Conversation Starters: Jackson Rathbone

Breaking News!

It turns out that Jackson Rathbone, portrayor of Jasper Cullen, is going to be performing with his band, 100 Monkeys. The show takes place in Vancouver on September 12th, and I think it would be a perfect opportunity to test out some of these conversation starters. You are all invited to come watch me make an ass out of myself as I shout them wildly toward the stage.

Method 1: Common Ground

Hey Jackson,

-Sometimes I take pictures of myself with my guitar, too. Would you like to pose with my guitar?

-I'm in a band too! We're playing a show next week. Invitation only. You are invited.

Method 2: Feign Ignorance

- Hey, that was a great show you played tonight... do I know you from somewhere?

- Hey, what are you doing after the show? What was that? Meeting up with your costars? What costars? Oh. Hell-o

Method 3: Mel Style

-Sometimes, I imagine you and RP doing a duet. Sometimes, I am the only one watching.

-When I think of you I cut myself.

- Is it hard to fit one hundred monkeys on stage? What if they are on fire? What if I could duplicate myself? Would you like having 100 of me on stage? Can I have 100 of you -- (this is when security drags me out)

Method 4: Lyrical Style

- In the center of the city of the night, I'll be waiting for you (The Killers)

- I would love to be the lucky one on chill avenue, who can keep your heart warm when ice has turned it blue. (The Clash)

Method 5: What would actually happen

- Hey Jackson, can I have your autogra-Aahg! (I see RP standing behind him, faint, am dragged away

- I brought my ukulele to play you a song. (I play, Jackson faints, is dragged away)

- Jasper! I mean shit.

- Bring me sweet Texan love! (Nothing happens)

- ... (lots of giggling, very little progress)

"Did you really just ask me about Edward's penis?"

Anyone? Anyone?
