never knew hope could be so beautiful

Woke up this morning to the sound of sirens. Continuous sirens, for about an hour or so, to be un-exact. All manner of public service vehicle's wailing pulled me from a nights slumber, and I'm almost afraid to see what kind of disaster might have warranted this. Let's hope it's just a cat stuck in a tree!

I saw Protest the Hero perform on the weekend. Awesome, for lack of a better word. The only thing unfortunate about the show was the shortness of their set, and the lack of fore site on the promoter's part, having Protest in a supporting role for The Bled. No offense to The Bled, who were good, and the other bands Since By Man, As cities Burn and Cancer Bats. They all did plenty of the rocking and grinding, but seriously, IMO Protest the Hero stole the show. IT was my first time seeing the band who, again IMO, put out one of the best CDs of last year, a CD I did not regret spending my half-assed earned money on! I just can't wait to see them headline a show!

And it's been a while since I've been to a hardcore/post hardcore show, or whatver the nom-du-jour/label for that scene is. And it was awesome, it really brought me back a few years.

Here's a doodle of Damien, I did during a sketching marathon I had on the weekend.
