So I didn't think I'd talk about Mr. Brendon-gate, but apparently I am.

Not cutting, because your layouts will be fine tomorrow(1/9/08) morning.

If there are Scene Queens, then there must be Scene Kings to go with them. By this I mean theres a corallary to the girls.

Calling her out in an interview after stalking/splooging over her already famous self is just an interesting little dig to his personality - he unlike William, doesn't acknowledge he can be a prick, or Gabe's nasty guy.

For Pete's, its beyond tacky and into gauche.

Paramore is aparetnly Christian rock, by the band's own admission. A host of bands I love have Xtian roots, but none handle it as ... (oddly? smarmy? distatsefully?) as they do- redemption, turning the other cheek, etc. is a huge part of what Jesus was talking about. he's supposed to have hung out with fishermen, prostitutes and social/pyhsical lepers. He was a radical hippie in the original sense of it.

Thats not what i hear from them at all. D:

But going to something that others like warmingweather have brought up, about artistic subjectivity: music critics rag on bandom b/c they are "derritive of part emo bands" and so fans talk about how art is personal and subjective and then badmouth Jac's photograhpy and the like the next sentnece. Its insane.

probably because most scene kings will be taken seriously once they start a band

Which is part of the main issue.

I'm fine with Jesus. I'm also fine with Buddha and Ra and Zeus and Muhammad and Moses.

But Paramore is ... acidic about it in a way I can't condone.
