Fictionist

Welcome to my new blog. I was at a concert tonight feeling the vibe, when I decided that I was going to start a music blog. So here it goes!!

I would like to start off by saying that I love music and that I love finding new music, even if the band has been around for awhile. A couple weeks ago I was flipping through the Utah Business magazine when i came across a familiar face, Stuart Maxfield! He is a member of the LDS faith, just like I am and he is actually in my bishopric. I read what it said about him and found out that he was in a band. I also found out that this band was quite popular.

After finding this article, I did what any normal person would do...stock him. Ok I didn't actually follow him around, but I added him and the band on Facebook. I looked them up on twitter. I found their website. I downloaded any and all songs that they offered and I found out that they were playing a free outdoor concert.

Tonight was that concert at Sammy's cafe. They were accompanied by a few other bands: Mindy Gladhill, The Neighbors, The Vibrant Sound and Allred (one of my favorite bands). I was there with my fiance Bianca and couldn't wait to see them live.

I must say that it was bliss. They were so great live! I have yet to go to a concert where the band was not good live, and so I was glad that this was not the first. Stuart was full of energy and rocked it up on the bass!

It also was cool that they were filming a music video and that the popo shut us down!

I guess from all of this I am saying...Fictionist is now on my top five, and I highly recommend them! Check their website fictionist.com!! Also vote for them to be on the cover of Rolling Stones Magazine!!
