My pics from the Honda Civic Tour 4-10-08

So, the post-concert (and post-missing the meet & greet) blues are easing up a bit, and I decided to post my pictures. I kinda stopped looking at all the pics other people are posting, but I still suspect these are pretty typical. I did go through and remove most of the blurry ones, but there are still a few that I thought were worth posting despite not being perfectly in focus. There are a few pics of Phantom Planet, The Hush Sound and Motion City Soundtrack as well, but it's mostly Panic At The Disco. And although I really made an effort to get pics of all the Panic guys, the majority of them are of Brendon. You just can't take your eyes off that boy. He's got some unexplainable magnetic thing going on. Seriously.

I looked through the few video clips I did that night again, and I won't be posting any of those. They're all short little clips - no full songs at all - and none are all that great. Maybe I'll do better at the DC show. Although it's not that my camera wasn't capable of it - it's that my arms weren't. Ugh.

I sort of have little stories to tell about the show last Thursday, but... I don't feel like typing them all out. So let me just say that Eric Ronick is awesome - and TALL. And Shane Valdés (or Valdez, take your pick) is so much hotter in person. No picture I've seen of him does him justice. And he's super nice. And no - I did not ask him about being roomies with Brendon or whether or not that shower pic really is of him and Brendon or anything. Which may have been part of the reason he was so nice and so willing to talk about everything from "The Making of Pretty. Odd." DVD (which he edited in only 3 days) to the fact that he's doing the whole tour with the band (lucky bastard).

Hopefully I'll get another chance to talk to Shane and actually get Eric's autograph on my Black Gold CD and get another chance at a meet & greet with Panic - the latter being something I'm currently fighting with Artist Arena about.

Oh! You can find my scans of the tour booklet here.

So, I'm off to the Washington DC area on Saturday, and will be out there until May 24th. For those who might be wondering, my brother and his family live near DC and I made plans some time ago to go visit them this summer. They just had a new baby about a month ago, and I can't wait to see the little guy. It just worked out well that Panic is doing their DC show while I'm out there. I'm also meeting llvoncan in NYC to see the closing night show of "Antony & Cleopatra" with Randy Harrison. And we're staying really close to the Angels & Kings bar, so I'm hoping to stop by there for a drink and a photo or something (celiarosalind - want to come with me?)... but I'll only be in NYC for about 30 hours, so we'll see. If any of my other east coast friends want to try and meet up while I'm out there, let me know.

Guess that's it for now.

cool.
idk how the m&g works but.. do you know if you're having it ?

I'm *not* on the list for it as of right now. But I'm pestering Artist Arena to do something for me and others who missed the M&G in San Francisco, and I told them I already had tickets to the DC show. No idea if they'll get me added to the list for DC or try to make it up to me some other way. Should find out within a week or so.

oh, ok.
so i dont really know how it woks but aparently they're really strict on m&g but if you DO meet the band, would it be possible for you to do something for me ?
just a little sign.. like writting on a piece of paper "Hi Inês" (Inês = my name btw lol) and then ask Brendon or any of them to hold it and take a picture ? that's all i ask for.. i mean, i only ask you for at least trying to do this..
they've never been to Portugal and dont plan on coming and probably never will come so.. if you get the chance, pleaseeeee ? ^^
of course that if they only take a picture it's with you obviously but still, even if zack says that it's one picture only.. ask one of the guys for just one more holding the sign and they wont refuse it. aha
if you're not willing to help its just as good..
thanks in advanced.

You asked me all that before. Don't you remember? Like I said before, I can't make any promises, and I *really* don't think there will be time, but if there is time, I'll try. But I don't even know yet if I'll get into the M&G. ::shrug::
