But seriously there is like way too many and I have most likely left someone out, which I apologize for. :/

Have you attended/plan to attend any Wizard Rock concerts?: I was at an OBatR/Nifflers/TRL concert back in March, which was my first show. Then I will be seeing Whompy/JFF next weekend and Whompy/TRL/Mudbloods in July.

How many Wrock CDs do you own?: Not many, only 6 I think

What’s your Hogwarts House?: Slytherin

What are some of your favorite HP characters?: No question, Remus Lupin! :D But I also like Bella, Sirius, and Luna. Snape has been growing on me too.

What are some of your favorite HP pairings?: Remus/Sirius mostly, but also Snape/Lily, Draco/Harry, and Harry/Hermione

Do you do any fanworks (art, fic, icons, etc.)? If so, what?: I make icons and write fic sometimes. My icons are over at shadow_icons

Name: Lauren. Sometimes I say "not the famous one!", other times I'm "the other one".

Age: 19

Location: Scotland!

Favorite Wizard Rock Bands (group artists): Ministry of Magic, Draco and the Malfoys, RiddleTM, The Moaning Myrtles, The Shrieking Shack Disco Gang, Blibbering Humdingers...

Favorite Wizard Rock Singers (single artists): Tonks and the Aurors (<3 Steph), Split Seven Ways (<3<3<3 Zoe), Gred and Forge, The Whomping Willows...

Have you attended/plan to attend any Wizard Rock concerts?: I went to Potter Rocks in Birmingham UK, October 2007. Not much wrock has been happening in the UK, but we're working on that :)

Have you attended/plan to attend any large Wrock events (Yule Balls, Wrockstock, etc)?: Yes! I was just at Wrockstock II. It was awesome.

How many Wrock CDs do you own?: Actual CDs, I counted 14.

What’s your Hogwarts House?: Ravenclaw, although at Wrockstock I did display some alarmingly Hufflepuff tendencies.

What are some of your favorite HP characters?: Luna, Hermione, Harry, Draco.

What are some of your favorite HP pairings?: Harry/Draco, AS/S, Harry/Snape, Teddy/James Jr. However, I'll read just about anything. Except Draco with either Ginny or Hermione. Gahhhhh.

Do you do any fanworks (art, fic, icons, etc.)? If so, what?: Well I've tried to write fic, I've made a few icons, and I run an ezine called Cauldrons and Chocolate Frogs which is presently on hiatus due to staffing and participation issues. However, hopefully it'll be back up soon. Also I'm working on a website :)

What non-HP fandoms are you into?: Twilight, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, High School Musical.

What fandoms/characters/pairings do you talk about most often in your journal?: HP and High School Musical, mostly!

What do you post about outside of fandom?: Not that much, I have a personal journal...I have a tendency to ramble though, and I get off-topic quite a lot. So what starts out as fandom can end up as random. Just a warning XD

What are you looking for in an LJ-friend?: (this can include anything from 'someone who'll comment' to 'someone to RP with' etc.) - Um, someone who is awesome, who knows what I'm talking about. Someone who supports - and may want to get involved with - the Harry Potter Alliance is always a plus ;)

Other favorites: Books? Movies? TV? Music?: Well I love to read, I just finished "The Host", Stephenie Meyer's new one, but my book collection goes from Meg Cabot (The Princess Diaries, plus most of her books, except the Mediator series) to Thomas Harris (Silence of the Lambs etc), Jeffery Deaver (The Bone Collector etc.) to Emma Blair (romance. hehe), including books on the Mafia's first 100 years, Auschwitz, Buffy companions, and a bunch of trivia compendiums.

Movie-wise, I love Hilary Duff (sorry), Gone In 60 Seconds, High School Musical, I Want Candy, Secretary, Saved!, Girl, Interrupted, and anything with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. On TV, I am addicted to Grey's Anatomy, The Big Bang Theory (<3!) and Chuck. And music-wise, I love wizard rock of course, the Goo Goo Dolls, Bowling For Soup, Skillet, Linkin Park, Death Cab For Cutie, Ashley Tisdale, Cooties Attack and Take That (their comeback stuff is AWESOME).

Anything else?: I have a bit of a bad habit of referring to people just by their first names. It must sound really pretentious sometimes like I'm name-dropping...I'm not, I swear, it's just that I belong to a skype chat which has a LOT of wrock bands in it...and so half the people I talk about are my friends, and the other half (arguably the better-known half), people in the chat are friendly with and talk about in first-name terms XD So please don't hold that against me!

