William Beckett - Tumblr Posts
Twinsies! ;)
I spent the weekend in the UK and it was fantastic. Thanks to @mjkeysz, Seth, Faith and the whole #wbukcrew. Until next time!
Occasionally I check twitter, and occasionally there are interesting things there...
[Image ID: A screenshot of a tweet by Gabe Saporta reading "Pretty stoked about Riot Fest. Any special requests?". The first reply is by kal (bat emoji) @/DecaydanceBats and reads "Snakes on a plane with William. Do it for the gays Gabriel this is our last shot". Gabe Saporta replied "You know I would do anything for you, right?". The first tweet in the exchange is from 4:41 pm on 17 May 22 and the replies are marked 1 hour ago. End ID]

So I decided to try stripping the blue tones out to see what this would look like with more natural coloring. It still looks weirdly off because I think there wasn't that much color left underneath the blue, so even boosting the saturation didn't really make it quite normal-looking, but here's my best try with what I can do on my phone:
Then I messed around with it a little more on my laptop and boosted the contrast and messed with the tones a little more, though it’s still flatter than I’d like, especially in the background.
Well, it was a fun experiment at any rate, and it does look a touch more true to color! To get it really realistic, I think you’d have to color it section by section, almost like colorizing a black and white picture, but I don’t really feel like messing with Pixlr right now so I think I’m going to call this good enough. Enjoy! :)
If anyone has a link the the “Bring It (Snakes on a Plane)” performance from the VMA 2007 Fall Out Boy Suite let me know. Seem’s like its been lost as the MTV overdrive site no longer has it.
Forever upset that we never got a recorded version of this bop.
Cobra Starship - (Bring It) Snakes on a Plane @ FBR15 Concert (live)
I think this is the only thing from the DVD that isn’t on YouTube already.
Trying to clear up space on my phone
Someone please find the full performances of “Church of Hot Addiction” and “Bring It (Snakes on a Plane)” WITH Travie McCoy and William Beckett from the 2007 VMA Fall Out Boy Suite. They used to be on mtv overdrive..
