So.
I petitioned the court for custody of Layla this morning. Now I just have to wait to be served for the court date. I'd love to be a fly on the wall when HE gets served. He isn't even going to see it coming.
But anyway.
I realize that I haven't made a real post about Warped Tour, and with things going the way they are, I don't know when I'll be able to. But I'll just link you all to symmetry's (WTF LJ? Why you fuckin' with me?) post when she makes hers. She got all the best pictures anway because...you know -SHE WAS THERE WITH US!!! \m/
But I will say this. Yes, I saw Gym Class Heroes perform and stood only 10 to 15 feet away from Travis McCoy. He is so much more amazing in person. Just everything about him. He's just....asjfljdsfljsd. So amazing. I met Disashi and took a pic with him. He is the sweetest guy ever. He saw the Cobra Cane and said it was 'sweet.' He is now rivaling Travie for my Gym Class love. XD When we got to their merch tent I was like "DISASHI!" and he thanked me for saying his name right.
Yes, I met Gabe Saporta and we gave him the Cobra Cane. Which was amazing in itself because we managed to get his attention from the barrier before he was supposed to go on and he actually came down and got it. He said it was 'so cool' and he was going to take it onstage with him. He gave Layla a hug and then proceeded to go sign some autographs so it seemed like he didn't come down just for us. He is so nice and GOD I love Gabe. I don't understand why people say he's an asshole because he was nothing but sweet. Even when we watched him during his signing (the line was too long so we didn't stick around) he hugged EVERY SINGLE PERSON he met. ILU GABE. But he didn't end up taking the cane onstage with him. Alex did XD Still, it was awesome. And when Travie came out for Snakes, he picked it up and started waving it around and I'm pretty sure he licked it during the 'tongues so reptilian' part of his rap. Which is funny because Layla and I had been carrying it around all day and I'm sure it was sweaty. But hey, it's almost like he was licking us :D I managed to find a pic and a couple of youtube vids.

Sound is crap but I really do think Travie loved it more than Gabe did XD

Watch them both *giggle*
I feel bad though because I left Cobra's set halfway though to get to the TAI pit.
The Academy Is... was amazing. Youtube videos do not do those boys justice. Especially the new songs. Jack was right. DO NOT trust what you see on Youtube. Seeing William Beckett perform is pretty much the equivilent of an orgasm. Seriously. He's so pretty and so charismatic and just. MY GOD.
But the best part? The very, VERY best part? Meeting him. Standing less than two feet away from him made me freak out. Not to mention he busted me taking pictures of his ass while we were waiting in line. Actually, Tony the tattle-tale tour manager did, and then he told Becks. But Beckett just got this little smirk and turned to us and smiled and waved. But he did give me a "I know what you did there" look. Needless to say when I got to him, he fucked with me. He was asking me where to sign and I just told him anywhere, so then he proceeds to point to various places on the page and be like "here? here? how about here?" It was his pretty much payback in his own adorable way. And yes, he is a gazillion times more adorable in real life. It was the best thirty seconds of my life.
Next in the signing was Butcher. I never really made eye contact with him though because Beckett leaned over and whispered in his ear while pointing to the Sleeping With Giants Tour sticker on the book I made them sign. It was super hot. So by the time I get to Carden I'm still staring at Butcher when he waves at me. I finally look at him and he kind of smirks and waves again, to which I waved back like an idiot. Mike Carden has the most amazing eyes of any man I've ever seen. They're not cute doe eyes like Becketts, but they're these piercing light green eyes that are just...seducing. Pictures and video don't do Carden justice. He is SO MUCH HOTTER in real life.
So I get to Sisky and can I just say that the boy is super adorable? For serious? I know he gets a lot of flack about his ego and whatnot, but he's like, the older brother everyone wishes they had. He loved my SWG sticker too, and he signed my book and put T.A.I under his signature, which he didn't do with Layla's or Jersey's. It made me feel special. He gave me thumbs up and grinned at me. I totally fell in love with him and gave him thumbs up back.
Finally it was Chislett. He signed the book and handed it back to me. I thanked him and he was all 'you're very welcome' in that hotass Austrailian accent. Seriously, his voice makes direct contact to the groin. It was insane.
Layla had the guys sign her sketchbook. It was cute because while Becks was looking through them, Butcher was leaning over his shoulder at the same time, and Carden was trying to see too. Sisky told her she was really talented. So she had a great experience too. And you will soon read about Jersey's.
It was the greatest moment of my life, guys. Seriously. Meeting these guys that I've been crazy over for the past six or seven months was just...indescribable. I also saw Jack the Camera Guy carrying around THE briefcase. I yelled at him and waved. He waved back but didn't stop. He was walking like he was on a mission.
So, I'll shut up now and show you some pics. Sorry if they kill you flist, but I didn't have time to resize or anything, and I'm on the Godmom's laptop so I don't have any of my programs. *le sigh* The price of freedom. Better yet, I'll give you links.

Not too many because I left early to get to TAI's pit, which was growing by the second.

Beck's flashing the stomach. It was hotter in RL. And not as blurry.
