Spells for a Broken Wand AIEEE

UM SERIOUSLY HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS ? The Remus Lupins on MySpace.

I honestly dislike visting MySpace, as it just appears (doomandnachos said this earlier) like a big horrible tiled-background eyesore with fifty million links, none of them going anywhere useful; and the minefield of embedded music playing whatever I don't feel like hearing. But. I had to check this out- there is a band called The Remus Lupins, the brainchild of a kid named Alex, and the picture of their new album cover alone is worth the price of admission (going to MySpace.)

I repeat. There is a band called The Remus Lupins. I have to fall about crying and giggling to myself now. Thanks.

See, I am not terribly into the whole wizard rock thing, since I am very picky and snobbish about my music; but I have to love them for what they're doing. It's hilarious and somehow sweet. And the little ties ! And scarves ! And shabby tweed jackets ! MY HEART COULD EXPLODE FROM THE LUPIN. I want to write pages and pages of badfic where Remus tours with a folk band and smokes leaning against the tour bus and finds Sirius in his dressing room and oh, my spleen, the love !

I am a 'splode.

...his school tie half untied around his neck, shoe leather scuffed and dusty to a degree that would bring on convulsions in the McGonagall.

Right on.

Um, guh. You know, this is why we're in fandom. For those silly, lovely, gut-punching moments where everything falls into place, and we're not limiting ourselves to any one idea, but expressing every single one, and letting them feed into one another.

Okay. I lost my mind for a sec, but- The Remus Lupins. Oh Yes.

Aha, that's definitely the best one yet. I don't really like the whole wizard rock thing, either, but these guys have great graphics and the one song I've listened to so far is actually fairly decent. Cute!

Yeah, the album cover is so classic seventies singer-songwriter that it's irresistable. I love in the bio, he's all like: I sometimes sing songs from Neville's point of view, or Ron's ! Glee !

OH MY GOODNESS! I may have actually squeed at that. I shouldn't like it...but it's so wonderful! I mean, they picked REMUS. This is me sighing contendedly.

Ha, there was definite squee over here, dude. Hooray for Remus ! If anybody has a secret past with groupies, it'd have to be him, since he wasn't dead or in prison..... ;)
