The CoB - Church of Bourdon Thread!

[Pheonix791989]

I wanna get a white writs thingy like he has. lol. hey rav and ozzy. srry about the beard thing. guys, just call me Phi or Melissa whichever you prefer. .

[brokenangel]

melissa is a beautiful name...(i'm a girl, so don't get freaked out ). hey rav..i stared at my screen for like 30 minutes...you're gonna flood the church (if it's not already)... and ozzy...don't worry about it..it'll come . we should make those wristbands, huh phi? than it would be like another 'signature' CoB thing lol

[Black_Angel]

Oooo nice pics Rav! And the forward Matix cap- say it aint so! *puts hand to forehead dramatically*

Ah well, he still rocks!

GO ROB!

 

[Pheonix791989]

yeah he rox hard and still looks hot

[Ravynlee]

Hey guys! Ozzy, Melissa, everyone else of the CoB! *big hugs*

 

Ozzy/Faded_Blue/security, sorry to hear about the beard thing, don't fret, I'm sure given enough time it will happen, not like I'd personally know or anything also being of the female persuasion, but, y'know *shrugs* Here's to the power of positive thinking! *grins* Hope it happens for ya' one day, mate!

 

Uh, Melissa/Phe/2nd in command, the white wrist band 'thingy' is actually part of the whole Live 8 thing, all the performers wore one in a show of unity and support etc, so you'd have to check out their official site or something I'd say if you really want one. Not sure if they're actually retail though, so *shrug* y'might wanna check that out. As for making white wristbands for the CoB? I dunno, call me crazy but if we were to have a colour, I'm not sure white is our thing... *laughs evilly* I mean, think about it. As far as colour symbolism goes, white would be innocence and purity and lets face it, most of the things we dribble (let alone the unspoken thoughts that we elicit, especially when staring for half-hour increments at Rob pics, hey brokenangel? *wink-wink*) in this thread are anything but innocent and pure... quite the opposite really. *Looks around innocently with a devious grin* Having said that, we're not exactly into devil-worship or any real form of evil that connotates the black (only in symbolism, I myself am Wiccan of faith, so I don't actually "believe" in said deity) but then again that IS the colour of his beloved cap (the one Phe's hiding under), and one half of LP's 2 main colours (or 3, technically) and I guess probably the main colour we seem to see him in a lot (although not exclusively) so perhaps...? I don't know. It was hard enough juggling the proposed name change/religious conversion and the 'unofficial' slogan of the CoB let alone deciding on an actual colour *chuckles* Man... talk about obsessive... well, I guess this IS the thread for it, huh... oh well, if it happens...

 

Moving right along *hums Muppet tune of the same name under her breath* since everyone else is sharing first names I'll share mine; Rach. But I prefer Rav, I like to keep my two personas apart where I can (though sometimes the line does blur, ask Jammer! *laughs*) and do all my virtual stuff via Rav. She's far more outspoken than my RL self anyway, so that's probably a good thing Rav's running the show and not Rach or else we'd really be in trouble! The CoB might never have happened at all! *arrgh!* Well, now that it has and now that we're here and up and running and drooling and carrying on like an unruly mob of misfits *puffs chest out proudly* it's probably time to continue on with the next part of my usual post; the pictures! *Looks around for the strategically placed buckets and hovers over one in anticipation*

 

Okay, this first one is a bigg'un, and while I don't think it's visually as 'nice' (for want of a better word) of the official Live 8 pic (and what was the deal with the separate shoot from the rest of the band anyway?!? I'm like, WTF?) I still like this one because you can practically read his thoughts on his face - or spend ages coming up with a witty reparte yourself for the sheer hell of it. Check this out;

This second one is nice, it shows what rock stars can get away with in the world of fashion that many of us would never dream of... fancy a backwards baseball cap and jacket anyway? I mean... *laughs* then again, he's a big guy so saying he looks anything but hot to his face may leave one in an incredible amount of pain *laughs again* But no, our Robbie's not that type of guy. And I've said it over and over, he'd look good in anything (or better yet, nothing *evil grin*) But this is no exception... *drool*

(Source: The Linkin Park Times - I think. Not 100% sure. Sorry.)

