The CoB - Church of Bourdon Thread!

[Ravynlee]

Thanks Rusu and Phi, means a lot. awww *hugs to all*

Actually I don't have Paintshop either, I have a photoviewing program called Ulead Photo Express and the basic windows Paint program. That's it. But still, I do what I can.

Thanks for the praise though guys, makes me feel all special...

 

Screenshots of media player? Never thought of that! Wow, thanks for the idea! Hmm... wonder what else I can do... shall play around more, to be sure, and see what else I can come up with.

Shall see.

 

BTW, Phi, thanks for the chocolate. Mmmm. *drools*

[Pheonix791989]

Cool, my second favourite thing in the whole wide universe.

What's the first I hear you ask? Oh... nuthin.

Not a GQ guy? Come off it Robert, you can't even lie straight in bed. *pfft!*

And don't look so impressed, you know you love the attention *grins*

[Black_Angel]

Cool siggie Rav!

 

Mmm Robertness *drool*

 

Meh I can't talk.. well e-talk, and real life talk for that matter.. oh who cares, after a while they both kinda merge into one anyway . I think the whole Xmassy time has worn me out.

[meteora500]

Oh I love the siggys ravy-rav!...heh

 

so uh...speaking of x-mas I finally got the Sims2 (yay!) so you know what would be really great? If I could get that site that you have Rav, where you can get all that LP stuff, and the Sim-LPs...perhaps I will reward you with a BIG SMOOCH! heh...maybe somewhere other than the cheek Like...ehm...ON ROB! hehehehe....yeah... that would be nice. But to be realistic, how does a big kiss on the ear sound to you?....Heh....hhahahaha...Am I the oonly one that finds that funny? "how does a big kiss on the EAR SOUND to you?" hehehehe....oh dear...I think Ive been eating to much sugar lately. I BLAME IT ON CHRISTMAS TREATS!!!! And Holidays...I eat alot during any holidays. Even summer holidays...prolly because I eat when Im bored, and during holidays, Im bored alot...

 

meh...adiue (is that how you spell it?)

Im gonna go play sims.

[Ravynlee]

You're welcome. This is the place for Sims fanatics (although I have to admit it's been about a month now since I've played Sims2 with time constraints such as work, this place, gym and writing my incredibly long fanfic - but I plan on rectifying that issue soon enough)

 

http://www.modthesims2.com/

 

Registering is free. You need to register to get access to the downloads but TRUST me it is to the Sims2 what LPU is to LP fans - it's simply a must!

Search the site for LP stuff - they even have most of their released singles as clips the Sims can watch on TV. So along with playing LP on the sims stereo (and in neighbourhood/build/CAS screens) and having the LP members as sims themselves, plus LP posters, bedding, customised instruments and so forth, your Sims can watch themselves perform on TV too! How awesome is that?!?

Anyway, hope you have fun there - I know when I go there I can easily spend a day almost literally on a downloading frenzy. Go nuts. Enjoy yourself. Let us know how your Sim LP members work out in game *grins*

 

As for that kiss? Um... a hug's fine, thanks. *laughs* But good to see someone's infected with the Xmas spirit, sugar-rush or not. You cracked me up. Thanks for that. Sounded pretty close to what I think people think my rants must sound like. Wow. You're like my protege. Go figure.

 

And thanks all for the sig-praise. Not done yet. Lots more Rob love comin at ya soon enough, you can count on that!

 

Take care, *big Bourdie bear hugs* TTYL,

-Rav

[Pheonix791989]

wow I havent even gotten sims yet. I want it though. my closest thing to sims is the create-a-skater on THUG 2. (I have one that looks like BBB and one that looks like Rob) but yeah u have an awesome siggy. it rocks the fuzzy pink socks XD srry, im on a sugar rush too

[meteora500]

Thanks alot...now Im really excited! heheh...*big-bourdie-bopper-bone-breaking-bear hug to rav!*

[Ravynlee]

Thanks alot...now Im really excited! heheh...*big-bourdie-bopper-bone-breaking-bear hug to rav!*

You're very welcome. Right back at 'ya! :thumbsup:

[Ravynlee]

Hey Bourdonites. Place has been quiet of late, distressingly so. Need to breathe new life into it. Prepare to kiss your screen (?!? - where the hell did that come from? *laughs at self* then )

 

http://www.offtopic.forum/data/MetaMirrorCache/86c39104d0930df69ab69a71afdceaf4.jpg

A beauty of a pic I came across a few weeks back. Just all round goodness. Aww-factor 11/10. *drool*

 

Happy New Years. Just got happier, 'eh?

