confession time

I am caught up again with SPN (although I was less not-caught up than I thought I was, oops), because [livejournal.com profile] barkley is made of convincing. Watch out for that. Anyway, I am happy, and I care not where the rest of fandom is on this.

That's not much of a confession, really, and the rest of this shouldn't be, either. See, I went to the Honda Civic Tour with [livejournal.com profile] thepouncer and many other assorted fangirls in DC last Wednesday, and on top of having a new appreciation for The Hush Sound, I am now firmly in love with Panic. It's allowed! Pouncer then promised me fun if we ignored all common sense and went to College Park for Cobra Starship at the University of Maryland, and, um, okay. Now I get it. Tell me true, is it pheromones? Because in two hours I went from only a knowledge of "Gabe = basement & VickyT = hotness on Legs" to incoherent "!!!!" about the whole damn band. What? No, seriously, what the hell happened there? Now I have MCR in Philly tonight, for which it would really help if I were to get dressed, I suspect. But I feel so much better today than I did yesterday (note to self: never call in sick, because guess what, you get sick), and it's sunny but breezy, and MCR is what started this all for me and I do believe \o/ is called for. So, yeah. Ignore the subject line.

Enjoy Philly! You're on the fun side of the city for this one. Nice to know we'll be in the same zipcode, if only briefly.

I will be down again! We will have to coordinate!

I've just been quiet about it, OMG NO JUDGINESS MS ROBOT PORN.

::tacklehugs:: HI. :)

Robot porn? Moi? I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

(There are days when it seems there is more bandom on my friendslist than robot porn. IT CONFUSES ME. :O )

I don't know about pheromones, but Gabe Saporta has the power to make me get all flustered when he smiles right at me. I was not expecting that, dude.

But yeah, Cobra shows are SO. MUCH. FUN. And the band is SO. VERY. PRETTY.

In conclusion: OMG MCR WOO \o/. Three shows in a row were just not enough.

[identity profile] elishavah.livejournal.com 2008-05-07 01:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Flustered, oh yes. It's the smile. Isn't it always?

But really, my thought process was something like, "la, la, fun rocking music...OMG GEEKS HAVING FUN THAT'S WHAT THEY ARE \o/" I am a sucker for that.

And I am never going to recover from finally seeing MCR live. Dead. Dead of !!! and disappointment that I can't see them again tonight and Friday, argh, life, but MCR WOOOOOOOO. Wow, my sentences have gone to shit. (Have they been telling everyone about their plans for the next two years or so? I haven't been paying attention to show reports.)

[identity profile] shrift.livejournal.com 2008-05-07 04:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, yes. Cobra is composed of GEEKS. Geeks who rock out, oh yeah!

And MCR, man. I wish I could send a note back to myself through time so that I could have gone to MOAR CONCERTS over the years. Because they totally rocked my face off, and I came out of each concert with cartoon hearts in my eyes and birds chirping over my head.

(Have they been telling everyone about their plans for the next two years or so? I haven't been paying attention to show reports.)

Gerard started out saying two years, but by Detroit he was saying six months. I think they're planning to take a few months off before they go back in the studio, but who knows what these crazy dudes will end up doing?

As long as they give Bob enough time off for his wrists to heal up. In Chicago. Where I might, uh, run into him. Or something.

I'm happy with SPN too. I don't require it to be the best show on tv. Just good enough to make me happy. *g*

[identity profile] thepouncer.livejournal.com 2008-05-06 06:37 pm (UTC)(link)
It probably is pheromones. I'm still kind of giddy from Friday, and this is after tummy nastiness on Sunday and Monday!

Enjoy yourself tonight, and report back. I want details!

I will forgive you this odd turn in your affections. However, next time you see me, I might be wearing garlic so as to ward off any influence you might have upon me in similar direction.

(What? Bandom is totally like being a vampire. It makes you obsess about pale, skinny men who wear eyeliner and pants that don't fit them.)

Feel better soon, sending you a smooch. :)
