My love has drifted out to sea

[exsequar]

Friends list cut has been ACCOMPLISHED. Starting total: 518. Final total: 235.

Christ. I'd say that was a bit overdue, wouldn't you? I had journals friended whose last entry was in 2006. I had people friended who had long since defriended me and were friends locked. I just needed to clean out that damn closet. And I feel so much better now that I've done it.

I really hope I didn't hurt anyone's feelings. If I somehow cut you in error and you'd really want to stick around, please say something, it really was a huge job. But I feel a lot more honest now, because there were a LOT of journals I just wasn't reading. I'll still be filtering but mostly to keep things straight in terms of subject matter, so there's Bandom, SGA, and Other, at the moment.

Moving on!

PANIC AT THE SAUCE

Ugh, STEVEN SMITH. Why do I heart you so hard? He starts the interview with "I, I, I love you." And the boys kind of giggle and Brendon goes "We love YOU." Hee! And dude, when did Ryan become the comedian?? He's rambling about how he got his scarf in the SHIRE and his boys are just literally falling over laughing. SO FUCKING CUTE. And the whispering! And the high fives! SO MANY HEARTS IN MY EYES, YOU GUYS. I can't wait for the SURS clip :D

teaspoon just posted about how - wait for it - Steven Smith and Mikey fucking WAY are going to be JUDGING A KARAOKE COMPETITION at ANGELS & KINGS.

I'll let that sink in for a moment.

Is that not the most lolarious and awesome thing you have EVER HEARD? Mikey Way! I don't know what to do with you! Judging a karaoke night at your ex boyfriend's bar! If this gets us some Mikey/Pete pictures, well. THAT WOULD BE AWESOME. And Steven! Steven who has a ginormous crush on Gerard! And who is just adorable beyond the telling of it!

I really hope this heralds more interaction between the MCR and FOB camps to come. Because that would just be unspeakably awesome. It is my life's dream to see Gerard and Ryan have a conversation, OKAY? Bwee.

Now I am sleepy. Goodnight <3

Mikey fucking WAY and Steven Smith are going to be JUDGING A KARAOKE COMPETITION at ANGELS & KINGS.

SERIOUSLY? Like, this is not some cruel prank? Oh, God. Why am I not twenty-one? There has better be some seriously awesome pictures coming out this. :D

[rorylareina.livejournal.com]

Oh my gosh, Ryan Ross. He should be a happy dork all the time.

[wordsalone.livejournal.com]

THAT INTERVIEW IS FANTASTIC IN EVERY WAY. I love Steven Smith so much and seeing him with my boys just about killed me. I love that he joked around with them so much and seemed genuinely happy they were there. I also really loved his interview with Serj Tankian in the same episode. This is why FUSE is the shit.

A&K on Monday?!?!? Not like I can go but still....that would be so cool.

[thefirstpromise.livejournal.com]

HOLY SHIT THAT INTERVIEW. I actually just laughed so hard I snorted. Also, I made some pretty strange noises.

Wow, Ryan Ross, continue whatever it is you've been doing lately, because god damn, that's amazing. (Oh god when he licks his lips. That done so many things to me)

I'm pretty much incoherent. And I have a one track mind, apparently.

[thefirstpromise.livejournal.com]

Oh and YES x1000000 to Gerard and Ryan having a conversation (preferably in public, preferably with a camera around). I've been waiting for that for months and months and the universe has failed me so far. One day. One day it will happen.

[candidlily.livejournal.com]

Team Other! :D \o/

OMG, that is the single best interview I have ever seen. Ryan Ross / Frodo Baggins, holy freaking crap. Paper covers rock! LOL! This interview is so CUTE! *favorites*!

[harriet-vane.livejournal.com]

How freaking ADORABLE is that interview? Jeez, Ryan, way to unexpectedly be HILARIOUS.

I would totally have asked him about his scarf, too.

[rain-dances.livejournal.com]

HAHAHAH MIKEYWAY. I can't wait.

