"...and they have escaped the weight of darkness"




Tuesday night was incredible!

Last weekend I was blog hopping about and saw an amazing video on my friend Peggy's Passion and Inspiration. I loved everything about it! She informed me on facebook (and through her blog) that the artist was touring. My wonderful boyfriend noticed that and he immediately bought tickets to the show!
How spontaneous and rad!

(Thanks Peggy! Thanks Mike!)

Aside from burning my forehead with a curling iron while getting ready to go out, the whole night was perfect.

Mike and I went for food and drinks beforehand and the show was incredible, like I mentioned above.

Here are a couple pictures I managed to sneak.




Yeah, that's Olafur Arnalds performing at The Cedar Cultural Center.

Now one of my favorite musicians!

When the show was over we hung out at the theater and had a beer and we met Olafur and chatted a bit with him. He was very pleasant. Oh and he made a few funny jokes while on stage. Said (with his Icelandic accent) the band and he went to the Mall of America and the only thing he bought was a magnet that said, "McCain for President."

Here is a picture of us with him.


(Maybe not the best picture I've ever been in, but at it'll do.)

After taking in all that beautiful music we went to a dive bar and played darts. I lost like I always do, but had fun like always do.

Now here is a video from Olafur Arnalds that I like even more than the one I saw on Peggy's blog.
Plus, many of the images in this video were projected during the concert.

Enjoy!
