Paul McCartney - Blackbird




Sir Paul McCartney visited Stockholm, last night.

Stones and me worked on Motorhead yesterday so we didnt see it, but I heard from my colleagues at the gig that it was very good.



Did u guys know he have 1984 wrote and starred an animated.
That he paints, designed a series of stamps, released a book of poems and is a vegetarians and animal-rights activists. At the gig they didnt serve any meat in the Globe at all!

He married Nancy Shevell this year in October.



Ah well here is a good video from the gig yesterday.

Ladys and Gents, here is PAUL with an acoustic tune, Blackbird.

Love, Thetania

Linkin Park - The Catalyst


Linkin Park is an American rock band from Agoura Hills, California. Formed in 1996, the band rose to international fame with their debut album, Hybrid Theory, which was certified Diamond by the RIAA in 2005 and multi-platinum in several other countries. Its following studio album, Meteora, continued the band's success, topping the Billboard 200 album chart in 2003, and was followed by extensive touring and charity work around the world.



Having adapted the nu metal and rap metal genres to a radio-friendly yet densely layered style in Hybrid Theory and Meteora, the band explored other genres in their next studio album, Minutes to Midnight, which was released in 2007. The band has collaborated with several other artists, most notably with rapper Jay-Z in their mashup EP Collision Course, and many others included on Reanimation. The band's most recent work, the concept album A Thousand Suns, was released on September 8, 2010. Linkin Park has sold over 50 million albums worldwide and has won two Grammy Awards.



Linkin Park is out touring in Europe with "Middle Class Rut” as support act and yesterday they did a stop at the Globe, this time both me and Thetania was there working. It was a long, very long day but i had kind fun afterall. Linkin Park's show is full of energy and joy, all singing along, though at times I do not recognize them when they step into the more dance-like adventure and stroboscope flashes more than usual.

Here is some pictures from the gig.














Todays tune "The Catalyst" is a the first single from their fourth studio album, A Thousand Suns, which was released on September 8, 2010. The music video for the song, directed by the band's turntablist Joe Hahn, was released on August 26, 2010. The album was written by the band and co-produced by Linkin Park vocalist Mike Shinoda and Rick Rubin, who previously worked together to produce Minutes to Midnight (2007).







A Thousand Suns is a concept album dealing with human fears such as nuclear warfare. "On this record, the concepts blend human ideas with technology [...] Human fears, your fear of what's going to happen in the world, the music kind of references that", said Mike Shinoda on an interview with MTV. The album's title comes from the Hindu Sanskrit scripture, the Bhagavad Gita: "If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the mighty one," a quote made famous by J. Robert Oppenheimer in reference to the atomic bomb.

Rush - Witch Hunt



Hey there People!
Im slowly getting back after last week.... :D
Okey so today's tune is the Friday gig at the Stockholm Ericsson Globe Arena Rush!

I came pretty late, so i didn't manage to take any photos at the gig.
But I took some b4, I was totally amazed over his (Neil Peart) drum set.
It was in a reddish/goldish color, with alchemical signs on it.
Totally Awesome! Look below)

I just heard the last songs, they sounded good although his (Geddy Lee) voice wasn't like it use to be, but hey that's okay.



For u that don't know ure Rush its a Canadian rock band that begun in 1968, more than 40 years of activity has provided Rush with the opportunity for musical diversity across their discography. As with many bands known for experimentation.



I picked a tune from their album "Snakes & Arrows Live", according to drummer and lyricist Neil Peart, inspiration for the title of the album was conceived after considerable research from several sources; the 2000-year-old Buddhist game called "Leela, the Game of Self Knowledge," the related children's game Snakes and Ladders (also known as Chutes and Ladders), and Hamlet's quote "slings and arrows." This information helped convince bassist Geddy Lee and guitarist Alex Lifeson to adopt the original painting of the age old game board as the cover for the 2007 "Snakes & Arrows" album.

Malmo May 8,2011
Dublin May 12

Roger Waters - Comfortably Numb



Roger Waters and his HUGE Wall was in the Stockholm Globe on the 11th and 12th May.



A biggish production, we did the load in on Wednesday morning begun 05.00am and I think we were ready around 1.30pm or at least most of us went home.

The stage was parted in 2 sets with 2 drum sets and 2 keyboard sets. One b4 and under the building of the wall and one in the high back. They had a mid construction that could go up and down in order to place the bricks in place and to run up the singer and guitar guy up above the wall. The bricks were made of cardboard. My friend were up there and she nearly broke the wall when she bended down a bit...haha.

Another friend of mine had her son among the kids that were singing there, they did a great job!

The gig was amazing with all these amazing videos and thingies that kept coming down from the rig, schoolmaster etc... They had 15 projectors up over the audience to cover it all.

Ah well it was awesome, and soo damn hard, my t-shirt was all wet :)

The Wall tour opened 15 September 2010 in Toronto, and moved through North America before ending the first leg of the tour in Mexico City, 21 December 2010. The world tour will include Europe, starting 21 March 2011 in Lisbon, Portugal, and tentatively ending 8 July 2011, in Athens, Greece Waters has expressed wishes to visit other areas with the show after the European leg, but as of yet nothing has been announced. A total of 118 gigs...

We took some pics on the show that we wanted to share.



















Okey Folks here is Comfortably Numb!
Peace, Thetania
