Excuse me, while I fangirl out a bit

Jul 08, 2009 23:25

Hey all!
You may be wondering where I've been of late. As many of you know, Jade was recently here visiting for about a week. This certainly does not excuse the three weeks I've gone without a post. It was, however, really, really awesome. Activities included: beaching, dune rides, firework viewing, going on walks, shopping, making fun of teen bands ( Read more... )

The obvious winner is Steve, but since he's out of the picture.... yatorade July 12 2009, 18:05:01 UTC

... I'm going to go with Ed.
Ed Robertson:
-Is the reason there is a BNL, he even kind of created it before Steve was in.
-As dreamy as playing the accordion can make a man, there is just something about banjo players.
-In general, I prefer his writing style. The laidback-ness and the humour are just the kind thing I look for in music.
-Since he started getting gray hair, he's been looking remarkably pretty. (Ha, it's fun to be shallow from time to time ;D)

Ha, there's my brief summary :) I wouldn't say I necessarily have a crush on Ed (he was long the "rival" of my BNL crush, Steven), but he certainly is the backbone of the band now.

Ha, "Ed's surburban ruggedness, or Kevin's frail, effeminent beauty?" is one of the greatest things I've heard today :)

I'm very excited of the concept of you liking the members of the band. I find being interested in the group just makes a band that much better.

Also, I can't remember if you were around LJ when I posted these pictures, Ed's too awesome in them. And Steve proves that facial hair can indeed be ugly and probably a sign of a midlife crisis waiting to happen.

Nope, I haven't seen those before! Those pictures are amazing! And, I just recognized that that was Steve in your avatar, the beard really threw me off. But man, Steve reminds me of why I usually am so anti-facial hair, he looks worse with a beard than JL. 0_o It really does nothing for him.

Ed with the lollipop on the cover is the best, he's pretty dorbo. :D I also literally lol'd at the one with Jim with the brocolli. Haha, his thumbs-up is so profile pic-esque.

Ha, Steve so blew his chance. ;p musicnscience July 17 2009, 05:22:36 UTC

Touche, I give you that he's more important in the band, hands down. But does this contribute to making him -better-? Actually, the fact that he practically created my 2nd favourite band is huge, and if it wasn't for him I prolly wouldn't have heard of Kevin ( ... )
