Irish Musician
Kate's ^ Boyfriend of the Week:
Tristan Rosenstock
Name: Tristan Rosenstock is his name now so I'm assuming that is also his birth name...
Born:  Well, I know he's somewhere in his twenties and that Glenageary is where he is from
    Unfortunately I don't know very much about Tristan Rosenstock.  I know he plays the bodhran in an Irish band called teada.  The bodhran is a weird little drummy thing that you can see in the top left pictures.  He apparently started playing when he was 10.  I know that the band is really good and Tristan is really funny, nice, and hot.  From meeting him I would say he's just a loveable goofball.  Oh, but the pictures I found just don't do him justice. I saw teada at Celtic Classic twice this weekend.  It was well worth not studying enough for genetics.  They just make you want to get up and dance (as many people did!).  Irish music is not something I have ever listened to but I'm glad these guys were the first ones I saw because now I want to hear more! 
     Anyway, back to Tristan...  Vicky and me were sitting there drooling over him the whole time.  We even went and bought their CD and got all of their autographs.  They passed the CD cover so fast that I had to run down to Tristan so I could say hi while he signed it.  I told Vicky I wanted to have his babies right now but then Amy reminded me that we might be going to China this summer and I would probably have the baby in China so that isn't a real good idea.  :o)  He just finished studies in Irish and Old Irish at Trinity College in Dublin so that says something about him thinking education is important.  I'm sure he could have quit school for the band but he didn't.
     So by now you may or may not be wondering how I have a picture of me and him together.  Well, the second time we saw them we waited and asked if we could have our picture taken with the group.  (This, of course, after we sat there taking pictures during the concert everytime Tristan turned our way.)  We waited with them for a few minutes while Paul went to "get the lads together".  They were all really nice to us.  We joked around with Tristan and he said he would count to three and we could take a picture of him with a weird face.  Since I have a digital camera I showed it to him and he said I had to blow it up big and put it on my bedroom wall.  While I'm not going to do that, I already have a picture of him on my wall.  The picture is a little frightening if you weren't there so I think I'll keep it to myself.  Anyway, I was next to him in the group picture, so I just cut everybody else out.  What??  He's leaning toward me, if you ignore John and Paul's shoulder it could just be us! :o)  Too bad I don't have a scanner to scan in Amy's copy, that one's better.  hehe
     I wish I could find better pictures of him online but his band is really new and less then megastars so it's hard to find websites and information on them.  Anyway, I will definately be keeping an eye on Tristan and the rest of the guys from teada and I suggest if you want to hear some different music you try them out too!  They are coming back to the states in March and I know me, Vicky and Amy will be there NOT being stalkers!  (Even though Amy and Vicky wanted to kidnap him and have him live under their bed.  But that wouldn't be very fair.  Haha, wow I feel 13.)
