Soooo a couple nights ago I saw Empires, as I mentioned, and they were OFFENSIVELY precious. Seriously, flist, flist, seriously. I defy you to see them live and stay neutral. They're still one of my least favorite bandom bands musically (I'm sorry, I know, I'm sorry. I don't like Muse either! Or Radiohead) but their precious fucking faces dear GOD. *_____* They're also really competent with their instruments and really sweet and really really earnest.
Me: I WAS PLAYING PATTYCAKE WITH SOMEONE AND SEAN POPPED OVER HIS SHOULDER AND FLAILED HIS HANDS IN THE MIDDLE LIKE A BIG DORK
loveyouallwrong: oh my goddd
Me: THEY GAVE US SPEECHES ABOUT HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO SHARE MUSIC WITH FRIENDS! THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS "YOUR BAND"!
Me: THEY ARE GIVING THEIR CD PROFITS TO CHARITY. THEY HUNG OUT WITH FANS AFTER THE SHOW FOR THREE HOURS.
Me: LEA.
Lea: STOP IT IMMEDIATELY, I HAVE NO ROOM FOR THEM IN MY WIFING SCHEDULE
Lea: do you know how upset i was when i saw some random picture and identified max?
Lea: WTF WHEN DID I LEARN THEIR NAMES
Me: HAHAHAHAHA
Me: WE WERE ALL HANGING OUT AND SOMEONE JOKED ABOUT NOT KNOWING MAX'S IM NAME AND HE WAS SHOCKED. "IT'S [NAME]!!" WE WERE LIKE, BB, HOW DO YOU KNOW WE WON'T STALK YOU?
Me: HE WAS SO CONFUSED BY THIS CONCEPT
Me: LOLDORABLE
Lea: oh my goddddd shut uppppp. that is adorable : (((((
Me: okay and we were talking to tom about me losing my ID and he was like omg get a fake
Me: and then he told us a story about trying to get into a bar in new york and they turned him down because he's not 5'9", he's like an inch off, maybe?
Me: and he was like 'OMG GET YOUR MANAGER . I AM SO PISSED. GET YOUR MANAGER."
Me: &FAILBOT;
Lea: oh my goddd. thomas wtf, stop being likable : (
Me: he was seriously insanely sweet
Me: HAHAHA P.S. GUESS WHO ELSE IS SWEET
Me: YOU WILL HATE ME
Lea: nooooo who
Me: HEYCHRIS
Lea: hahahahah I ALWAYS KIND OF LIKED HIM!
Me: AHAHAHAHAH I DIDN'T
Me: and then he is this awesome public speaker and really sincere and told us all about his grandfather and little brother dying
Lea: awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Me: it was frustratingly charming
WHATEVER, I GUESS I'M AN EMPIRESWIFE NOW. AND A HEYCHRISWIFE. SHUT THE FUCK UP, I HATE EVERYBODY. After the show we hung out forever and went and had dinner at Earwax and came back and had a Don't Stop Believing sing-a-long which Ryan J approved of while Sean Van Vleet hid his face. Ileana and I were talking and we want to actually date SVV, no, REALLY. For serious. IRL. I will fight scene girls for his hand. The thing about Sean is that in pictures he looks kind of ordinary but in real life he spends the whole show looking like he's in the process of having really amazing sex, and then the whole after-show-period looking post-coital. It is. Um. Wow.
Anyway today I watched a mosquito getting doubleteamed by a tiger and a sheep. How are you, internets?

...It is my dearest hope that I'll get to see Empires play BEFORE they get super-famous and it's impossible to talk to them anymore. Ahahah I don't know. They're really truly the first band I've ever liked that didn't already have a fanbase too gigantic to be able to HANG OUT WITH THEM FOR THREE HOURS WHAT THE HELL.