And yay, you didn't cut me! ♥ I would have been super sad. *clings*

[lovinthekink.livejournal.com]

Hey, you don't know me but I just wanted to say thanks :) I found my way to your journal through a link to your "McShep Ficlist of Doom" (which is the best rec list ever, by the way), read your entries, and really like your writing style. And if I hadn't read your journal, I never would have known My Chemical Romance existed (I'm old and stuck in the late 80's/early 90's music) or learned of the awesomeness that is Gerard/Frank and all the boys. So, congrats on trimming your flist to manageable levels, and thanks a million for all the bandom and Dublin posts - reading your journal brightens my day.

(Just a note from one of those people who friended you because I like what you have to say. :))

[musical-emjay.livejournal.com]

UGH. How is Steven Smith so consistently AWESOME? Can he do all bandom interviews forever and ever until the end of time? AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON YOU, WEE PANIC CHILDREN. ♥________________♥

There had better be some fucking photos or videos from this karaoke shenanigating, or I will CUT SOMEONE. (plsplsplsmikeyandpeteinaphototogetheromggggggg)

Also, YOU KEPT ME YAY! You can't get rid of me that easily, ok. *shackles wrists together*

[lokte.livejournal.com]

Ooh, fab clip but what were they whispering???? Jon looks so embarrassed when he thought they had been busted!! Ryan's hair looks all lovely and shiny.

When I started out on this bandom kick towards the end of last year I was like "mcr are ace but the others, meh". Then this slipped into "ok fob are ace too but I really, really am not interested in patd". Now I am well on the way to being sucked into their sphere too, they are so adorable, how can I resist. Not as bad thing as this is the one bandom band that I have a chance to see live in the forseeable future :)

[shibbyfangirl.livejournal.com]

Just to make sure, I can still read your journal even if you don't have me listed as a friend? (sorry if this sounds weird @_@)

[flamingkitten.livejournal.com]

:)

[redbrickrose.livejournal.com]

How much would I love new Pete/Mikey pictures? I . . . I don't even have words for how much I would love that, okay? *flails*

[torakowalski.livejournal.com]

...Mikey fucking WAY are going to be JUDGING A KARAOKE COMPETITION at ANGELS & KINGS

Okay, wow, it's a little ridiculous just *how* happy this makes me, right?

Also? am I the only person in the world who doesn't know who Steven Smith is? *fails*

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Steven Smith is only the best thing that ever happened to bandom! HE is the best interviewer EVER, all sweet and adorable and articulate and he just CHATS with the boys. I LOVE HIM. harriet_vane was also woefully unaware of the AWESOME that is Steven, so I helped in her education a bit here. Go! Watch! FALL IN LOVE!

And it is not ridiculous at all. MIKEYWAY. ANGELS & KINGS. AMAZING.

[torakowalski.livejournal.com]

Alas, I am not authorized to view this protected entry! Hehe, never mind, I will trundle off into the depths of the Internet and see what I can find out about him :)

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Wow, lame! Way to go Anne :P Here, I'll repost the videos I linked for her!

Gerard teaches Steven to do his makeup:


Gerard and Steven chatting at Proj Rev:

Adam Lazarra's cameo is adorable and awesome. And ugh I just love Steven SO MUCH. <3333 They're such adorable little geeky besties.

Steven hanging out with my OH TEE THREEEEE. Ugh I love them ALL. Warped 05. Plz note Frank is wearing the Asymmetrical Zip Up of JOY!


Less about Steven, but Frankie says that Gerard sleeps naked with him! <333


So. Um. THAT'S STEVEN! And we all love him madly. Hearts forever :D Be sure to troll around the related videos, because there's so much goodness out there. I'm sure he's interviewed other bands too, but he's so CUTE with MCR, seriously.

[daybreak25.livejournal.com]

STEVEN SMITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTH. GOD I FIND YOU JUST AS, IF NOT MORE, ADORABLE AS MY FAVORITE BOYS. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?

God, the first thing I thought about MikeyWAY judging a karaoke contest was, "And this is the guy who can't hold a tune? What?"

