Thanks! He's looking great. He always seems to give an honest reaction.

[sssneaking.livejournal.com]

He does indeed.

I love it when he is outspoken. :D

[sssneaking.livejournal.com]

I love the way they gently call him out for complaining about the Playboy Party having also gone to it.

[overlithe64.livejournal.com]

he did seem to miss that point...but he was there for a specific reason...albeit at the wrong time...

[nasturtium-leas.livejournal.com]

Yes, of course..he was there for Justice... but they were going to be on too late. The bunnies( not OUR Bunnie!) were irrelevant. o_0

I do like how he sounds so superior to anything 'Playboy' while he's actually AT the Playboy party. I'm pretty sure he get's the irony. ;)

[overlithe64.livejournal.com]

Which of course makes it even more amusing...

I love it when he calls it as he sees it....honest to a fault, I do share that sometimes inconvenient trait, it doesn't always payoff. But it seems to work quite well for E.

Except when disgruntled actor/musicians try to throttle him.

[overlithe64.livejournal.com]

ah yes the one time its seems to have bit him in his tight little.....

I hope Jared won't be there! ;)

Thanks for this. I like his take on things.

Thanks for the link!:)

Can I ask this playboy party what is if/it is the wrong???

[sssneaking.livejournal.com]

I think it's two things.

One is that it's kind of a sell-out. By that I mean music fans take their music very seriously, it's supposed to be about loving the music. Playboy are a non-music company just doing promotions. It's got nothing to do with the music at all.

Two it's Playboy which is not exactly classy.

[mumis.livejournal.com]

I understand thanks for your answered!:)

So that's the reason why he wasn't at Dom's exhibition opening in LA...A playboy party???

Can't say I am not a bit disappointed, hope he'll make it to the NY opening, otherwise I might get seriously disappointed from the lack of new LotR reunion pics;)

Thanks for posting!

That's not the reason he wasn't there, he's there for the Simian thing tomorrow (as well as the rest of SXSW I presume). This was just him trying to see a particular DJ set (probably in spite of it being at the Playboy party) and discovering it was going to be on too late for him because he has to be up early the next day for "business".
