One of the things I was most excited for this month was The Academy Is & Jacks Mannequin show in Vancouver. Unfortunately, yesterday morning William Beckett announced that the band was breaking up. I’m so sad to see what’s happening to some of the best bands in the music industry. Augustana, a band I was introduced to by one of my best friends Jenn, broke up a few months ago as well. I remember her going on and on about how amazing they were and when they broke up I immediately wrote to her to say how sorry I was. She was devastated. I realize things to work out but it’s heart breaking on those people who follow a band from the beginning. I know if it ever happened to Hedley that I wouldn’t know what to do with myself.
What makes it worse was that these shows were booked and they have officially backed out of them. I don’t even get to see TAI play one more time. It’s tough to be a music fan sometimes. I’ve been a fan of The Academy Is for about 4 years now and their music made me smile. I’ll never forget Jenns dance off to their song in Mexico or their show in Montreal..WILLLIIIAMMMM BECKETTTTTT!!!!!!!! RIP TAI.
In other news….HOCKEY IS BACK! Nothing makes me happier then getting together with friends to scream like men and eat like pigs. The summer is always so long without my hockey team. It wasn’t the best start to the season but I can take a lose to the Leafs because I feel like this is going to be a great season. Tonight it’s JETS/HABS. I’m so happy hockey is back in Canada:D
