You know that place between sleep and awake?

That's where inspiration is.
Hook's quote aside, coming up with things for [livejournal.com profile] saba1789's prompt has been hard. I thought that doing the one with Spencer's left foot was challenging. Ah! If a little piece of Spencer made me sweat, I should have known that the whole thing would kill me.
Anyway, I've been toying with this prompt for a week and I finally got inspired this morning while waking up (a process that takes me from 10 to 30 minutes, depending on my hunger).
This time, I tried drawing with music in the background, so each piece is accompanied by the song I listened to while doing the first sketches. That means that today you get art and music!
[livejournal.com profile] saba1789, I hope these come close to what you wanted :)

5 things Spencer always has to has with him while on tour

1. pillow
Coldplay - Yellow (Piano Version)

2. keyring
Waterboy - We Will Rock You

3. concealer
The Boy Least Likely To - Be Gentle With Me

4. notebook
Strangeloves - I Want Candy

5. key
Vitamin String Quartet - Mad as Rabbits

As you might have noticed, the fifth item doesn't have a "note". That's because I wrote one that was so long it would have been a ficlet. The thing is, I don't think that that key needs an explanation: it speaks for itself.


Well, that was the last prompt for the 5 things meme. If you ever want to prompt me again, you can. Just be aware that lectures started again so it'll take me longer to draw them :)

Now, flist? I need your help: should I upgrade to a paid account or not? I'm very tempted... but I don't know if it'd be worth it. Opinions?

It was a thank you for these 5 things so I don't really want you to give me anything more but oooh, I don't think I can resist the offer of you sending me the original drawings! If you really don't mind doing that just gimme your email address and I'll send you my snail mail address :) .

Is it true that one's mind goes blank when confronted with the Smith's Smile of Awesome?

OMG YES THAT IS SO SO TRUE! /o\
Anyway, [livejournal.com profile] valya22 and I went to Zurich in March to see Panic during their short promo tour for the new album that wasn't even released at that time yet.
The venue was pretty small and the concert was super cool and fun and we'd kind of decided beforehand to maybe try and find a backdoor to maybe meet the guys after the concert.
After the concert I was actually a little hesitant to really do that but we nonetheless went around the venue and found what we were pretty sure was their tour bus.
So we decided to wait like 30 minutes and then just go if nothing happened.
40 minutes later (*g*) suddenly Spencer and Ryan where coming towards the bus and although Zack was all 'get on the bus' we still went and asked for a picture and they were super nice and all 'sure! hey, random tech guy come over and take our picture please!' and then they asked how we wanted to do it and I said - OUT LOUD ZOMG - 'I want Spencer please'. /o\ Luckily Spencer looks more amused than crept out in the picture although I'm totally clutching his arm and everything ZOMG!
They even did some small talk after taking the picture! OK, mostly it was Spencer talking. My brain was kind of still offline. *g* But yes, they were so cute and nice! ♥
I have the whole ridiculous report and the pictures here if you want to check it out.

'I want Spencer please'
I think it's kind of cute! You even said "please".
I went to the London date of that promo tour! I felt like a total dork because I dragged a friend who didn't even know Panic all the way to London just to see them and then spent the concert singing along to all the songs (because I'm creepy and I downloaded the live versions of the new songs before leaving and learned the lyrics /o\) and I didn't have the heart to ask her to stay a little bit longer around the venue to try and catch 'em.

Just send you an email :) .

I wanted to go to one of the German dates but I was actually on vacation during all of them - it nearly made me cry because I was afraid I would miss them but then they announced the Zurich date that worked brilliantly for me and Valya. Hee!
Oooh, I totally always have to sing along to everything, too! I didn't really know the new songs back then though.

I didn't have the heart to ask her to stay a little bit longer around the venue to try and catch 'em

Oh, I totally get that. I was very lucky to have a fellow fangirl with me who understood the urge ;) .
