Trend Bush!

Today, both myself and all the members of the Bush Army, a group of dedicated fans of the band Bush, will be attempting to trend the band on Twitter. I’d love it if some of my great readers could jump on board and help! Everyone knows how much the band means to me and how excellent they are with their fans from all my amazing experiences I have shared on here, so they are definitely well worth it. And all you have to do is pretty simple:

1. Log into your Twitter account or create an account here (it’s free!).

2. Make a post. About anything related to the band and/or music. Make sure to include the following hashtag: #Bush

Easy as 1,2…wait, there’s not even a 3!

Hope you can all participate. And for all of those that find my activity today annoying, feel free to block my tweets or just ignore them. I’ll be back to my regular tweeting schedule tomorrow!

ps; Special thanks to Ace for putting the video above together. Make sure to check out her other Bush-related videos on her youtube channel, ChemicalsBWus!

BUSH Twitter Giveaway!

The always fabulous Gavin Rossdale just announced on his Twitter tonight that if he reaches 20,000 followers, he will gift one of them with a pair of VIP tickets to Epicenter Fest, where they will not only witness Bush’s first show back together since 2002, but do so from up-top the stage! So what are you waiting for? You can follow G right here! For how to enter the contest, read through the official rules on Bush’s Facebook page.

Don’t know if you guys remember, but I had a dream last month where I was asked to come onstage during Bush’s first show. Premonition? I hope so! Good luck to everyone who enters and regardless, I will see you all at Epicenter in only a couple of weeks!

Lovable Friday!

1. Prop 8 Overturned

Wednesday marked a very important day in the state of California that will hopefully have a ripple effect on the rest of the country. A federal judge ruled that Proposition 8, which banned same-sex marriage, was unconstitutional and it was overturned. Being a fan of equal rights (um, who wouldn’t be?) and a firm supporter of gay rights, I could not be happier. In fact, I can’t believe that any sort of discrimination over whom you decide to love is still an issue in 2010 (or was ever an issue really). Congratulations, California!

I have a Santa hat – neener!

& just because we are one measly day away from Friday, here is a new Melificent mixtape: Happiness is a Warm Mixtape. This mix was inspired from songs that make my heart smile and make me feel squishy. Basically, like an equivalent of a warm and comfy blanket. I hope you all enjoy it and that it carries you through to the weekend with a little more bounce in your step or at least a little more love in your heart.

Lovable Friday!

1. Trip to California!
1. Trip to California!

Next week the hubs and I will be heading to the west coast to join in the festivities for his cousin’s high school graduation in Folsom, CA. Although we will only have one day to enjoy the amazing-ness that is San Francisco, I will take it! The hubs grew up in the Bay Area so no doubt his heart strings will be pulled hard and tight – can’t make any promises that we will want to come back! 😉 This also means that Melificent will be devoid of any posts next week, so try not to miss me too much! Hopefully I’ll return with some great posts about my trip. On an aside, I have no idea what to pack for our day in SF! This Miami girl does not know how to handle drastically changing day-to-night weather! Yipes!
