In short

[turps]

Funnily enough, I was listening to live in Mexico TBP album yesterday and today and remembering just how much I love that band and their music.

I know this new info will probably be leading up to a reissue of TBP or something but still. Surely I can hope for some new group promo/appearances?

Other than that nothing much is going on. It's hot, I went swimming this morning, walked in the park this afternoon. Things with nanna are looking up and steps are already in the process to help her, so yeah, a good result there.

Mr Robot is on here tonight. I hope it's as good as everyone said.

I really want some new group pictures, people. Like, a lot.

I just saw that teaser. I am hoping it is more too, much to my surprise. :-)

[turps]

It's weird how it hits you.

I've never stopped enjoying them and their music, but it wasn't number one in my fannish interest any more, and then suddenly this.

I was just saying on LJ, they certainly haven't forgotten how to tease and create interest. It's reminding me a little of those first DD teases. If twitter accounts and weird broadcasts start to appear someone may have to revive me *g*

[sperrywink]

So weird, yes!! Same here. I listen to FOB more than MCR, but I have listened o their albums in the last 2 months, even.

It is too bad that a 10 year anniversary release of TBP makes so much sense. :-)

OMG, yes! MCR is right up there in social media savvy-ness.

[turps]

I've just looked at my lj flist and the top four posts are all about MCR. I mean, what?!

I'm sure it will be the ten year release, the timing does make perfect sense, the logo too. But still, it's awesome to imagine possibilities. Also, TBP is ten soon. That's insane!

Ray's song and Mikey performing and now this. Excuse me a moment while I beam and do this \o/

They're masters of social media. And I'm sure the Kerrang people will now be frantically be clearing space in the next issue to showcase this news *g*

It is crazy how time flies! I just missed TBP stadium shows, but I went to some of their club shows in 2007? 2008? So this is almost my 10 year Bandom anniversary too. CRAZY!!!


Yeah, I haven't watched Mikey's performances yet, too headache-y, but I am hoping for a small club tour or something. I love the EC album.

Ahahaha, Kerrang. Gotta love 'em.

[turps]

It is crazy. I would have loved to see them at a club show. I loved seeing them live when I did, but I bet the smaller ones were fantastic.

A small tour would be amazing, hopefully they're leading up to that. I think you'll enjoy seeing his performance when you can. He's very Mikey, and I especially loved his signature one hand pumping the air move.

Karrang are going to love them to the bitter end. That's a sure thing.

The husband and I thought a lot about what the X might mean. I felt bad for a lot of people who assumed a reunion?

I'm glad they clarified today and didn't make people wait 2 months in some kind of promotional crap.

I am excited for a reissue tho, merch will be fun to buy agian.

[turps]

I felt bad for them too, but I can't blame anyone for hoping for that. I'd love a reunion, too, but sadly I doubt it'll ever happen.

But you're right, it's good they did clarify. Better that disappointment now than months down the line.

Oh man, I know! New merch is going to be fantastic. I'm looking forward to whatever appears.

NGL, I looked at the whole teaser thing from a sort of detached perspective. Otherwise, I think I'd fallen into a ZOMG, REUNION! spiral like some ppl surely did.

Have yet to finish watching S1 of Mr. Robot (though I intend to over the weekend), but I'm 100% into it. I've heard a rumbling or two that S2 hasn't been as fantastic as the first one, but I don't care! As long as I get to stare at the weirdly cuteness that is Rami Malek, I don't mind. ;)

That was a good way to approach things. Better to avoid too much disappointment, really.

I haven't even started season one Mr Robot yet, but the eps are nicely recording away on the DVR. But I have to agree about the cuteness of Rami Malek.

[glitteryv]

TBH, what kept me from going into "THEY'RE REUNITING!" train of thought was knowing that their individual schedules are packed with their separate projects. Therefore, it made 0 sense that they would plan to do a tour or anything like that.

Had they been idle, however, you bet I'd have gotten @__@ about MCRX.

I understand why some people handwaved all that. From what we know the breakup was amicable (case in point: they're still in touch with/friendly with each other in social media and elsewhere). #Alsoweallbelieveinthem #Thatswhywerefans

It's too hot for me to be enthusiastic about anything right now so I'm kind of glad it wasn't anything more exciting than reissuing The Black Parade.

Though I definitely wouldn't say no to new group pictures!

[turps]

Are you getting the horrible heat, too?

I'm coping fine until I have to do anything like move, or do something that requires actual effort.

That would be awesome!

[turlough]

I am!! Luckily the nights have still been cool so far so except for a bit in the late afternoon/evening it doesn't get too unbearably hot indoors. But yeah, doing anything that requires effort or even moving at all is totally awful.
