In case of heartbreak, blanketfort.
So? Who's going to keep me company in the blanketfort while I come to terms with my favourite band splitting in two?
I've never been so invested in a fandom and this feels awful.
I don't care about having two Christmas and two parties. I liked my one Christmas party.
I know that it's better this way, them going their ways now instead of trying to make it work and everyone being unhappy, but it still hurts.
I'm sure in a couple of days I'll be able to look at this and think "Hey. You know what. Maybe it's cool. It hurts, but there's still something to look forward to. Jon and Ryan will go do whatever they want to do and so will do Brendon and Spencer. We get two bands instead of no band at all. Brendon will be able to make up all the showtunes-y songs he wants and Spencer will be able to be the dork he is and Jon will continue to braid his hair and Ryan (hopefully) will learn how to sing."
Reading that kind of makes me feel better already. Maybe if I repeat it like a mantra the pain will ease faster.
These certainly helps
as do you, flist. *hugs you tight and shares the pillows*

Panic is (/was? This is so confusing...) one of my absolute favourite bands, and one of the first bands that I got into and found out about without the help of my friends, which makes it somehow even more important to me.
This makes me sad and hurt, but I don't know, I hope that the guys will be happy pursuing their separate projects or something.
I'm curious to know what plans Brendon and Spencer have for the band. Maybe they'll get Ian Crawford as a second guitarist! Or maybe not, but at least it's a happy thought.
In other words, I'm joining you in your blanketfort and bringing cookies, because cookies make everything better!

Panic is one of those bands that none of my friends listen to so I'm kind of alone in my bawling right now. I'm so very grateful for my flist right now.
The fact that this way all of them will be happy makes it a bit better, and I am curious about their future projects. It might sound stupid, but seeing how they'll fare on their own it's kind of interesting to me. Like, when Blink split up and then Mark and Travis founded +44 and Tom put up A&A it was interesting to see what each of them did for Blink and how they supplied to the imputs the others had provided for the band.
I'm not at that point yet, and I don't think I'll ever be happy about it, but I know that in a couple of days I'll be able to let the sadness go and be happy that they decided to still make music, maybe different, certainly new, and share it with us fans. The glass it's not half empty: it's full of water and air, and both are good for you. *is hopeful*
Cookies are the best! *shuffles over and passes you a fluffy pillow*

My BFF and another friend occasionally listen to Panic, but I'm kind of alone in my mourning right now, too. Bandom is definitely good for support in this situation.
The future sure seems to be going in an interesting direction.
This is really sad and I wish it would not have happened, but I'm trying to think of things that would make it hurt less. The thought of new music and possible new band boys doesn't make it better yet, but maybe next week or later. The glass is still half full of band boys and the rest of them are out there but just in a different form... Um? I have to admit I have no idea where I was going with that. I totally butchered that metaphor, didn't I?
They're even homemade! *Takes the pillow and hands over the cookie jar*

You didn't butchered it at all! I know what you mean :)
I read this post (http://community.livejournal.com/chasingdays/32466.html) yesterday and it helped looking at thing a bit more optimistically.
Homede cookies! *grabs the jar and offers a can of soda*
