You don’t need cleavage to have Big Tit Energy, man. Just shimmy those thin shoulders and work those hips. Do I have to show you how to do everything? People just wish they were this iconic. Get into the groove, man. It’s not a blazing hot duet without a little dirty dancing.

Pretty sure ya do but I could be wrong about that.  Yeah, actually, I do need you to show me how to do everything because I'm wildly incompetent and can't dance.  Maybe you should put your hands on my hips and guide me, it’d be appreciated.  Other than that, I’m so in the fucking groove, dude.  Groovy as shit.

You have? How did that happen? Neither are they mine, Ashley can attest to that - I always tell her about appointments, premieres and official things at the last second. I’m not going to stop you, Ry, no way. We went to Lisbon, Ashley’s idea, and she really planned these days, so we could make the most of them. Really? I’ve never seen anything I wouldn’t do, so… are you going to be at the Open Mic Night tonight?

There’s no special, quirky story, I just view my birthday as another day of the year.  Not big on celebrating... well, anything unless it’s Halloween, typically.  Yeah, I tend to be the same.  I know I’m gonna be late or running behind to begin with, so.  That’s amazing, dude.  I’m likely repeating myself but I’m glad you guys had a good time.  Usually ‘cause we sneak away somewhere private but not private enough.  I am, yes.  If I’m not with Brendon, you can find me near any booze or in the corner somewhere.

rylchelsey:

You know, that would be truly amazing, if you friend also has any brownie recipes she doesn’t mind imparting, I would be forever grateful!

I’ll have to text her soon.  I believe she’s busy with a video shoot right now, I’m not sure.  Regardless, when I have the recipes, you’ll be the first to know.  I know she’s included... uh, nutritional yeast in her mac and cheese? I think that’s what it is.  I never really ask questions, I just eat.

Did it ever work for you, using the horn and yelling at people? Here, the traffic doesn’t seem to bad, but I’m used to walking everywhere. In New York, in Paris or Barcelona you cannot go anywhere by car, it’d take too long. Yes, isn’t it amazing? And if you get tired, you can just sit in a park and enjoy life surrounding her. It wasn’t like this afterwards, but my first experience just about made me pack up and go back home. I’m glad I didn’t - instead I went to Spain and got my foot in the door from there. I have to meet your lizard, and that’s no euphemism, but really, the animal you have. They are - I should do it, but being a single mum with a toddler… it might be a little much to choose a dog? She is, she seems amazing. 

Um, if I was lucky, yeah.  As it turns out, though, I’m a pretty unlucky guy so mainly it just pissed a lot of people off.  The traffic isn’t nearly as atrocious here but I’m with you in that regard.  If I can, I’d rather walk.  Less impact on the environment, fresh air is nice, no traffic, and you might spot some new places.  What isn’t there to like about that? Bad experiences don’t always have a bad ending and I’m happy there was a change of pace after what you dealt with.  Now I can’t think of that as anything other than a euphemism but you’re more than welcome to come over and meet him, as well as the pups.  Totally understandable, children come first.  She’s very amazing, trust me there.  There’ll be another Z Berg and Friends show in December on the 15th, and you’re certainly invited to it.

Yes - there’s nothing better after a difficult day. And no matter what, they’ll give you all the love and devotion. Thank you, man - and yes, they’re going well. I’ve been writing and playing music for decades, but for myself. And now, I teamed up with another musician and we’ve put out some music. What made you move here, I don’t think I ever asked that? 

Absolutely agree with you on that.  Dogs are the epitome of unconditional love, dude.  No problem, glad to hear it’s going well.  I’ve been in the same boat for awhile now, actually, keeping music to myself.  I’ll have to look into what you’ve put out, though.  Uh, a change of pace was needed, for the most part.  Needed to get away from LA chaos and attempt to settle down for a bit.  What brought you here, man?

royalbrendon:

You can just do female impressions all night, let’s get some Stevie Nicks going, you got this, dude. Let’s do “Dreams” next! People are gonna get so sick of us, I fucking love it.

How do I do that without making an ass of myself? Do I squish non-existent cleavage together? Actually, no, I don’t trust how you’ll react to that.  I assume that people are already sick of us, B, we are... something else, to put it lightly.

justmaxirons:

Thank you, Ry! Don’t worry about it, I’m not mad, when someone doesn’t know or forgets, we all do once in a while. Aw, you are great, though you don’t need to? That’s true, I’m usually the “late” kind. I did have the best day, and it was an amazing trip to a city I haven’t been in before. Please do, and enjoy yourself. Take Brendon!

