Black Veil Brides

So lately the band that's been trending in the "World of Naj" would be Black Veil Brides, consisting of: Andy Biersack (vocalist), Jake Pitts (lead guitarist), Christian Coma or CC (drummer), Jinxx (rhythm guitarist, violinist), and Ashley Purdy (bassist).

If you don't know them, which I think most of their fans would, they have three albums, the fourth coming out on October 28th! "We Stitch These Wounds", "Set The World on Fire", "Wretched and Divine: The Story of the Wild Ones" and coming soon, "Black Veil Brides IV".

Anyways, recently I went to one of their concerts for the Black Mass tour in Columbus, Ohio! Opening for them was Set it Off, Drama Club, and Falling in Reverse (who I caught a drumstick from >_<). Black Veil Brides played (from what I can remember):
- Heart of Fire
- Faithless
- Fallen Angels
- Wretched and Divine
- Bulletproof
- Drum Solo by CC
- Rebel Love Song
- Knives and Pens
- Rebel Yell (Billy Idol)
- In the End (as the encore)

Despite some bands or performers not performing well live, Black Veil Brides did not disappoint. Andy's screaming and singing was amazing, and the guitar, violin and drum solos were spectacular to watch. Jinxx even played his electric violin on stage which is not something you often see at a rock concert.

Anyways, while I was there jamming out with my friend, my mother managed to take some really good pictures of the band. Sadly my mom wasn't able to get any pictures of CC seeing as he was way in the back. Hopefully you'll like these pictures just as much as I do!

Intro

Hi to all the random people that might just read this. I've tried writing blogs before, but they never turned out good. Perhaps I just never had anything I really was truly passionate about and then when I was passionate about it no one else was. Anyways, I think I've finally found something I may be able to keep organized that will also interest a large group a people my age!

Everyone likes music, it may not be the same kind of music, but we all like it. You may like classical, heavy metal, pop, rap, country, etc. But we all have something we like. I've been on the internet a long time, and I have to say I've found a lot of people that like the same bands I do, or have introduced me to new music that I've found myself liking.

My Plans for this Blog:
- Talk about the bands I like
- Perhaps influence or open the minds of others
- Post pictures of concerts I go to
- Meet people that like the same things I do
- Post lyrics to songs along with video links to the songs on YouTube
- Post news I've heard about different bands
- Talk about up and coming concerts

Genres I like:
- Rock
- Alternative
- Metal (some, not all)
- Pop (some is good)
- Country (open to it anyways)
- Rap (only the respectable kind)
- Punk

Genres I dislike:
- R&B (just never got into it)
- Rap (the un-respectable kind)
- Opera (sorry, but no)

Bands I like:
NOT LISTING THESE! Bwahaha! Really I'm just going to save them so I actually have something to post about. Maybe I'll have weeks where it's dedicated to a band and each day I do something about a member. However, I'll probably only be able to do that in the summer since I'm really busy with school.
