VICTORIA BOUND

I just arrived back at home within the last ten minutes in time to hopefully catch the CTV spot that Becky and I did this evening before packing up my backpack and heading to bed. The Shout Out Louds played a great set this evening and they’re one of those few bands that translates well when live. Hey, and I even recognized a song or two. Go figure.

Anyways, with my trip to Victoria comes a lack of blogging over the next day and a half until I’m home Sunday night, so I’ll leave you with something to discuss. I’ll turn the comment moderator off, so I’m trusting you kids to behave yourselves and discuss politely.

Anyone that attended a junior high or high school dance in the early 1990s was subjected to Guns ‘N’ Roses’ staple video, “November Rain.” This epic fable features performance footage and a fictional account of Axl Rose’s marriage to real-life love (at the time), Stephanie Seymour. In the video, Rose’s wife mysteriously dies during their wedding reception, and the last shots of her we see are in a coffin with what appears to be a mirror separating her face. So my question for all of you to discuss is this: how did Axl Rose’s fictional bride die?

Generate your own theories and discuss while I’m in Victoria.

I never considered *how* she died…I always thought she just died, I guess and I always thought that the video was a symbolization for the death of a relationship.
BTW-completely was a staple, loved it. Also? didn’t know you were Vic bound this weekend. Hope you have a good time.

Families of head-trauma victims, who want to have an open-casket funeral, can use a mirror reflecting the intact side of the face to make the deceased appear whole….Gunshot?

Not really to do with Axel at all, but I’m still somewhat in the dark about the news article, why did this person steal your content or identity?