 

Okay, that's me done for now. Hope y'all enjoy as per usual. God bless Greg and Patty for bringing such a glorious spectacle into the world *drools more* So, thanks Mr and Mrs B *I can feel a group hug coming on!* Hehehe... Idiot...

 

Was watching RaR04 again today and I have to tell you, I just go weak at the knees at the start during his drum solo for Don't Stay... The best way I can describe Rob's drumming to the untrained ear is "beautifully savage"... *swoons in her seat at the thought* Even the expressions on his face as he belts it all out (what a workout!) conveys it nicely. God damn, it's a good thing I don't know the guy or it's fair to say I'd be up on one or two indecent charges against him, thats for sure (Yeah, like me and half-dozen or so other people in this thread alone!) *looks strangely innocent again* Oops, I'd better go now before I really incriminate myself!

 

Take care peoples! *Big bbB-bb hugs* as always & TTYL,

*Is s******ing indecently as she sneaks out the back door*

[shahfire]

hey rav! tell me or PM me where you saw rar04. i still havent seen it. *wails*

[Ravynlee]

hey rav! tell me or PM me where you saw rar04. i still havent seen it. *wails*

Hey Shah! Long time no see *hugs* Well' date=' I downloaded that from http://www.lptimes.com/ (it's like THE Linkin Park site for everything as far as I'm concerned, my number 1 place for anything LP related, and that even includes their official sites which suck in comparison!) that was a few months back but I'm sure it's still up. My biggest issue with TLPT as a site is that they don't support download accelerator progs and if you're one of the rare few (like me) still running on dial-up then getting clips is a labourious and very painful experience indeed. It took me around 4 days to get (and I mean that quite literally too BTW, from beginning to end, but it's cut up so you only D/L what you want and use Winrar to run it together again if that's what you want. It's what I did). Nearly all the clips are good quality in but huge in file size, so you've been warned. Having said that, I could [i']try[/i] and upload the clip in question, but don't know how my slow-@$$ comp will cope with that. Try over at the site first and if you're still having issues let me know and I'll do my best, okay? You've abso-freeakin-lutely got to see the entire concert though if you can, IMHO it is even better than LIT (general overall) and I've raved on about the reasons why enough, but you be the judge.

Anyways, take care and I'll be back online tomorrow (it's nearly midnite here and I'm sleepy) to upload if you're on then, or at least I'll endeavour to try for you, okay?

TTYL,

 

-Rav

 

(Edit: Shah, this is the direct link to the vids: http://www.lptimes.com/media/vid_liveconcert2004.html but unfortunately at the moment that I type this they are all offline, so no downloads until they come back on, whenever that may be. Will try and upload what I have tomorrow for you and see how we go, okay?)

[brokenangel]

i love LP times...it's amazing. all the rob anyone could ever need *sigh* (well we can always use more )

[Rusu_luvs_LP_4ever]

*cleans up any drool I've missed along the way*

[Ravynlee]

Hey guys, me again!

 

Shah apologies, but I tried several times to upload just that single vid in question today and as I thought my dim-witted computer couldn't handle it - I got about 3.10MB uploaded before the server reset and that took about an hour or two anyway, considering the file size for Don't Stay alone is around 40MB I would have been manually reseting it all day, so... sorry, no go I'm afraid. But I did try. If you are interested I do have the MP3's as well which I could upload for you to give you an idea of what I'm referring to in regards to Rob's awesome (however brief) intro... will endeavour to do that soon.

