I'm Alone In The Belk Center

Greetings all (three of you)!

This post will be a little random since I normally report on the different plays I've seen, but maybe this post will the better for it.

I'm not sure if anyone knows this, but I am a mild fan of U2. This is mostly due to the fact that I have a friend who is a huge fan and this has rubbed off on me. U2 just released their first single off their new album "No Line on the Horizon." The single is titled "Get on Your Boots." The song is a return to the kind of style they explored in the early 90's. Quicker and catchier. I really like it. But perhaps what amzed me the most about the single was the music video. It doesn't suck. I've always felt that in the visuals department, U2 is fantastic on stage but a little lacking on film. This music video was excellent, as was the song. I am really looking foward to hearing the whole album.

Here's the video so you can check it out for yourself.

In other news, I am sitting typing this in the Belk Student Center at Montreat College, which is currently completely deserted. It has led me to compose and sing this song, aloud;

I'm alone in the Belk Center and
There's nobody else around
I'm alone in the Belk Center and
There's nobody else around

And I'm singing this song so that
If anyone else is around
They'll pop their heads and
Say say stop singing!

If you want the melody, I'd be more than happy to oblige you. Just find me. I'm rather charmed by it, but of course, I'm the author.

Yours bored,
Nathan.