 

-Rav

[Pheonix791989]

yup it sure did. a gorgeous man with a good looking kit, lol that is drool worthy

[Ravynlee]

My first response to your post - 'The kit or the man?' *laughs* Yeah, kit's nice too in it's won way I guess. Remembering that the closest I've ever really come to a drumkit is the one I walk past on my way to and from work at the music store downtown... So not my thing. But I can appreciate it for what it is. Me, if I climbed up on the stool, would look like a 5 year old lost behind them... so not funny. And given the fact I have no rhythm. I suck. But the pick doesn't! (Note to self; nice continuum there, flows well. Like the way we went back to the start of the post. Clever! )

 

Well, I have this too, while we're discussing His kit;

http://www.offtopic.forum/data/MetaMirrorCache/18b0b5ebaf898be607685729e34a15e9.jpg

There you go. *looks vague* That's what he sits down to. Phi, Viking, you guys would appreciate it more than me being drummers and all, but me... I like the pretty pictures! *rolls eyes again*

Wonder what the big guy/rest of the guys are doing right now for New Years? Hmm. Just a thought.

 

Well, take care. *hugs* Talk again soon, as always,

 

-Rav

[Pheonix791989]

wow that things bigger then what I use. I mean its huge

[Ravynlee]

He's a big guy! *laughs*

Plus, it's probably true what they say about Size does matter. Probably an ego thing.

And not to mention the fact he's gotta share the stage with some pretty big personalities, if he was tucked away in the corner with just a snare or something he'd be laughed off stage *laughs*

That's a funny visual though. Not that I'd ever say it to his face...

XD

All hail the lord of the drums.

(I'm such a kiss@$$! )

[Pheonix791989]

yeah u r. but it pays sometimes. but then again if your in the military all you do is kiss ass and take orders. but wow that visual is hilarious

[Black_Angel]

Mmm yummeh pic O.O However drums mean nothing to me, I prefer the man behind them

 

Oh and Happy New Year CoBers ^__^

[meteora500]

Oh man thats a very sexy picture there! *puts on desktop* Oh my....you know what? i think I have a new favorite picture of him...*swoons* Hehehe...look...hes wearing socks! *points at his foot* hehe. Why do I fund that so funny? Its like...hot, hot, hot, SOCK! .....yeah. Anywho, moving right along...

 

I love that visual...Rod sitting in a dark corner on the stage, slouched over a single snare randomly banging in it....heh...oh my...

 

and yes, I quite agree with you, its all about the man, not the hardware. .....that sounded dirty...

[Pheonix791989]

yeah he is wearing socks, thats cool, i wonder what type of socks they are

[Ravynlee]

Rob-socks = damn sexay. Maybe smelly but *meh* Don't care. Put 'em in a glass case and sell on eBay I say! *laughs* I'm sure someone would buy em...

 

Me!

 

Anyway... yea, damn hot pickie. Man... I have said it before and shall keep saying it; I have no rhythm. This means when people clap hands I'm the one clapping off beat. I'm the one singing a stanza behind everyone else... I suck hardcore, but I admire those with reflexes like feral cats - (aka Drummers; Rob, Lars, Phi!) I wish I had that kinda talent. Remember the clapping game on LPTV? That still blows me away... man... bet he was annoying as all hell as a kid in kindergarten when they play their clapping games. Young master Bourdon would keep going while the rest of the class would collapse in exhaustion! XD Go Bobert, go! (Side note: I'd hate to play Red-hands with him! *cringes* Bet the rest of the band have learnt not to challenge him to a game of that either... *more eyerolling*)

 

And as for worshipping his kit? Um, no. Else this place would be called Church of Bourdon's Drums or something... I'd much prefer to drool myself into an uncsonscious state all over the man himself than his damned kit for crying out loud! *laughs fit to kill herself as she imagines Rob swatting her away*

Anyway, happy new year fellow CoBers. *hugs to all*

Take care and talk again soon,

 

-Rav

[Pheonix791989]

you do have a good point, I would not want to play either bloody knuckles or slaps with him. I could possiably beat him at thumps but I wouldnt bet on it. as far as the clapping game goes, i rule at that. haha, he'd prolly have me beat since I'd pass out from seeing him let alone playing some weird game like that. lol

[Ravynlee]

*laughs* Ouch, I think! *hides hands* I'm not playing that with either of you for that matter.

