Hey AmpedAsians!

Yesterday, I went to an event called Vans Warped Tour 2009 with my sisters and friends. For the ones who aren't aware of what that is, it's an event where numerous bands from around the globe travel together to perform in various cities around the world. They stopped at our city as one of their tour's venue before heading off to Sacramento, CA then to San Diego, CA.

The crowds were screaming with anticipation, fans sweating in the extreme heat, booming music that could blast your ears off if you stand too close. Everyone had a blast, including me. Even though I went home early as I couldn't stand the heat, I felt honored to meet unfamiliar faces and seeing these bands performed live. It was amazing! Big Grin

Surprisingly, I had the opportunity to meet Meg+Dia in person, autograph poster signed, and pictures taken.

Who is Meg+Dia?

Meg+Dia is a band of 5 people of various ethnicities from Utah, CA:

Dia Frampton: Vocals
Meg Frampton: Vocals/guitar
Nick Price: Drums
Jonathan Snyder: Bass
Carlo Gimenez: Guitar

They performed live really well and I was much surprised on how good the lead singer's singing ability. If you're wondering why Meg and Dia looks like they have Asian facial features, it's because they are Asians. Meg, Dia, and Carlo all have Asian background. Meg and Dia are half Caucasian and half Korean. If you thought Meg and Dia looks pretty in pictures, they are even prettier in person.

It would be awesome to see more Asians conquer the rock stage.

Anyhow, here's some pictures I took at the live event and have uploaded the live performance of "Monster" from Meg+Dia. My apologies for the bad quality video Sad
