Signed Papercuts - Nothingness

Sooner or later, you come to believe that you already have seen all the bands you want to see. I went to Blekingska with my friend Anna last Friday to see Bridal Shop. By chance, we got to talk to a friend of the band after the show. She asked us what band we most of all wanted to see live. Anna had previously told me that Stars were booked for this year's Accelerator festivial. We both said that we wanted to see Stars live.

In recent days, I had a look at the flights and trains to Stockholm, only to realise that it would be too expensive to go there just for a concert with Stars. I hope that Stars will play at Vega in Copenhagen. Otherwise, I am not very interested in concerts this spring. I came up with the following "list" after I checked the upcoming concerts in this region:

March 28 at Blekingska in Lund - Friday Bridge
April 11 at Mejeriet in Lund - El Perro del Mar

I have seen both of them live before so this concert spring will certainly not bring me any major surprises. It would had been fun to see Marit Bergman again, but her concert is arranged by Kulturbolaget and I will not go there again. Firefox Ak is playing at Mejeriet in April and I like her music but not so much that I would pay 120 SEK in entrance. In that case I rather attend a gig with a small band that surprises me, like Signed Papercuts lit up a small stage on a cold December night.
