Perhaps they enjoy the music more than the mood, or perhaps being in the presence of cult-of-personality vocalist Davey Havok (although guitarist Jade Puget certainly has his admirers) pushes the clouds away for brief moments. The positive vibes made even the fan club's official slogan, "through our bleeding, we are one," (frequently chanted) seem like a good thing.
