Love You Long Time


The long awaited next post is here!!!!!  The band I have chosen is called Love You Long Time.  This is a local Utah band who has quite a large fan base in the Utah area.  I had been hearing things about this band for the past year and a half but never took the chance to go and seem them play or to check out their music.  A week ago on Labor Day I was helping with the security for a large charity event at which Love You Long Time was scheduled to play.  Most of the people who had come to the event came to see Love You Long Time play even though they were not the headlining band.  They were, to say the least, amazing.  From the moment they started playing till their last song they brought an energy to the crowd of people that wasn't felt during any of the other seven bands that played.  The lead singer was dressed in 80s style clothes with vintage nike high tops and a kitty cat t-shirt.  As soon as I got home that night i purchased on of their EPs on Itunes.  Check them out I'm positive u will love them, and if u ever get a chance to see them live don't pass it up.  I will be loving Love You Long Time for a long time.

The Weepies


I'm sorry to the many few or none that have looked at my blog in the past week and seen no new posts.  I have been "busy".  So my post today is for a band called The Weepies.  I actually personally discovered the weepies a long time ago but today as i sat listening to them and reading about them I felt that they deserved to be my post.  The Weepies have a cool story the band is mainly Deb Talan and Steven Tannen if you check out both of their names you will see that they both have their own music careers under those names.  Steven and Deb met in 2001 at one of Steve's shows.  They became friends and started playing together.  They found that their music fit perfectly together just as their lives did and they got married.  They have since released three cds under the band name The Weepies.  In 2007 The Weepies added a new band member when Deb gave birth to a baby boy.  The Weepies music is soothing and melodic-al if you find your self stressed pop in any one of The Weepies releases and you will find yourself feeling much more relaxed.  The reason why this band made it onto my blog is not only because of their music but also because if I were to ever have a music career this is the way I would want to go.  Check them please.....
