Regina

I love Regina Spektor!!!! That is all I have to say..... Last night my friends and I attended her concert in Salt Lake City at In the Venue. It was absolutely amazing. First, the night began( in a large suburban to fit all 8 of us) as it took us an hour and half to get to Salt Lake city because there was crazy traffic all the way there. Only one wreck in salt lake. (who knows if that had us stopped clear back to provo) We finally reached our destination Hires Big H.... If you haven't been please go, 4th south 7th east. Such amazing fries, burgers, sandwiches, shakes, root-beer in a frozen mug! So delicious. Because of the traffic we had to eat extremely fast. As we were eating and our friend texted us and said there was only one opener and that regina was coming on. We through down our food and ran. We parked at gateway and 8 of us ran the entire way. Im sure the people at the gateway thought we were absolutely crazy according to some of the awkward stares I saw as I ran past. my roommate sarah almost died running because she has mono and the rest of us almost died because the freezing air was killing our lungs. We got there and ran in to find out we had only missed the opening song. People were over flowing everywhere. We weren't quite sure where we were going to stand to see anything. She is one of the most talented people I know. If you don't know her, most of her songs include her playing the piano and singing. Also she plays the guitar and sings. Her fingers moved like fire across the black Steinway. SHE IS AMAZING! At one point she was playing a drum stick on a wooden chair, singing, playing the piano and handling the foot pedal. I have a really big appreciation for music, it brings goodness, soul, life, into my life. It makes the world go round. Check her out! PS she has two songs in the movie 500 days of summer. If you haven't seen that, you are missing out on life! Love it
