Interpol

Wait, what?
I heard that they were there for the signing - well, Paul and Sam. Some girl [on the Interpol Message Board] got Paul to sign a picture she had as "Fancy Pants" [totally adorable]. I hadn't heard about them being late, but I think they did mess up on No I in Threesome and had to start over again [awwww].

Oh, and, awww, a pick. I remember Carlos giving some girl in the audience a pick the one time I saw them. Hmm, I wonder why? That nasty, nasty Carlos.

YAY for new Interpol fans!!!

oh, well I dunno, that's what ani said. or at least, for some reason she had to miss the signing thing. or something.

but still.

she got a pick, that totally makes up for it.


the only signature I don't have from when I saw them two years ago is Paul's... =( he was the only one not there.

and that fancypants thing.... <3 I love people sometimes haha. that's amazing.

When isn't a picture of Paul sexy?!?! NEVER!!!! haha

thephantommilk

nawh, it was just a signing, unfortunately.

but still pretty amazing. and I got to see them up close!! haha. seriously. highlight of my existence much?

ohhhh I would be so scared to say/do anything if I ever really met them.

okraparrot5

^^
haha, awwwww

Well signings are sexy!! I don't think the band likes them very much, but they do it for the fans omg, I wouldn't even have the courage to go up to them at a signing...I would totally just freak out at the door of the place. NOT COOL.

thephantommilk

I was so nervous to go up and give them my poster haha. seriously, all I remember is being overwhelmed that they were right in front of me, and like, Carlos really did have that much hairspray in, and Sam really did have a missing tooth, and Daniel was smiling like he could tell I was nervous, and then it was over.

<3

good memories.

Poor Carlos with that crazy attitude and his diseases, no one wants him If anything I'll take him. I'm sure JP won't mind another drinking buddy. He went with me to school today. I could not stop laughing in 3rd period. I think the teacher was about to slap me. JP was just being charming/funny like always [I didn't get some of his jokes though so I just pretended to laugh. He's too smart!!].

i know! they're all really funny/clever/sexy/awesome. i was laughing at one of sam's jokes today and my friend looks over at me and says, "You're talking to that imaginary friend again, aren't you?" then she took my hysterical laughter as a yes and said, "Is this Sam or the other one... jp?" I couldn't believe she actually payed attention to my ramblings about them. She knew their names
they are now my weapon to check if people are listening to me: "so... sam how's it going? yeah, me too. oh i know!" etc and if people look at me strangely i know i've got their attention

So, when I was at Summer Sonic, I saw Interpol for the first time and I think I love them now. More specifically, I love Daniel's dancing. I think that's what really did it for me. Just thought I would mention that.

I'm also really confused because I have no idea what's going on in this thread and I'm way too lazy to go through the 20 pages of posts.

Welcome! Oh man, i can't even begin to imagine how confusing this must be for you. Oh well, all that really matters is that you love Interpol and we didn't even have to recruit you!!!

hahaha, awwww.
omg, I would have acted the same way. I bet they're all so pretty up close. Sam made me turn into jello and I was like 10 feet away. I can't imagine being that close, awww...

haha, Sam. I'm sure Sam is the funniest one. He should come visit us again. I was telling my friends about JP today too. They wanted to meet him but he doesn't like going to school Some other time I guess.

and you're welcome!! There are a few videos of that Virgin thing up on youtube if you wanted to see them.

fog05tile

at your sig. that really is a work of art!

i'm sending sam over now. he spent all day at school and he cannot stand to watch me do anymore work. i hope jp is doing well, tell him he's quite welcome to visit at any time.

i'm going to youtube now.


edit: could someone PLEASE adopt Carlos?? i just don't have time for two imaginaries and i think he'd really appreciate a caring home all to himself. i'm looking at you ambie...

okraparrot5

^^
haha, well i'm going to sleep soon so sam and jp can do w/e they want. i think my dad bought some beer hahah. i'll take them both to school tomorrow. i have a presentation and i need their support!!!! and their clever jokes to help me relax!!!

my sig is sexy...............interpol & gob = love

ambie adopt carlos!!

fog05tile

oh man, not beer! dude, all i can say is i'm glad they'll be making the mess at your place and not mine.

i don't know what/who gob is except that its probably the picture on the left. i agree interpol are sexy

omg that reminds me of this crazy mind map my friend and i made today. it's got interpol on it and its very very very cool!

okraparrot5

haha, don't worry I know how to keep these guys on check. there's gonna be no funny business at my house

oh, and gob is a character from arrested development, which u should watch!!!

a map omg, you must tell me about it!!!

fog05tile

well interpol are only mentioned once but they do get 'sexy' status. i just took a picture of it for my friend because it's so amazing she had to have a copy of it too. here you go:


(interpol are near the top right hand corner)

i guess it's not really a mind map... so i don't know if it will make any sense to you but we reckon it's genius

okraparrot5

^^
haha, omg that is the most confusing thing ever. i have no idea whats going on.

oh, but i like the peter p, my lioness, bathed in nothing but sweat, and fall out boy = crap parts!!


