tayxmusic: Halestorm The Awesome



Halestorm L-R: Arejay Hale, Josh Smith, Lizzy Hale, Joe Hottinger (or something like that)

Have you heard of Halestorm?

Loveliest question that could ever drop from anyone's lips in this dead country that doesn't give a hoot about good music.

It vexes me like, really...

Anywho, today's post focuses on Halestorm (the band of course. The front woman-Lzzy Hale- gets a post all of her own)

Their most recent album- The Strange Case Of... is super cool, super loud and super awesome. Nuff said.

Lzzy and Arejay (her brother) made the band sometime in the late '90s when Lzzy was 13 and her brother was 10. They played EVERYWHERE. If there was a gig, they took it. That tells us something people. It really does...

They've toured with some of THE hottest rock/metal acts EVER! Seether, Papa Roach, Three Days Grace, Evanescence, Shinedown (awesome right? Y'all probably don't even understand my lingo right now...it's cool, it's cool)

They recently won a Grammy (friggin cool!) and they still can't believe it. Click here to see what they had to say about it.

They are cool, undeniably. I hope to get the chance to interview them one day. Insane stuff...

Keep on rocking Halestorm.

See the proper history of the band here on their website: Halestorm Rocks

Note: Readers check back to see the post on Lzzy Hale, the woman behind the band.

Yes, yes, Nigerians are making us proud,  again. Let me explain to you that doing a collaboration thing with JC Penney is (or a brand of equal caliber)  one of THE coolest honours in that  can possibly be bestowed on any designer. So, great job Mr. Duro. Great job...

Food At Sea

This place has got to be one of the most amazing restaurants I've ever been to.

It's sea-themed but it has a lot of charm and space and it's in Nigeria...my country...unbelievable.

They aren't just seafood oriented though- they have lamb and chicken and ribs. As a vegetarian I'm not really into all of that, but it all looks delicioso..

It's called Coral Blue and it really is blue...check out the place settings...

And get this...even the bathrooms are sea themed...in Nigeria...

It's Sunday, I'm stuffed and I'm offline. Enjoy the pics of the restaurant!

Sunsets

They're beautiful right...

I mean there's not much that beats a good sunset, a nice truck or skyline apartment and a wonderful view. Sunsets bond people, they make people happy, and whatnot.

I saw this one on the ride back home yesterday. Hope it makes you happy.

Italia

My dad's going to Italy.

I'm so psyched!

He's said he's going to take pictures for me, of people, bulidings, everything.

He's awesome.

So, this year, I decided to follow America's Next Top Model. We have an old version cos we're kind of behind. Eh...

It's Brits vs. Yanks this time and the competition is hot!

I don't sant to sneak a Wiki check cos I want to follow it like a normal person...

Anywho, my mid terms are done (yay!) and I'm going to do my best to post as much of as possible.

Much love,
