Bands & Lyrics Week Day 1- Queensryche
I might take this theme literally and share with you photographs of some of our favorite bands (and singers) ;) Don't look for quality pictures here - these have a lot of sentimental value and little artistic contribution (as for example this one - zero :) ). But they were all taken during happy times, and they make me smile and hear the music in my head every time I see them.
Chris - looking as happy as a kid meeting Micky Mouse - on his birthday in 2003, in New Orleans, with Geoff Tate from Queensryche. We watched them for the first time that night, at the House of Blues - we drove from Jackson, MS for the show.
After the show, Chris convinced me to wait and see if we can sneak a peak at the band as they were leaving. I wasn't that keen on it. But Geoff Tate came out to meet his fans - and in the craziness there I manged to get his attention (Me - the big mouth... ) by asking him if he knows where's we're from, so he looked at us - I said "Romania, and we're huge fans of yours!" Then I also shouted "And it's HIS birthday tonight!", pointing at my speechless husband :) So Geoff wished him Happy Birthday and posed with him for a picture :)
I think Chris wore this same exact grin on a face for at least another week :)
All alone now
Except for the memories
Of what we had and what we knew
Everytime I try to leave it behind me
I see something that reminds me of you
Every night the dreams return to haunt me
Your rosary wrapped around your throat
I lie awake and sweat, afraid to fall asleep
I see your face looking back at me
And I raise my head and stare
Into the eyes of a stranger
I've always known that the mirror never lies
People always turn away
From the eyes of a stranger
Afraid to know what
Lies behind the star
