No World for Tomorrow” album and from what I understand is that this a great standard rock banger and has some great musical things about it. There’s also some back story to the performance of the song that we will explore. I’m excited to check it out!

🔹Castle Rat - “Dagger Dragger”

I looked this band up after reading the description I was given on Discord and oh baby, I think I am in for a ride! From what I understand Castle Rat is a Medieval fantasy doom metal band that focuses on lore-heavy story telling. Look...I’m a nerd. I live for this kind of stuff so I am excited to check out what this band is all about!

🔹BAND-MAID - MEGAPORT Festival LIVE in Taiwan

I saw that this performance was on YouTube and it was sent in the Discord channel. I got curious of what the set list was and I saw that I have heard all of these songs so...why not watch the show? I haven’t given myself the joy of watching an entire concert, so today is a good day to enjoy their concert in Taiwan!

Coming back from Spring Break was ROUGH. Being tired is one thing, but since it’s been warm enough for flowers to bloom and pollen to rise my allergies have been going INSANE! I’ve been sneezing, coughing, and wheezing (asthma). Top it all off, I got sick the other night. I don’t know what I ate, but it didn’t agree with me so much that it didn’t stay in my stomach. I am merely surviving right now. Any other teachers out there? We gotta hang in there. I also read that some of you have kids, friends and family that are or were teachers, and I wanted to tell those of you that I hope that they are doing well!

Cheers to another week!

Con Amor,💜NittPicc💜