If it helps, I’ve forgotten my own birthday, so.  Dates just aren’t my strong suit, man, kinda embarrassing.  I know I don’t need to but I want to, and you’re not stopping me, so.  Take that.  I’m glad, dude, that’s great.  Where’d you go? Anything interesting happen? Of course I’m dragging Brendon along, though we haven’t exactly made a good name for ourselves when we're in public together.

rylchelsey:

I mean, the eating part was fun, the barfing part, not so much. Thank you, though. I suppose all the nausea and lack of cheese is going to be worth it in the end.

I’d certainly hope the nausea and lack of cheese will be worth it.  But, hey, if you or the baby decide you’re in the mood for mac and cheese again, I can ask my friend Z if she has any recipes.  She doesn’t consume dairy products so maybe she has a recipe that your stomach can agree on.

@nosferatuross

Ryan, come on, we’re gonna do “I Got You, Babe”–yes, in front of this crowd of people. Channel your inner Cher and let’s make it happen!

You should’ve prepared me, dude, I could’ve thrown on an outfit like Cher’s and really sell the act.  Get ready to be outshined, though, I’ve been ready for this moment for fuckin’ years.

msirinashayk:

It is, isn’t it? Like Paris, only with more chaos, and I didn’t think it was possible. LA is much more relaxed, if with more traffic. Everyone’s driving there, aren’t they? In New York, you can walk, or take the metro, and then go wherever you need. Well, it kind of is, actually - I was living in a small apartment with other girls who had just started out as models, and the ones who were to care about us where horrible to us. They’d keep food rations at the smallest amount, and weigh and measure every odd day, and some girls were horribly mean, trying to claw their way to the top. They do - such beautiful creatures. How did you choose the name? Did it just speak to you? Are you me? You are describing me, and if I had a dog, it would judge me so horribly. You’re so lucky, my friend. And yes, I did - it was something else, a little different than what I had expected.

LA traffic is... uh, not something I’ve missed, to say the least.  I want to be harsh but let’s face it: I was one of the assholes honking my horn at every moment, yelling at people to hurry the fuck up.  Luckily, I haven’t done that as much lately.  I did like exploring New York, though, it was nice to just be able to walk around like that.  Very different to LA.  Damn, that sounds really shitty.  Really glad you got out of that toxic environment.  It just spoke to me, you could say.  I saw the little dude and was like, ‘this is it, this is the chosen lizard’.  Dude, I highly recommend adopting a dog or two if it’s feasible for you.  Such good companions.  I’m happy you had a good time.  That sounds about right, though, Z is a very... expect the unexpected type of gal.

royalpeacekeeper:

Thanks man! It is a little stressful because it’s finally out there, you’ve released it, and no more changes can be made. I always tend to listen to some of our own music and hear a lyric or two that I could have done differently, or somethin’, but we can be our own worst critics sometimes. I dunno if you’ve ever been to one of our shows before, but we can get a little wild on stage— just a heads up beforehand.

Of course, dude.  I’ve been there before, no fuckin’ doubt.  It’s always, always when the album is released that I notice all of these little flaws or things I could’ve tweaked to be better.  It’s why I’m so hesitant to release any music at this point, too much of a perfectionist for my own good.  Like you said, though, we’re our own worst critics.  What we hear isn’t always the same as what someone else hears.  I have not but now I’m excited.  The wilder, the better, man.

[nosferatuross-archive]

jerleerenner:

Yes, that’s so true. I have three little creatures and a little human to come home to, and it’s the best feeling ever. I’m glad to hear that. Sorry I missed your show, I was working on some music. I still have a house there, my best friend lives in it, so I always have a reason to return. Is it that painful, being back in LA?

It’s nice, honestly, to come home and immediately feel nothing but love.  Makes an arduous day so worth it.  No worries, dude, there’s always next time.  I hope your own musical endeavors are going well.  Painful feels like such a dramatic way to put it but I guess, in a way, it is kinda painful.  I kept my house, as well, I couldn’t part ways with it.  It still, to this day, feels surreal that I even moved to Royal but I am glad that I did.

[nosferatuross-archive]

rylchelsey:

Yes, that was a frightening experience, to say the least. Glad we got to the bottom of that. Thank you, though! It’s a pretty special time, actually but, quite bittersweet.

Really? It sounded like a fun time to me, though that’s subjective.  I just love food, hellish sickness be damned, so there’s that.  Again, congratulations.  I’m really happy for you and can only imagine the type of joy you may be feeling right now.

justmaxirons:

Hello everyone! It’s my birthday today, but since my wife whisked me away on a surprise trip, I can’t be around to celebrate with you on the day. I’ll be back this weekend to throw a proper party, but until then, if you want… head over to NSV for drinks and have a great night. They’re on me. 

Hey, man, happy birthday! Wish I had known ahead of time, I would’ve gotten you something totally dope.  Tomorrow, for sure, I’m going gift hunting.  Better late than never, yeah? For real, though, I hope you’re having a superb day and enjoying your surprise trip.  I’ll have a drink or two in your honor.