JP should have been on there!!!!

All the imaginary friends with Paul in them (Paul and JP) seem to have troubles with alcohol.

Oh no, don't get me wrong, Imaginary!Paul is by no means an alcoholic. It was just that this night, he got a little outta control. Imaginary!Paul is an avid tea drinker and a bit of a health nut. He tries to get me to join him at the gym, but I'm rather lazy. He's also (I've found) a bit of a language purist. He really dislikes change to the English language and a lot of our nights end in furious debates over the matter. The good thing about this is that it DOES help me in revision for my linguistics and semantics course. So I'll thank Imaginary!Paul for that later by baking him a cake. An INTERVENTION CAKE! I'll bake JP one too.

QUOTE

awwww, I was very upset that I couldn't come too, but imaginary traveling takes much less time than real traveling, and unfortunately, school eats all my time. Daniel says he still had tons of fun with you two, though, even with Paul eventually imaginarypuking all over him. He also says, "what are friends/bandmates for? seriously, we kind of need Paul if we're going to continue being imaginary!Interpol."

I'll apologise to Imaginary!Daniel on Imaginary!Paul's behalf for getting sick on him. In fact, Imaginary!Paul is offering to buy him a new shirt, if that helps?

QUOTE

methinks the Imaginaries! should come to New England. Daniel thinks they'd really like all the pretty fall colors that are coming out soon. And they could do nerdy intellectual stuff like go to the whaling/nautical museums in like Gloucester and New Bedford and such. I'm sure Paul would love that, what with his obsession with nautical stuff. And they should get to see REAL New England, which is NOT where the Real!Interpol recorded their first two albums. posh suburban Connecticut isn't New England. Then they could go into Boston, and pick up hot college girls. I'm sure they'd like that, too. even if they're not Australian. =)

Sounds like a wonderful weekend adventure! Tell us how it goes!

QUOTE

My thing with Gary Oldman is getting out of hand. I apologise in advance for any stupid fan girl things i post in the future, as i'm quite sure i'll find a way to post more pictures of him

Oh dear! Well as long as you post pics of the lovely boys from Interpol, I'm sure we won't mind!!

Yay! More Interpol fans! Welcome to the craziness porifera and ezorvera!

QUOTE

aww, I'm not mad. I don't think Interpol is the easiest band to get in to, but once you have, it's amazing You can listen to them now though!!! and a lot. a lot, a lot, a lot.

I'll agree that Interpol aren't that easy to get into. They aren't "upbeat" or "catchy" in the sense that, for example, OK Go, is. But Interpol have a very distinct sound (mainly due to Paul's very distinct vocals) that you can't really describe can you? The closest I've got to it is calling it "atmospheric" with very metaphorical lyrics.

OMG milky, I am so jealous of your friend!!! A pick!!! Aaargh!!

Hey, at least you got to MEET them!!! I'd probably totally spazz out if I met one of them, in or out of a signing. I'm never good at coming up with things to say. Well, actually that's a lie. I always come up with things to say, it's just that most of the time, I look back on those things and cringe.

Thankyou so so so much for those vids and pics Vinnie! Oh and GOB and Franklin? Classic! I love that scene that that pic is from and how like, two seconds into their song, the camera goes over to the sound controller majigs behind the screen and all we see is a spinning chair (because the producer has left!)

fog05tile

hehe i'd forgotten about the pol references!

i shall explain it a little more. RW= ron weasley, RG= Rupert Grint, G.Oldman= Gary Oldman, DR= Daniel Radcliffe, HP= Harry Potter and Mrs C is our english teacher (we made it in english)

she's not very familiar with jp so i couldn't really put him in there.

oh and from that "thing" we have invented a new sexy code. if you see someone sexy you go "oh he is so yellow" and if you see someone un-sexy you can call them "green"

I agree that Interpol have a distinct sound but i also know that people who aren't really into them can find their songs to all sound the same too. Like, they have the same, distinctively interpol sound. hard to explain, maybe.

That is one sexy map JB!

Why do so many people insist upon this? Not that I'm mad or anything, but it seems to be a common thing that everyone says who listen to them for the first time. I think I said the same thing! But I have since seen the light...

QUOTE

HAHAHAHA! I saw a boy with a "The Strokes" shirt. A lot of people have that shirt. Just as many people who have a "The Ramones" shirt. You really have to wonder whether they actually listen to those bands or whether they just wanna look cool.

fog05tile

I can't really get mad at them because I tend to say the same thing about bands i'm not a fan of (fob, mcr, w&c)

I think we can safely say everyone in this thread has seen the light! Goodness, you're all so beautiful

I see "The Ramones" shirts everywhere but Strokes ones don't seem so common...
I know one girl who was wearing a Ramones shirt even after admitting she doesn't listen to them. I think generally those people are just trying to look trendy.

Haha, and thanks for the compliment on our sexy map!

yes!
