5 Songs in A Minor
Don't think I've been revved up for concerts in a while. Not since Usher's 8701 tour last year anyway.
News out (maybe not new, but new for me :) that Alicia Keys and Maroon 5 are touring end of this year!
Maroon 5 Sunday Nov 21 @ Hordern Pavilion and Alicia Keys Monday Oct 25 @ Enmore Theatre. Enmore is such a good venue for her, up close n personal, more so than Hordern.

I've always admired piano playing artists, those people being the ones that maybe I could have been (in the art of playing piano anyway). I managed to play up to Grade 7 in the piano before I stopped due to the Higher School Certificate, and never bothered to continue on with it. I rarely play nowadays, though I look for sheet music online to songs I know and think sound good on piano, if it wasnt a piano tune to begin with. Stuff like Alicia Keys(!!), Five For Fighting, Jewel and the like, but I never manage to play it at the pace it really should be. I'm still amazed that I can still play the classical tunes I use to after a few minutes at the keyboard,
even though they kinda killed me at the examinations.

Now the countdown to Sept 9 and 10.... hmmm hopefully they'll have pre-sales as well.

Just read on Alicia Key's website that she is going to perform in China at the Great Wall, to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the restoration of the Great Wall. Now that is something I would like to see. That would be one of the most awesome places to hold a concert (no bias there of course :) and watch them perform. I'm surprised that the Chinese government even allowed it. Think I'm more and more inclined to get these tickets now (for Sydney).
Mike? :)