 

First I've come from LPT, of course, and for those of you who don't yet know and ARE members of LPU, the official site is collecting questions for the upcoming newsletter which will be answered by who other this year but Rob himself as well as Joe and amusingly enough Jay-Z. (Credit source: Jas @ http://www.lptimes.com/) I've been wracking my brain but can't for the life of me think of anything even remotely intelligent to ask (that they haven't probably heard like a million times before already) so I've nothing to contribute. If anyone does have anything to submit to the boys log on to: http://lpunderground.com/ go to the Message Boards - The Underground Forum and post them there. Like I've said it's LPU members only, so don't try it if you're not, you won't get through. They're collecting them soon so hurry, and if you're lucky enough you just might get a response from the stars themselves! *woo-hoo!* (oops, sorry, too much Sims) There's also a cute vid up now featuring the guys prior to going on stage at the Live 8 concert in Phili, where Brad and Rob are playing a unique game called 'reversable hat.' (Middle finger which appears in background courtesy of Mr Hahn) If you haven't seen it check it out... gives you a new insight to what Rock-stars really get up to backstage *laughs* Poor Rob... looks a bit like a store mannequin throughout but still ravishing naturally... anyway...

 

Moving on, just saying a quick "hi" to everyone. Place is still relatively quiet which is unnerving but not all that unfamiliar after what we've done to the Robs Pics thread *laughs again* Anyway *hugs* to the congregation, missin' everyone. Hope y'all are well and so forth and look forward to all catching up again real soon.

 

Anyway, no pic today but here's the audio I promised Shah from Rock am Ring 06/06/04 ... http://rapidshare.de/files/3124946/RaR2004_P4MH_01-Intro_Don_tStay.mp3.html

 

Anyway, take care guys, hope y'all enjoy this, it's bloody awesome, but then so is Brad's intro to 'Numb' from that set and Rob's 'Somewhere I Belong' is worth a mention as well. In fact, do yourself a favour and hunt it down, that concert is well worth a look in, IMHO. Love it, love it, love it. (Even if the cameraman needs a good kick in the head for focusing too much on the hi-hats - is that what they're called?? *looks puzzled* - and for positioning the lens directly into the sun when attempting to focus on Rob - interesting and extensive shots of his hands and nasal cavities though to be sure *laughs*) Anyway, yeah, hopefully you'll get what I'm refering to once you've heard this... if it works... *grumbles irately under breath @ computer*

 

Take care peoples. Thanks for stopping by. *BBBB-BBH* APU (talking in code now! Oooh, how mysterious *she says sarcastically as she rolls her eyes* Don't worry 'bout me, I'll get over it, need to 'unplug' for a while I think *laughs*). Anyway, TTYL,

 

-Rav

 

(P.S. Agree with you brokenangel about the all the Rob one could ever need statement... although in reflection, I don't think one could ever have too much of him - wouldn't know, don't personally know the guy to like/dislike his little nuances that may otherwise alter my basic opnion on that score - but having said that, I worry one can have too much of a good thing at times... but not in relation to our Bourdie *grins* No, never him... *drool*)

[meteora500]

oh I havent been on for a while, Well really its only been a day, but thats along time to be away from the CoB. Ive been reading! *makes super hero pose*. yeah, Ive been reading Harry Potter. Yes, say what you want, but Im a Potter fan.

 

I know im kinda late, but seeing as you guys were on the topic of first names, mine is Hilary (I personally dont really like my name but its all good), or my nickname is Billy, so as for what you wanna call me, its up to you. You can call me meteora, Hil, Hilary, Billy, or like shit head or somthing *shrugs*. Its all up to you.

 

Anywho...hey Rav, that video you were talking about, with Brad and Rob, is that on the LPU? if it is Im gonna cry. Sadly, Im not on the LPU, I wish I was, but I have kind of a "roadblock" I guess you could say, called parents. *crys*. But yeah, I wanna see that video, sounds...interesting.

