The "Initiation" (E.A.)
Mike [F.M.] made Seth [SL] listen to "Hold It Together," so he could experience and understand why we avoid Mike Shinoda's music all the time. (Brian was fronting, but he couldn't do anything about it.) He listened to "About You (feat. blackbear)" and got a taste of the shaking and panic.
Upon finishing that warm-up, Seth no longer wanted to listen to "Hold It Together." He said he understood, but Mike was not having it.
Eventually, the song played. After the ordeal, I said to him, "congratulations! You are now an official member of Mint Phalanx."
Is this a real initiation? No, that would be sick. Every headmate said they won't panic. Every headmate failed. Reanna's worry is stronger than all of us. Curiosity killed the factive.
