Na na na na, hey hey hey!

Let's talk about those Panic babies. Specifically, the MTVCanada HCT Special (here are the audio rips).

Things I Love About This Video

• Getting clear live recordings of Northern Downpour and Folkin' Around ♥
  
• How much Ryan and Brendon clearly adore each other. Ryan even laughs in the middle of lines he's singing because Brendon is being so adorable.
  
• Finally getting to actually see Brendon play tambourine on his head. Even MORE adorable than I predicted.
  
• Spencer singing the refrain at the end of Northern Downpour
  
• Ryan announcing that Northern Downpour is about rattlesnakes, among other things.
  
• The boys talking about how much playing to people pretty much makes their life. And saying it's the first time they really wake up all day.
  
• Brendon's Words of Wisdom, No. 143: "Nervous tinkles, gotta get those out of the way!" TINKLES YOU GUYS. (And then he calls Ryan sir. And then I die the end.)
  
• Spencer yawning fiercely in the backstage footage.
  
• Seeing people I know at the barrier (hi mcee and wasoncedelight!)
  
• Everything about the mic-sharing at the end of TGG. How it's preceded by lowkey guitar sex, during which Ryan looks very happy, and the fact that the micsharing is initiated by Ryan, and Brendon's deeply fond little glance, and how Ryan clearly tries SO HARD to get the harmony right, pressing his headphone in and everything, but then fails and makes the most adorable poutyface I have ever seen EVER. ♥____♥
  
• The fact that Ryan is talking all the damn time, preciously, and his HAIR is growing out!! He looks like a darling little hobbit! <33333
  
• Ryan getting to sing the "melt your headaches" line by himself.
  
• Spencer's pretty ladylike hair. I think he and Bob are having a competition.
  
• Ryan WAVING TO A GIRL IN THE AUDIENCE.
  
• They're ALL wearing vests. Cutest everrr.
  
• Ryan yelling COME ON in Mad as Rabbits and looking very pleased with himself.
  
• Ryan pretending to rockstar slam his guitar then gently placing it down. While Brendon tosses his to the ground carelessly.
  
• Okay, let's just face it. Ryan, period dot.
  
• NA NA NA NA, NA NA NA NA, HEY HEY HEY, GOODBYYYYYYE!

I STILL haven't seen their stupid faces live. NEED. WANT. Fall tour plz boys?

Okay, let's just face it. Ryan, period dot.

RYAN ROSSY. HOW HAVE YOU DONE THIS TO ME?!?!?

Just...his whole everything. And the band and how amazingly adorable they are. Their faces! The singing! The...BOYS!

Ryan waves a lot! He kept waving at the crowd, who didn't scream, just waved back. I saw him on the street before the show and I just went "..." *wave* and he went "...!" *waves back*

UGH MY HART.

Also he spent the whole show eyefucking the first three rows. The first three rows spent most of the show fiercely avoiding eye contact omg.

That's maaaaaaaybe the most precious thing I've ever heard?

RYAN ROSS ILU A LOT. And your precious hobbit face. Sigh.

Aaahhaha I remember watching that when it was on at, like, midnight - YAY FOR IT BEING SHOWN ON A NON-CABLE CHANNEL - and much flailage took place. :DDD

[pau494.livejournal.com]

I love everything everrrr!!! Because flailing back with everything you've just mentioned would be overkill, right? But, BOOOOOYS. ♥_♥

[walking-paradox.livejournal.com]

YES, YES and YES TO EVERYTHING THERE!

Ryan Rossssssss. His little pouty face was the cutest EVER.

I used to be kind of 'eh' about him, but now all I want to do is coo at him and hug him all the time.

Oh man, I'm keeping the audio of Mad as Rabbits just so I can have the ending, because I flailed SO HARD when I heard it live. BOYS. ♥♥♥♥♥

Ahahaha, OUR FACES. I'm totally like this the whole time: /o\

You know what, though? For being pretty much squarely in front of Brendon (and pretty solidly a Brendon girl), I spent most of the show watching Ryan. He's kind of mesmerizing! And made a LOT of eye contact. And smiiiiiiiiiiled a lot. :D

Also, I totally get the whole Spencer thing now.
