Last year I was introduced to a musical artist and fell in love with her music. Her name is Kate Nash. Her music is funny, clever, and quirky. When I heard she would be playing live in Belfast I knew that I had to go. Unfortunately none of my friends here had heard of Kate Nash, so it took a little convincing to talk someone into going. In any case I was able to. The concert was on a Saturday night at Queen's University. I had never been to the Queen's University student union before and I thought it was significantly better than ours, which may be due to the fact that it's in Belfast as opposed to Jordanstown or just that it was new and different. There were two opening bands for her whose names I do not remember, which is unfortunate because they were actually pretty good.

Anyways, Kate Nash came on stage at around 10 o'clock and she put on one of the best shows I have ever seen. The concert hall was very small providing a very intimate concert atmosphere and we were able to get pretty close to the stage. She played all of my favourite songs like Pumpkin Soup, Merry Happy, and Foundations. I'll try to see if I can post some of the videos I took on here.

After the concert was over, we headed over to a pub called Auntie Annie's by Great Victoria Street train station for a friend's birthday and had a great time. That's one of the things I love about living right near Belfast. There is always something going on in the city and there is always something to do and people to hang out with. I think that is what I will miss most when I go home.