 

Well, I have nothing else to say, so I must leave I guess. *slowly makes her way through the drool to the door, holding a tray of cup cakes with Rob shaped sprinkles over her head so the dont get wet*

[Ravynlee]

Anywho...hey Rav' date=' that video you were talking about, with Brad and Rob, is that on the LPU? if it is Im gonna cry. Sadly, Im not on the LPU, I wish I was, but I have kind of a "roadblock" I guess you could say, called parents. *crys*. But yeah, I wanna see that video, sounds...interesting. [/quote']Heya Billy/Hilary (I think it's a nice name anyway, much nicer than the boring old name I got stuck with - damn you father! - *sob* but I guess I can say that because I'm not the one answering to it, huh? Not a name heard often, which probably has something to do with it - there were 3 Rachel's at my high school - one of the many I attended - so I got labelled 'Fred' instead, anyway, way off topic, where were we? Oh yeah, you *chuckles*) Meteora500... glad you dropped by! *hugs*

 

Unfortunately that Rob/Brad/Mr Hahn's middle finger video IS an official LPU vid, so sorry... probably should have mentioned that before. Oops, my bad. Sorry for that. *looks apologetic* If there was some way around it I'd show you but unfortunately I don't want to get in trouble from any faction so all I can suggest is you maybe save up or nag your parents more *laugh* I know, easier said than done, right? So easy for me to say, my parents aren't an issue for me anymore... (and at this age I'd be worried if they were! *laughs again*) But who knows, maybe one day they'll (Linkin Park that is) release everything free to the public as they've threatened in a roundabout sort of way with the whole Warner thing (well, maybe allowing legal bootlegging, but y'never know, it could snowball!) So I guess until then you'll probably just have to wait... I'll do my best and see if I can Alt-PrintScreen a pic of it for you just to give you an idea in the next few days, it's a lame consolation prize but something's better than nothing, right? Maybe? Uh... I'll see what comes of it anyway... *looks hopeful*

[Pheonix791989]

wow nice hat robster! lol. god i swear i cant take any more family vacation. there are close to fifty of us. my sisters non stop bickering, my cousins telling me how to do every little thing. oh and yeah the surfing in the outer banks is fun. the swells are kindda small but when we get a nice wave its perfect. its a nice time to take a break from real world. i wish i could stay in rob world forever but hey its all good

[meteora500]

Fred? haha, nice...

 

Man it sucks that thats an official LPU video...and dont be sorry, its not your fault at all. Plus, I wouldnt want you to get in trouble either. I would pay for the membership myself cause I have more than enough money for that, but I havent talked to my mom about it lately so maybe Ill do just that. But thanks for the picture anyway, I love the hat! hahah...

[brokenangel]

rob's hat is sooo adorable!! awww... too bad it's for LPU members only... the non-members are missing sooo much it's kinda depressing (i'm not a member btw). is almost everyone here a member?

[meteora500]

yay! Im not the only one! *high fives brokenangel*. And yes it is quite depressing how much we non-members miss out on. Oh well, maybe sometime in the future I'll be able to get a membership...maybe just maybe....

 

You know...I kinda just noticed that not many different people are posting in here...hmm...maybe people are to busy drooling over Rob pictures...haha, I wouldnt doubt it...oh well...maybe I can bribe people to post with some nice Ginger Bread Rob cookies! (get it? Ginger Bread Rob cookies instead of Ginger Bread MAN cookies? hehe...oh dear...) anyway, Im bored at the moment as you may have noticed.

 

anyway, I decided to post some pictures, hope they're drool worthy, and sorry of some have already been posted.

 

 

 

 

[Rusu_luvs_LP_4ever]

Drool-a-lisious pics mon! *cleans up drools*

[Pheonix791989]

[Black_Angel]

Sorry, not been here for a little bit... nice too see everyone droolng and Rob-discussion etc... (don't know what to call it)

 

Awww his hat rocks! \m/.. nice pics peeps.

 

I'm not an LPU member either ... I have considered becoming one, but never got round to it... it seems great. I'll put in a birthday request when it gets nearer.

