Honours Seminar: I had the privilege of being invited to the London Program Honours Seminar, and tonight was the first class meeting. There are ten of us, and we basically chatted about why we chose Notre Dame and then various other things. It seems like it will be a great class, and the assistant director "teaches" it and is great. Very interesting guy.
Dodos: Went to a concert tonight at University of London Union (ULU) to see a band called The Dodos perform. Absolutely amazing... they're so upbeat and energetic on the recorded songs, and live was just incredible.
Here's the trash can one of the guys bangs on with drum sticks during the show:
And here's the frontman rocking out:
A security guard came over and told me I couldn't take pictures with a "professional camera" unless I had a pass, but I had the perfect way to get around it. I was in the front and center, but in between the guard and me was a monitor. I was able to put my camera in my purse behind the monitor from the guard and shoot blindly. Kind of fun, and plus, I was able to pay more attention to the music.
Oh, did I mention they were filming the show for a DVD? I'll have to watch out for that - funny having Americans at the front of a show in London. I met a girl from the Netherlands there too who was also in the front.

HALEY....YOU ARE ENJOYING A SEMESTER THAT YOU

in London and still visit other countries.

Yeah, now I'm jealous. See, I also took photos of them in concert. However it was on my 2mp phone camera and for some reason, I didn't get quite the same quality shot that you did here. The photo of the singer is amazing. I unfortunately have to miss their next show in Detroit because I'm down in Austin now. Hope everything is well!
