Happy 29th Birthday, Mr Chasez!

[erilyn]

jchalo has done a magnificent post with many many wonderful pictures, and really, there isn't much I could say that she hasn't. Oooh, and digital_diva has a wonderful picture post too, JC through the years.

I have such admiration for JC, for his talent and drive and his loyalty to, and love of, his family and friends. The way he gives everything in every performance. The way he manages to keep parts of his life private while living in the spotlight. For being an enormous dork. For comparing the group to his hand. For making Schizophrenic, which I adore. His love of wearing pink. For the way he can make a group of women melt by just smiling at us and thanking us for coming to Challenge *sigh*.

I hope he has a great birthday, and an even better year ahead. And that we get to hear his new album soon :)


why such a crappy picture when I have hundreds, probably thousands, of better ones? Cause I took this one *g*.

Now, for the traditional random assortment of clips, thrown together at the last minute (cause I didn't remember to prepare something in advance)!

+ Performing Plug It In with Basement Jaxx on Top of the Pops - 19.5 meg, avi
I love all the live performances of Plug It In, this one's the best one quality-wise.
+ JC hosting Selecter - 10 meg, zip of wmvs
Another British thing I think, bunch of clips of JC introducing videos, very cute.
+ Now and Forever - 3 meg, mp3
Cause you probably all have it, but if you don't, you need it.
+ 100 Ways (live), part 1 - 34 meg, avi
+ 100 Ways (live), part 2 - 10 meg, avi
A good bootleg of my favourite song from Schizophrenic.
+ Making the Tour - JC dangling on the wires - 300 K, avi
Adorable snippet from the Making the Tour dvd.
+ Performing It's Gonna Be Me on Rosie - 20 meg, avi
Cause I had to include a group thing, and not only is JC wearing *that* sweater, there's a little bit of tongue action. Plus, watch Chris's face just after the meercat-esque sequence, and also at 1:34, heee.

Please don't direct link to the files, link to my journal on message boards or communities, and please right click and save (or equivalent). I always appreciate comments if you've downloaded :)

Happy Birthday JC! I just got home from work after a long conference and am frantically trying to get together a JC post while its still his birthday in my timezone. If i don't manage it I'm celebrating my birthday cheer here. I downloaded a couple of the files. Thanks Erilyn.

[turlough]

Snagged the group performance footage, thank you!

[masheek2.livejournal.com]

I'm downloading the first and last ones. Thank you!!

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

You're welcome! :)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Thanks, hope you enjoy :)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

While doing this I discovered I had the bootleg files saved twice *g*.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Heh, I thought about putting up because...yes ;)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Best way I know to celebrate is with sparkly prettiness ;)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

It's an odd selection, but hopefully there's some stuff people didn't have :)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

You're very welcome, enjoy all the JC goodness *g*.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Ah, excellent choices, you're welcome :)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

It's a cute performance, and the area seems a little small, they have to perform close together :)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

You're welcome, and you should still post what you planned whenever you get a chance. Delayed celebrating just makes the fun last longer :)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I wish we had a whole show, or at least more really good bootlegs (I've been spoilt by a couple of the BSB bootlegs I've gotten recently *g*).

[schizoop.livejournal.com]

Dwnloaded the clips.:) Thank you, thank you, thank you! Just the perfect way to celebrate this special day.:)