 

My real name is Alison, so you can call me Alison/Ali/some other shortened variation of my name, or just Black_Angel or BA or somthing *shrugs*

[Chipmonk21177]

hey CoB members!! whats up?! i havent been in here in a while, so i thought i'd drop by and see how everyone's doing. Ravynlee i luv the pic where Rob's wearin the hat! lol, only Rob can try to pull off that look, lol. anyway i just wanted to let u all know i'm still alive and still a proud member of the CoB. i've just been spending a lot of time on my myspace, and i'm also always swimming at my friend's house. so i'm like never home, which is why i'm posting at 1:33 in the morning. anyway if anyone from the CoB congregation has a myspace then add me to ur buddy list!! lol sry, but it is Rob related technically bcuz I hav like a whole bunch of Rob stuff on my myspace. so i know this is kinda off topic but plz everyone take some time out of ur Rob filled lives (lol) and check out my myspace at: http://www.myspace.com/dani_11 i'm gonna put a pic of Rob on my myspace as soon as i figure out how... oh well i better stop going on and on bcuz that Ravyn's thing, lol. good night all~ i shall ttyl

[Ravynlee]

Hey guys, me again! *waves*

Well not much happening at the mo, have been wandering back and forth past the CoB on and off just keeping an eye on the place *laughs* Yeah, I know, too much free-time now the mural's finished and a borderline 'unhealthy' obsession can do this to a person...

Oh well. I've decided to wander in and say thanks Meteora500 for the pics, especially the first one of Rob getting his hair done. I confess, that's new for me so you get a free cookie *hands over tray laden with an assortment of Rob-shaped cookies* Much thanks for that. And hell-yeah they're drool-worthy... never fear, as long as Rob's there somewhere it's enough to get the glands gushing *s******s* (Yeah, take that how you will!) Aaaanywaaays,

 

Hi to Phe, Faded_Blue, Black_Angel & Rusu *squeeze hugs to all*

 

Yeah, I've noticed only a handful of us loyalists now post but *shrug* as I've said, it was to be expected. Now the novelties have worn off and things have settled a bit, we're down to the basic yet fiercely loyal few as I think there ever was (plus a few welcome more) that we had over at the Rob Pics thread, remember? Back there for only a handful of us we sure as hell clogged that thread, remember? *laughs again* Yeah... those were the days... fun way to pass time too. But now we're in another place with a little more exposure it's kind of to be expected... but don't get disheartened. There's a few of us (like me) who's gonna stick it out. You know me, I'm like always here somewhere, hell, if I could find a way of physically sustaining my human form while remaining mentally in my virtual realm I'd never leave! *chuckles and rolls eyes*

 

Anyway, enough chit-chatter. Let's get down to some serious droolage... let me see what I've got left in my bag of tricks here...

You know, I simply can't remember which one's I've posted before or not for the most part, (should have catalogued or something) so you'll have to forgive me if I've double-posted an image. *shrug* Can't really see anyone complaining though... *chuckles*

Well, they aren't the jewels in my collection, but still nice anyway, d'uh, why else, cause it's Rob... and here they are;

Well, is all for now. I know, that's a lot of space. Depending how this goes I may change them to thumbnails *shrugs* Will post and check for myself.

Well, it sure has been awhile. I want to say hello to everyone, & I hope everyone is doing well. We are working up something behind the scenes that will hopefully better LPF. Well, that's it for now, sorry, I have no pictures.

Love & peace,

Hey, looks like we just missed each other... oh well. Just checked out your space, had a read, quite enlightening, I must say *grins* Didn't know you're a snowboarder, that's mad! I wish I had the tenacity (or availability) to do so, but alas I have no balance (and it doesn't snow here)... but put me on ice-skates however and it's a whole other matter (yay) but that's besides the point. Anyway, just thought I'd let you know had a read (and a laugh) and thought I'd say hi to ya, *hugs* and now I'll go again.

BTW, thanks for the props about the CoB on your space, much appreciated! *hands over more cookies* And again, just what you need, another Rachel in your life *rolls eyes* Well, we can't be all bad, huh?

Take care, TTYL,
