Even if the person was an amazing singer, I don't think MMMBop would be the best song choice. It doesn't really let a person showcase what they can do with their vocal ability.

I think it was for the "This Time Around" video that he just played a piece of wood and they edited it to look like a piano.

Like a couple have said, I'm sure it's down to memory for him, even if he is just playing a piece of wood, like in the instance of the TTA video. He (along with Isaac and Zac) play their songs so often that they are memorized, and even when playing on a piece of wood I'm sure he knows where he would position hishands on thepiano to play the correct chords.

I think some peopl ehave and some people haven't. It seems like it depends on the person hosting the walk and their level of comfort doing so.

When I get bored, I come on Hnet and look at the links in people's signatures.

^Thank you so much! :)

If you were eligible to vote (i.e. registered to vote) in the 2004 presidential election, did you vote? If you did not vote, why?

How important is it that young people vote?

I'm really crossing my fingers that I'll get it for Christmas, which I think I will. I'm excited to read it! :)

^ Just sent you a PM with a couple links. :)

So I was just searching around, and it looks like there will be a "12 Days of Christmas" thing. I'll send you a PM about it right now. :)

I think you're referring to the one that has a fan fic, recipe, or graphic for each day of December?

I have no idea where it is. I loved it a few years ago, though.

Haha, at first I was like "Why would you bash 7 Zac posters?! What did they do to you? Give you a paper cut?!" Then I realized this post wasn't talking about posters but posers instead. My bad, haha. 

A do over would be absolutely fabulous. I would love for quite a few aspects of my life to turn out differently than they are right now. 

sk6ers, matt nathanson (though i've kind of loved him for 2 years now) and britney's "circus" album. 

I definitely listened to EITM on Thursday. What a good interview, though I'll admit that hearing they drove the entire way with no lights on kinda had me nervous for them, but they got them fixed for their drive back, thank god. :)

I loved how Eliott asked them about Rock Boat and who was on it and when SK mentioned Hanson, Elliott was like "Hey wait, I have to thank you guys for recommending them because we got them on your recommendation and they were some of the nicest guys" or whatever it was he said. It was unexpected but totally awesome to hear. And their songs. *sigh* I LOVE THEM!

Were you at the show at the 9:30 Club on Thursday? It was so awesome!

Everything's a stinking liability it's ridiculous.
