Any Darren Hayes fans?

[erilyn]

A Big Night In With Darren Hayes at the Concert Hall, Sydney Opera House (4th July). Priority offer closes midnight, 4 May, unless sold out prior. Huh, only $80+bf, that's damn reasonable for this kind of thing.

Also, for future reference - dear self, there are only 30 days in April. Not much bought queuing stuff up to download after midnight on the 30th to use up end of month downloads *headdesk*. Well that's used a chunk of our newly-decreased downloads, d'oh.

Brian's album cover and liner notes - I wonder if there's a kerfuffle yet over him not specifically mentioning the Boys? Oh wait, it's fandom, there must be *g*.

Belated edited to add: new icon! Because...oh Brian.

I'm dying to go, but alas, won't get paid until Friday. Here's hoping there's still tickets. *fingers crossed*

The hell? When did I get signed out? *pokes livejournal* Above comment, obviously, from me. *headdesk* Sorry.

[raynedanser.livejournal.com]

*pets* It did that to me the other night, too.

[fickwalker.livejournal.com]

Mean livejournal. *pokes it*

And much, much icon love. *smiles, stares*

[raynedanser.livejournal.com]

Bad bad LJ.

*sigh* Prison Break.

Tonight!

*twirls*

mmmm

*stares at your pretty Wentworth icons*

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Stupid lj. Hope you can get tickets!

The Darren Hayes is not for me, but why couldn't the Boys have done an event like that? Damn you and your lies, Howie!

re: Brian, no kerfuffling here, but I'm very surprised to hear that he didn't.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Maybe the saying should "lies like Howie!" Or perhaps "believes everything they read on the interwebs like Howie"?

Yeah, I'm not that into Hayes, but I couldn't help thinking of wistfully of what might have been. Though really, putting aside getting to go to that, I'll settle for any dvd of any of their last four tours, forget a special one-off *g*.

[raynedanser.livejournal.com]

The jacket is wonderful. No kerfluffle from me.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

But could we say 'no kerfuffle' if I ventured to LD? I suspect not, but prefer to remain ignorant for now *g*.

[raynedanser.livejournal.com]

Oh GOD. I wouldn't even want to head over there. (actually, I don't- and this is why. They scare me. *g*)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I looked. They are dumb. But I made a new Brian icon so I am happy!

And full of chocolate. When I should be sleeping. This is both a GOOD and baaaad thing.

[raynedanser.livejournal.com]

You're much more brave than I am. ;-)

The icon is FABULOUS! I want to do something, but the icon bunnies are not smiling down on me this morning. *sighs* I shall shortly, I am sure.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Oh my god, it's turned into "why the Boys suck for not supporting Nick's solo album and why Nick and Brian hatehatehate each other these days not like when they were Frick'n'Frack", part the millionth.

Oh wait, that's pretty much what I was expecting.

I was just playing with this icon, and I wasn't quite feeling it, and was really stuck for text. I was thinking something about life and complete and home, and went and looked at the Welcome Home lyrics, and it just clicked for me.

[raynedanser.livejournal.com]

*rolls eyes*

And THAT is precisely why I don't go there. For crying out loud.

If you don't mind me asking... WTF? Are fans behaving like that with Brian's album or something? I'm kinda lost because I wasn't in on the music from like 2001 - 2004 so I missed a lot of stuff. What's happening?

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

It all started with people arguing about whether Brian not explicitly mentioning the Boys in the liner notes was a shitty thing to do or not (there are a bunch of people declaring they won't buy the album now). It then turned into a re-hash of a bunch of different arguments, about whether the Boys screwed Nick over with his solo album or vice versa (there were a lot of problems between them all around that time), whether the Boys are supporting Brian, and why Nick and Brian aren't as close as they were in 1997 (um, perhaps because people's lives change as they grow up? But no, it has to be because they hate each other).

[runzu.livejournal.com]

WTF is up with the fandom? Jeeze, chill the fu out.

Everyone has disagreements, the boys aren't perfect. Friends don't always get along. Plus, maybe he didn't mention them because that goes without saying. :) Did no one think that?

People are overreacting and talking out their asses as usual. *eye roll*

[runzu.livejournal.com]

BTW - I went to walmart with my mom today and begged her to get Brian's album. She almost did but winded up getting other stuff. ;___; But she said next time we'd get it. :D

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I haven't ordered it yet - I'm waiting to see if it'll get released around here first.

[nannerz2cool.livejournal.com]

Oh, the kerfluffle at LD is so deep, I couldn't wade through it if I wanted to... I won't lie, I was a little disappointed that Brian didn't thank them, but that's only because I love their Public Displays of Affection. :)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Oh, it'd have been nice if he had, but I'm not going to not buy the album over it (as so many are vowing *g*).

[boomingvoice.livejournal.com]

I was GOING to be all "Actually I haven't heard a peep out of anyone!" and then I read the comments and would you believe I had completely forgotten the EXISTANCE of LD? Man, I was happy for a bit.

Lovely icon. :D

[evlarin.livejournal.com]

...I'd forgotten the existence of LD, too. Let's see if I can successfully repeat the process. And forget about the existence of ohnotheydidn't, while I'm at it. And I'm thinking about trying to forget that comments are allowed on posts in backstreetboys. -.-
*finds lye, scrubs brain*
^.^

And you two! Stop with the smexy Brian icons! I just realized I have no idea if/when I'll be able to get his album. T_T

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I haven't made arrangements to buy it yet either, I'm waiting to see if it'll get released in Australia so I can support him here.

[boomingvoice.livejournal.com]

fans are embarrassing, sometimes. :\

And, er, you saying that made me realize--uh, well, will I be able to get this at my local target? Because if not, then oh dear.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Only people with great taste have icons like this, yes.

Sorry to remind you - but if I have to visit it, the rest of you will be reminded of it! ;p

And by have to, I mean, I can't help myself. I have cut back lately though.

[boomingvoice.livejournal.com]

tru dat, tru dat. I suspect there's going to be a lot of people around with great taste, then. :D

But oh, nevermind LD, I actually went stupid and read the comments at ONTD, which was plenty bad enough, even with them lacking the ability to pull up group dynamics from nearly a decade ago.

I just want to bury my head in the sand. Or maybe rant. I can't decide.

[sproke-ina-can.livejournal.com]

I wanna come see Darryen!! I only got to see Savage Garden once when I was 17. Must go see them again.

I was a little dissapointed that Brian didn't thank the boys, but perhaps he counts them under his family?

[sproke-ina-can.livejournal.com]

That was an odd heading. I have no idea why it says that! Crazy stuff.

[sproke-ina-can.livejournal.com]

And now it's gone! What's up with that?? The heading sais "Comment posted sucessfully" and then it's there, and then it's not, and now I look like a dork (what's new)!!

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

That's what I assumed (about them being family). And don't worry about it, lj likes to screw with us at times *g*.
