If these artists appreciate and respect each other's work enough ~ makes you think they would expect no less from their fans? I love Blue October. I gave up reading for a while, so I had no clue who this author was. I will take advantage of this tour to go see him perform - BUT - I want to appreciate the entire event. There's no way I'm going to sit there and not have a clue what she has to offer - that would be a bit silly on my part. So I picked up Twilight yesterday and will read it with an open mind. While I am thankful that Blue's lyrics have helped me along the way, I will say - that they are not for everyone. But for those who found them and appreciate their therapeutic value - good for you :) See you in New York :) I think the audience will pretty much be split 3 ways…

- fans there to hear Stephanie Meyer explain her brilliance

- fans there to hear Justin Furstenfeld share his brilliance

- and fans that keep an open mind and welcome true art in both forms by both messengers

Either way, it will truly be an unforgettable day for all of us.

I still don't like them, but to each his own, and if they helped Stephenie write one of the best books ever than Whoo hoo for them and I hope they keep on singing. Sorry for the misunderstanding, twilight fans should be spreading the love and not being mean. Friends? Hope so!

All the time Stephenie talked about the emotions of Muse, I always pictured Blue October so this is incredible to me. "Congratulations" always makes me picture Jacob attending Edward and Bella's wedding. "i came to see the light in my best friend you seem as happy as you've ever been my chance at being open was broken and now you're Mrs. Him" "i wanted to give you something i’ve been wanting to give to you for years... my heart my heart... my pain won't cover up... you left me my heart cant take this cover up... you left me i cant take this i can never take it back i can't change your mind" I’m Blue October’s #1 Fan so I am so geeked about this.

“Congratulations” always makes me picture Jacob attending Edward and Bella’s wedding.

“i came to see the light in my best friend
you seem as happy as you’ve ever been
my chance at being open was broken and now you’re Mrs. Him”

“i wanted to give you something
i’ve been wanting to give to you for years…
my heart

my heart… my pain won’t cover up… you left me
my heart cant take this cover up… you left me

i cant take this
i can never take it back
i can’t change your mind”

AND i do think it's actually seriously cool that a huge band (i can admit when something is popular) would pair up with an author to do a promotion like this, encouraging a kind of artist to artist respect which is, well, cool. yes, very cool indeed. okay, so, i’m probably going to get reamed for this one, but i am totally NOT a blue october fan. being an emo and indie girl, i tend to gravitate toward the subtle and more interesting sounds of bands like death cab, straylight run, or onerepublic. when i wanna rock out, i much prefer bands like paramore, head automatica, or butch walker (like the name dropping?) to furstenfeld’s strained and raspy vocals and the band’s generic (yes, i’m sorry, but it’s true) radio sound.
