At the end of the world, or the last thing I see

[exsequar]

In one of the magazines I picked up at Borders, Gerard was asked to give five words to describe his bandmates. His answer was: passionate, fun, sweet, nerdy and talented. *sigh of love*

I drove through the birthplace of MCR today - Belleville, NJ. It's so... Jersey, completely typical of working-class Americana. It was a little surreal and a lot cool :)

I'm home! I made dinner with my daddy, and ate said delicious dinner, and am happy. Made the fam listen to MCR's live compilation from LOTMS in the car on the way home, and I think my dad really liked it. \o/

neverneverfic said something about last.fm that made me curious - when she made her account, it retroactively counted everything she'd played in her media player. I guess that's a new feature, because it didn't do that when I made my account. So to test that out, I started a new account and it was like, want us to count your history? And I was like, ooh, yes plz! The result is pretty nifty. On my old account, which has been counting plays since April, the top five looks like this:

MCR: 2,168
Panic!: 1,599
TAI...: 1,196
FOB: 1,086
Tom McRae: 603
TOTAL: 12,243

Now, on my brand new account, which includes all plays since last September, which is when I got this computer, the top five six look like this (including The Used, because I am amused that a band I downloaded two weeks ago is number six on my year+ list):

MCR: 3,243
FOB: 2,299
Panic!: 1,798
TAI...: 1,519
Bush: 874
The Used: 763
TOTAL: 29,092

Crazy! Apparently I listened to MCR a thousand times between December 06 (when I got TBP) and April! And I knew FOB was disastrously underrepresented. Oh, this also takes into account all my iPod plays, which last.fm often fails to scrobble. Last.fm is addictive, you guys. ♥

In other news, have Gee introducing the lead singer of The Bled - Frank takes off the guy's shirt for him, and then the guy hugs Gerard and kisses him on the cheek. !!!! *fans self*

OH HAI Panic! website was just updated!!! 01:01:08!!!!!

I assume that's a demo or something up in the corner? And that they are obliquely referencing January 1st? Or...not? WHY DO I CARE?

The source code would like to know if I would like an hors d'oeuvre. I... can't believe I looked at that. :(

I've heard the theory that it's a snippet of a new song backwards? But I'm not sure if I believe that. I do think it means the single will be dropping on Jan 1st, which, YAYE. Aaaand YOU CARE BECAUSE THEY ARE THE MOST PRECIOUSEST BABIES EVER. <333333

Oh dear, that is completely true. STUPID PANIC. I am stubbornly in denial about your stupid precious faces!

... all my iPod plays, which last.fm often fails to scrobble
TOTALLY! It only scrobbled my iPod twice and then it just stopped doing it. I re-installed the scrobble-thing but it doesn't work anymore. Weird.

And last.fm is SOO addictive!!
I have my account since almost two weeks and I'm so intrigued by this whole thing.

What's your name on last.fm? I'd like to add you to my friends there. :)

Well I guess I'm going to be using my new account from now on, so it's starsouls1013 :)

adding you, thanks :)