 

Um... with all these stories going on and so forth I feel bad I've been neglecting my former love, from whence all this current madness really sprung from anyway (meaning this place), but thought with everyone's opinions floating around on the subject of our screwed up family, we may as well go to the source and get the big guy's impression of it all.

So, Rob, what do you think?

 

Rob:

http://www.offtopic.forum/data/MetaMirrorCache/8aec61ad2fd1ecb97fb581847827ea38.jpg

*laughs*

Yep, he's typically impressed, as ever. *pfft!*He's like 'Who did what now? God damn it, come any closer and I'm gonna stab you with this drumstick, I swear it...'

 

Poor guy.

BTW, for those that don't have it, that pic is from the LP book 'Meterora; Linkin Park's From the Inside.' My copy. I scanned it just now. You like? Me like! Very, very muchly! *drools over pages and gets them stuck together*

Aha... yeah... *blushes*

 

Take care and TTYL, as per usual,

-Rav

[meteora500]

Augh man...I lurve it...its like from the POV of the drum...heh, lucky drum. I wish I was his drum. *sigh* yes.

 

ehm...I quite enjoy that book myself. Very interesting. My personal favorite part is where it talks about the practical jokes that they play on each other, and it has the pics of Chester hanging upside down. Thats a good part. Yes. And due to a lack of things to say, Im gonna go...

[Pheonix791989]

that is intresting... well it could have been shot from the bass drum pov. that would have been even weirder come to think of it. not that you would mind rav XD but hey its all good.

[Ravynlee]

that is intresting... well it could have been shot from the bass drum pov. that would have been even weirder come to think of it. not that you would mind rav XD but hey its all good.

*blushes*

I'm not gonna comment on this (as much as I want to) on the grounds that anything I say is gonna incriminate me (or just plain come back and bite me on the ass) so... I won't...

But for future reference, Phi, stay out of my head. It's a nasty place and even I'm scared to go in there sometimes *laughs and shakes head*

 

Me hiding in the bass drum... *sigh* You're right, I wouldn't mind... sorta...

*evil smirk*

 

Hil - I have to say, as much as I loved the images and teh descriptions and so forth, what I loved more than anything was the quotes. There's one by Chas from that photoshoot they did in that hotel pool where he's talking about having a reason to be an artist... Very powerful stuff.

I also loved Rob's quote on his own pressures of drumming - in given that he wants to be so perfect, regardless what the other band members hear, it captured a part of character quite well I think that we aren't usually afforded from magazine articles etc. Plus... it kind of inspired me to write a bit, so... *shrugs*

Anyway... love the book. Just wish they had a book like that on Frat Party. How awesome would that be?!? Mad...

[meteora500]

Hahaha, Bass drum. That would be rather interesting...

 

And yes I quite agree with you on that one Rav...They put some pretty deep stuff in that book. Heh... I just went up 3 floors to my room to get the book out of my cd cupboard thing(yes I have a cupboard for my cds(well actualy its a...ehm...I forget what its called, but its has like drawers on the bottom and doors and shelfs on top) because my cds are my most prized possesions.)...amazing, I wont go upstairs to pee unless I really have to but I went up to get a book....yeah anyways back on topic.....heh, on the inside page, just on the other side of the cover where it has the picture if the crowd, whenever i look at it I cant help but notice that on the right hand page, right around the middle, there is a guy thats facing the opposite direction than everybody else. Heh. And Ugh! theres like no girls in that pic! they are all guys...hmmm....anywho...

 

I LOVE the Foreword that David Fricke did...awesome. I also really like how thay have all the serious quotes in there, like the pressures of being a drummer, and Chesters lyric writing, and then thay have the funny ones too, like the towel fight, and Joe and his punching bag...yeah, i love this book. I keep meaning to look at it again but I never get around to it. Yeah....well Im gonna header, I think Ive gone on long enough.
