"Where Is My Mind?" is a song by the Americanalternative rock band Pixies. It is the seventh track on their 1988 debut album Surfer Rosa. The song was written by frontmanBlack Francis while he attended the University of Massachusetts Amherst, inspired by his experiences while scuba diving in the Caribbean. He later said he had "this very small fish trying to chase me. I don't know why—I don't know too much about fish behavior."

Kings of Leon is an American rock band that formed in Nashville, Tennessee, in 2000. The band is composed of brothers Caleb Followill (b. January 14, 1982, lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Nathan Followill (b. June 26, 1979, drums, percussion, backing vocals) and Jared Followill (b. November 20, 1986, bass guitar, backing vocals), with their cousin Matthew Followill (b. September 10, 1984, lead guitar, backing vocals).
The band's early music was a blend of Southern rock and blues influences, but it has gradually expanded throughout the years to include a variety of genres and a more alternative, arena rock sound. Kings of Leon achieved initial success in the United Kingdom with nine Top 40 singles, two BRIT Awards in 2008, and all three of the band's albums at the time peaked in the top five of the UK Albums Chart. Their third album, Because of the Times, also reached the number one spot. After the release of Only by the Night in September 2008 the band achieved chart success in the United States. The singles "Sex on Fire", "Use Somebody", and "Notion" all peaked at number one on the Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart. The album was their first Platinum-selling album in the United States, and was also the best-selling album of 2008 in Australia, being certified platinum nine times. The band's fifth album, Come Around Sundown, was released on October 18, 2010. Their sixth album, Mechanical Bull, was released on September 24, 2013.
In the reign of Ordoño I of Asturias (850–866), the kingdom began to be known as that of León. In 910, an independent Kingdom of León was founded when the king of Asturias divided his territory amongst his three sons.
Below follows a list of Leonese monarchs. It is, in part, a continuation of the list of Asturian monarchs.
Henry II was the illegitimate son of Alfonso XI. He was made duke of Trastámara.

Other Tidbits:
At the end of their usual set, Caleb Followill said that they originally planned on walking off-stage, waiting to be called back, and then play an encore, but they decided to just play on so that they could squeeze in a few more songs for us.
During the set, you could often see a Fire Marshall walking about offstage. The fans were wondering why he was there up until the final song, when the backdrop exploded with several sets of fireworks. Everything you can see in that metallic backdrop that didn't light up was actually a fireworks pack! Great show.

With your feet in the air, And your head on the ground, Try this trick, Spin it, Yeah, Your head will collapse, But there's nothing in, But you ask yourself, Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my, mind? I was swimming in the Caribbean, Animals were hiding, behind the rocks, Except the little fish, And he told me, He was trying to talk to me, talk to me, Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Way out in the water, See it swimming, Where is my mind? Way out in the water, See it swimming, Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my, mind? With your feet the air, And your head on the ground, Try this trick, Spin it,
