(no subject)
Clearly, some god of bandslash loves me and is keeping a close eye on my, because I take a break from the computer to go snack and watch a little TV, and what's on FUSE? The My Chemical Romance Chronicles, and then Pete Wentz on Distortion.
My life rocks, wow.
- "Fall Out bassist, songwriter, music video director, record label owner, fashion designer"... damn. I mean, I knew Pete had his fingers in a lot of pies, but it's still really impressive-sounding when you say it all together.
- Being second to Jay-Z in best introduction of FOB/Pete Wentz is really no small thing, Steven. You should be proud.
- Pete is so teeeeeeny, oh my god.
- Tesla was in love with a pigeon? I love that they just knew that, randomly. And then decided to base a video on it.
- What A Catch, Donnie was Pete trying to write from Patrick's perspective? Huh. That's... something to think about.
- Ooh, viral video to explain What A Catch, Donnie? I could seriously be into that.
- Why would people be freaked out by elements of past videos appearing in the WAC,D video? It's not like they haven't done the exact same thing in some of their other videos.
- Yay, Fall Out Boy won't be breaking up. I hadn't actually been thinking they were going to, but I guess some people were? (I wonder if he's thinking of Panic while talking about this?) And ahaha, Pete totally has a point when he says that even denying it is just going to make people think it more.
- "The world needs a break from Fall Out Boy right now." Oh, Pete Wentz. You do have a very strong personality, but I don't think the world ever needs a break from, say, Patrick Stump. Or Joe Trohman. The world, in fact, needs much more Joe Trohman. But yeah, okay, I get your point about needing inspiration to actually write music, and figuring it's a good time to step back for a moment, what with Blink returning and MCR putting out a new album.
- *snickers* Oh, Pete, wanting to give Mark Hoppus grief because Mark makes fun of him for being short. I feel like this tour is full of an absurd amount of shenanigans, I kind of love it. And Pete is totally a fanboy, god.
- Yay, Pete, using Journey to prove people wrong when they assume FOB is full of whiners wearing eyeliner!
- Steven is entirely correct: all bands should play Journey covers. I WOULD DIG IT.
- Alright, WAC,D music video. Patrick's hat! The stripy shirt! Pete the seagull! Thought: do you think it's weird for Patrick to sing a song supposedly from his perspective, but written by Pete? I mean, it's like... this is what somebody else thinks your life is like. And you're singing it. Wouldn't that be kind of bizarre?
ALSO: Patrick looks really, ridiculously attractive at the end of this video, it's a little insane.
- Wow, Pete sounds exhausted. I'm willing to bet a lot of it comes from being the parent of a small child, as well as all the other stuff he has on his plate. This just adds to the ten million not-even-fics in my head where Pete and Ashlee grumble about getting up in the middle of the night because Bronx is crying. (Seriously, these scenes just appear! In my head! Occasionally with the text messages that Pete then sends out to random friends.)
- Aww, Pete talking about how he really isn't the only reason Gabe and the rest of Cobra Starship are famous. I love how all the dudes on DecayDance are friends and love each other so much. And I mean, no matter what you say about Pete, the dude loves his friends.
- "Gabe Saporta has acted famous for a long time before he was ever famous." TRUFAX.
- "First, who are you? Second, wow." Steven's first reaction to Gabe, many years ago. I feel that should be Gabe's tagline or something, except that people actually know who he is now. Whatever, I still love it.
- PETE WAS ON CSI: NY WHAT. AND NEXT ON DEGRASSI? PETE. PETE. PETE, YOU CAN'T ACT. I SAW YOUR PART ON ONE TREE HILL, OKAY. I LOVE YOU, BUT YOU CAN'T ACT.
- Ahaha, Pete got drunk with Pierce Brosnan on a plane. That's... freaking hysterical, actually. And the way he just says "my wife" so easily, I don't know. It's kind of adorable.
- Ooh, Kings of Leon video. I've developed a recent love of that band.
Fan questions!
- Favorite album recorded by any artist? Man, that's a tough question. I don't envy Pete. And aww, Steven and Pete are in agreement about Metallica!
- The real story behind the name Fall Out Boy? Thank you, Steven: "A question you have never been asked, ever, by anyone, in your entire career." Even I know the answer to that one, jeez.
- Okay, that chick mentioned Lil Wayne and all I can think of is the Brendon/Lil Wayne story, wow. Also, Lil Wayne tells Pete to tell his mom Happy Mother's Day? And other random things? That may or may not be the funniest thing I've ever heard.
- Craziest thing a fan's ever done for Pete? I guess blowjobs don't count as crazy... And a woman trying to set Bronx up with her daughter? Um. Because that's not creepy. (Well, I guess it could be kind of cute? But no, still kind of creepy.)
- Wow, the lead singer of Incubus is a lot prettier than I would have expected.
Oh, okay, it's actually done now. Bye Pete! *waves*
