fading fangirl squee
So, I readilly admit to being a child of my generation and to being a Rabid Squeeing Fangirl (always have been, always will be). However, aparently when my lovelys turn into this... i find that i was wrong, my love DOES know bounds.
Admittedly i had been toying w/ the idea of buying a ticket to the New Kids reunion tour; reliving the love and adoration i had when i was a... much shorter dork. I had planned on going to rekindle something.
However, after the Today Show Concert this morning... i find that the spark is gone. Maybe it was the lack of harmony (though part of me thinks that had more to do with the sound guys trying to drown out The Squee That Swallowed New York), maybe it was the lack of new songs, maybe it was the once-cutting-edge choreography not being so cutting-edge anymore, maybe it was that the Years Have Not Been Kind to a few of them; whatever the reason... i think the Today Show just saved me gas money and concert fare.
In a way it's sad, my third-grade-self is Most Displeased At This Turn of Events; and a lot of my fangirly side is confused. The adult side of me, however, understands that these things happen. And the final, truly morbid, side of me (the last nation heard from, i hope) thinks that maybe it's not so terrible that my First True Love, Darling Jonathan Brandis died young and pretty, making it so that i would never tire of SeaQuest DSV.
So my first bandom... is lost to me. I'm not entirely sure how to feel. But the videos from the Today Show made me LMAO.