[pau494.livejournal.com]

GERARD PUT A CROWN ON MIKEY'S HEAD. SOMEONE THREW A CROWN ONSTAGE AND MIKEY WAY WORE IT FOR 'HELENA'. MY LIFE. IT HAS BEEN MADE.

I seriously heart Steven! The high-fives! THE LOVE. That interview was awesome.

Good job on the cut, bb. *thumbs up* Now I'll get more Anne all to myself. *clings*

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

EEEEEE THAT IS SOOOO ADORABLE! WAYS!! *DRAWS SPARKLY HEARTS AROUND THEM*

Did you get pictures?? I heard that Frankie wasn't there, oh noes!! It's like he's avoiding us! :( BUT YAY IM SO GLAD YOU GOT TO SEE THEM THEY ARE LIFE CHANGING. *twirls you*

[pau494.livejournal.com]

I got... maybe one good picture of Mikey, very atmospheric! And some videos! We'll see if they're good...

Frankie wasn't there. :( Gerard said they were thinking of him, I hope there was nothing wrong, the poor thing. I wanted a FRAAANK.

IT WAS INCREDIBLE. THERE ARE STARS IN MY EYES. I AM STILL SHOCKED. *twirls you*

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

MIIIKEYYYY :D What were they wearing?? I know in Sao Paolo Frank wore a tshirt that said Mikeyway! And Mikey wore a fan-made tshirt with Gerard drawn on it! And Ray wore the Umbrella Academy tshirt! What sartorial wonders did they come up with this time? :D

Aw, Frank! I hope it's not another family emergency. Maybe he's sick. But Frank tends to play even though the plague! Frankie :( I'm sorry you missed out on him too, love. Sigh!

YOU WILL BE ON A HIGH FOR MONTHS, I PROMISE :D:D:D

[pau494.livejournal.com]

Ugh, that is so CUTE. I didn't know they did that! Ray was wearing a band's t-shirt and jeans. Here's what Mikey looked like. He looked AMAZING and he jumped around and skipped on stage and he MADE MY LIFE. Gerard was wearing jeans, a black tee and a jean jacket and he had like a red bandana tied around his neck. He looked INCREDIBLE. I didn't see much of Bob except he was wearing black and his hair was REALLY LONG and he was basically awesome.

Apparently he didn't play because his grandmother died :((( He left the tour once because she was sick, right? Was that when you went to see them? POOR FRANKIE.

STILL HIGH. WON'T COME DOWN FOR MONTHS, YAY.

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Eeeeee MIKEY! He's wearing the Darth Vader jacket he wore for my show! GLEE! :D And Gee's outfit sounds similar too! Heee. Booooys.

But... wait. Frank didn't play at MY show because his grandmother died. He flew back to the states and missed like 3 shows in the UK. So... why would that be the reason again? Maybe the funeral? I'm confused.

And yeah, he missed some shows in New Zealand and Australia because he was sick last year. Many times he's been sick he's just played through ti though - have you seen the picture of him on stage with an oxygen mask??? Christ, Frankie. I love him.

[pau494.livejournal.com]

He looked PRECIOUS. They all did!

Maybe his other grandmother died? I don't really know. I went through some sites from girls who'd been to the show and one talked to their security guard. She said he told them about Frankie's grandmother, but Gerard didn't specify. He just said they were all thinking of Frankie, so it can't have been anything good. :(

I HAVE NOT SEEN THAT PICTURE. Oh god, Frank! I love him so much.

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

Oh wow, that would be really awful! Poor Frankie! I'm thinking more likely it's the same one, just something came up related to that. It's understandable, it must be such a rough time for him and his family :(

[pau494.livejournal.com]

FRAAANK. Poor little thing, he's been going through so much lately! It sucks, he doesn't deserve it. I really hope it's the same one, and not another death in his family. :(

KEYSMASH. Like. WHAT. People need to get on that with cameras when it happens. It will have to be on the internet.

PLZ MORE INTERACTION PLZ?
Ryan being a fangirl FOR SRS gives me the giggles and the melty-heart. On the list: Pete. Tom Waits. Gerard Way. The Beatles.