[cafpows.livejournal.com]

OMG! You're THE OTHER LAUREN! <3 I've talked to you in the Skype Chat! :D I'm Jamie of WZRD! Mind if I add you?

Lauren

[aparecium13.livejournal.com]

Name: [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com], but you can call me "Roo", if you like.

Age: 20

Location: The U.S.

Favorite Wizard Rock Bands (group artists): The Brothers Black, Ministry of Magic, Draco and the Malfoys, The Mudbloods, The Shrieking Shack Disco Gang...there are more, but my brain seems to have leaked out the side of my head and I can't recall them.

Favorite Wizard Rock Singers (single artists): Split Seven Ways, Malfoy Manor, Oliver Boyd & the Rememberalls, The Weasel King, am just starting to get into The Remus Lupins...and again, there are more but they aren't coming.

Have you attended/plan to attend any Wizard Rock concerts?: Unfortunately I have not attended any thusfar, but am hoping I can make it to Wrock Chicago!

Have you attended/plan to attend any large Wrock events (Yule Balls, Wrockstock, etc)?: Sadly, I was unable to make it to Wrockstock this year, but I'm definitely planning to go next year.

How many Wrock CDs do you own?: 12 by my count.

What’s your Hogwarts House?: I'd say I'm a Ravenpuff, though I've taken so many online quizzes, I've been told I belong to each house at least once. I'm planning on sorting (hah) it out soon.

What are some of your favorite HP characters?: Severus Snape, Hermione Granger, The Weasleys, Neville "Basically The Man" Longbottom, The Marauders, Lily Evans...actually, there really isn't a character that I hate reading, to be quite honest.

What are some of your favorite HP pairings?: I'm not much of a cannon shipper, and I'll give pretty much everything a try once. If you'd like specifics, feel free to ask.

Do you do any fanworks (art, fic, icons, etc.)? If so, what?: Presently, I'm working on ficlets (of a pairing I never thought I'd write for), and I have a big story brewing on the back burner about 7th year at Hogwarts.

What non-HP fandoms are you into?: I've dabbled in a few Real Person fandoms, Buffy, Supernatural, Across the Universe, Pirates of the Carribean (excluding AWE) and a few random/obscure/virtually-unknown films.

What fandoms/characters/pairings do you talk about most often in your journal?: This is a brand new fandom-centric journal that I'm using at the moment, and so I haven't written much. Right now it's mainly Potter-centric (though other fandoms and some real-life stuff will probably pop up from time to time); I plan to explore meta, random happenings, and general ramblings/rantings that pop into my head.

What do you post about outside of fandom?: I think I somewhat answered this question above, so, I'll spare you from being redundant.

What are you looking for in an LJ-friend?: Considering this journal is new, I'm just looking for friends, period. Mostly people who are made of win. Although, people who are awesomesauce are also acceptable. People who are involved in fandom, because I, literally, have one person to squee with. And so I figure...if I'm spending a good chunk of my time on eljay doing fandomy things anyways, I'd like to be able to talk to other people about it. Also, I'm relatively new to fandom and all that comes with it (which is just my luck: The series bloody ends and I jump on the bandwagon now; but seeing the Wrock community as active as it is gives me hope it's not too late) and so I'd like to talk to some "seasoned" fandomites. People of the creative persuasion. Someone who'll comment. Someone who shares my interests. Someone who sparks conversation (intelligent & otherwise). I'm pretty open at the moment.

Other favorites: Books? Movies? TV? Music?:

Books: I'm currently trying to finish reading Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides (also wrote The Virgin Suicides).

Movies: I'll watch pretty much anything, excluding war films and westerns. Specifics? Ask and ye shall receive.

Music: Eclectic.

TV: Buffy, Supernatural, Boston Legal, the Food Network, Pushing Daisies, VH1, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, Late Night With Conan O'Brien. Amongst others.

Anything else?: I'd just really like to meet some new people. And congratulations! This is the first friending meme I've ever done.

"Also, I'm relatively new to fandom and all that comes with it (which is just my luck: The series bloody ends and I jump on the bandwagon now; but seeing the Wrock community as active as it is gives me hope it's not too late)"

I'm not 'seasoned' exactly, I got into online fandom in a major way in August '07 XD so I waited til the end too. But I quickly discovered a big group of awesome people, so I'm sure you will love it too :)

And I LOVE your taste in music :P *goes away to add you*
